sherrie you need to calm down we all want this to tur around NOW, but that don't mean a thing. If your that nervous...sell....but you will be sorry. good things come to those who wait I have given up trying to guess AOL, but I do know it is one helluva stock to own for the long run.... good luck...eat a valium, turn off your computer and come back in a couple month's....you should be happy if you still have your shares.

On a positive note, I re-initiated positions yesterday at 137, and today at 127. Expect it to hold here, but not in the least worried. This is a temporary blip on the radar, and AOL at today's closing price is a bargain.

aol may very well test its previous low at 118 or so. But, don't lose your sleep over it. Buy more or simply just hold on. It will come back soon.

Good Morning Sherrie. just remember that the period of maximum darkness is greatest before the early light. I really have no idea of what the hell that means <g> but remember that AOL is a guerrilla stock that still represents the future which is the Internet! The fundamentals of this company has not changed, only the sentiment towards the Internet's. This should change rather rapidly (hopefully within the next day or so) when people begin to realize that this sector is oversold. Right now I am looking at a rather large margin call which will require me to do a song and dance in an attempt to buy myself some time and wait for this negative downturn to reverse course and head back up. In the long run, AOL should do very well, but I cannot imagine them announcing another split in light of the fact that we already had a split last quarter. Best of luck, David PostScript: What we need here is to maintain some level of positive energy (without deluding ourselves).
