I'd hardly call it speculating.. You've presented evidence that Merrill has now decided AMZN is "overvalued", and in fact they're dropping their bond position from their model portfolio. I would suspect it will be a matter of days before they change their stock rating to "hold."

With the gigantic number of AMZN calls set to expire profitably in less than 2 weeks (thanks prissy), many of which were probably sold naked by Merrill, the timing would be perfect for AMZN to experience a great fall. Remember, the easiest profits are always made when expiration time approaches.. (well, easiest if you are a high-profile analyst that moves markets, and you wait until 1-2 days before expiration)
