I think I'll glad I can't see late trades or after hour trades. Was anyone just now watching CNBC (6P EST) they were singing AOL's praises big-time on market review. What's his name was saying that AOL is a stock you just have to have in your portfolio. He said, If you buy it now and keep it, not selling when it goes through its ups and downs, that it will one day make you rich." I LIKE this chap. Too bad I didn't catch his name.

One trick I have played with AOL a few times is to sell at the open after (hopefully) buying on a dip the previous day. AOL seems to jump at the open and close below the open price lot of days. Like yesterday I placed orders to sell AOL at a limit of 149 and got filled at 151 3/4 in both my accounts at the open. I bought them back around 147. I am planning to set a limit say 155 tomorrow and if there is a pop you are out and hopefully buy back cheaper.
