SEC: Google may sell its 5% AOL stake
Late 2005 Google has come up with $1 billion secured 5% of AOL and keeps it until today. Up on the small side that the AOL page still displays Google banner – what already bad in the balance was – it has noticed much of this but quite expensive investment. Yesterday Google has again now at least legally possible AOL repel.
1. July 2008 Google may resell its 5% stake – the right of first refusal is the major shareholder of time Warner. Although Google has expressed no plans to sell AOL, but you really need not do providers and portal operators. The advertising deal for the next years will be in place and the AIM talk integration can certainly continue without AOL component.
I don’t think Google AOL will sell, at least not in the near future, but may at some point even umschwenkt and could secure even more shares. I think just always still not that Google takes $1 billion in the hand only to continue to own banner show. AOL would certainly be a good support if you one day should go in the provider market [GoogleNet];-)
