Yes, yes . . . if Amazon.com keeps up the splendid tract record at this rapid pace it will reward shareholders with a negative book value in just a couple of years. Now that should be reason enought to speculate the stock up to new highs! We've finally got it figured out: Amazon.com has captured the true essence of Bizzaro World business: the more money you lose, the higher the speculation about why the stock price deserves to move yet higher. The short-sellers are held captives in Bazzaro World as well; the more they sell short with hopes of striking it fabulously rich in ten minutes or at least by next week, the more shares there are to cover when the most nervous of the bunch start a stampede to cover.

NOTE: For those of you who spent too much time reading real text books instead of the more informative and better suited Superman comic books, Bizzaro World is the mirror reality world in which all things and logic are turned inside-out. This should be required reading for the B-schools and all speculators in internet stocks. IMO it's much more pertinent to investing and capital formation than outdated texts such as business management and financial accounting and all those other obsolete studies.
