By investing $1 billion in AOL, Google may be placing AOL in a position to go public as a separate company and could reap a big return.
John Battelle If AOL goes public and is seen by by Wall Street and others as the equivalent of a cheap ticket to Google revenue, it may well pop into Yahoo like valuations - to $50 or 60 billion in market cap or more. If that happens, Google's makes a cool $2 billion on its 5% stake - close to what it made when it first went public.
