To all AOLers: I started investing in AOL last April when I made it 25% of my portfolio. By November It was 75% of my portfolio and by January my portfolio went to 100% AOL. So AOL has been very good to me. However, as of 2 weeks ago I went to 25% again. I am trying to decide what the top performing stocks will be between now and the end of the year. I think I am going to divide it up between about 5 stocks, I just don't know which 5. I've put together a list of about 18 stocks that I would like to pick the top 5. I would like to see what everyone else's top 5 would be or if they would add any others to the top 18 that I have listed. I will probably wait another 2-3 weeks before I buy them, but make no doubt about it I will buy them, for this period of time will be known as the information age, or how the internet changed the world and the way we do business. All we have to ask ourselves is; will the internet be bigger and a bigger part of our lives in the next 5 years, or will it shrivel up and die, and just be a memory? I think we all know the answer to that one. Everyone should have a portion of their portfolio in the internets. I would just like to know which ones. These are the ones that look the best to me. AOL CMGI ATHM AMTD NITE MSGI QCOM RNWK GNET CNET EBAY EGRP BCST STRM DIR YHOO SCH BYND I can't wait to see which stocks all of you pick. The only thing is I'm not sure how many people will read this post at this time at night. For I would like to see everyone's top picks out of curiosity.
