Can you see past your nose?>>

William:

Please stop acting like an arrogant jerk. If you want to post some data, a spreadsheet, analysis -- anything other than the airy fairy utopian generalist cr-p that you (and TMF) thinks passes for analysis, then great -- we can debate that. If instead, you think that
1. you can predict the future better than anyone else and your crystal ball shows amzn running the online world
or
2. the mere fact that amzn trades at a high stock price makes you and amzn right and the rest of us wrong

i'd suggest that
-- you're dead wrong.
-- none of us -- not even you -- knows if amzn will rule the web, be crushed out, or merely be a decent niche player.
-- you might end up looking as perceptive as the visionaries who touted tulip bulbs at the end of the run, the nifty fifty in '73, biotech a few years back, gold etc.

a little humility goes a long way and all you do is assume that NO competitive threat can EVER get in amzn's way.
