Go ahead and short AOL. I wouldn't. It virtually OWNS the internet
and its still in its infancy. The price is high for a reason.
ATHM is even more forward-looking with only 300,000 subscribers. But I wouldn't bet against that company either. Still I bought ATT instead of ATHM and will always hang onto my software stocks for longer than my nets. Problem is, that strategy hasn't worked in the past. Last year nay-sayers were poo-pooing AOL at $40 a share. Since then it's split twice. It can also now afford to make humungous acquisitions. There was talk about it buying DISNEY.

Apart from that prices will fluctuate and there will be ebbs and flows. And what do I know?

AOL will sign up everyone,
in the world,
and
as the 'Greater Fool' said,
"the net is going to change the way
society moves its bowels."
I am feeling a little
constipated,
at the moment.....
