<<These companies, whether B&M or .com, operate on very slim margins, which is okay when sales are in the billions.>>

David, "very slim margins" are not what investors have priced into this hyper-inflated stock. Based on the absurd mkt cap of this stock, it is clear to me that investors expect amzn to be the 800-lb gorrilla of internet retailing, with the power to raise prices at will. Anything that goes wrong with that will not be good for the stock.

Moreover, the lack of progress for the stock in recent months, indeed the weekness of late, imho indicates that the daytraders and short-term traders who dominate the trading in this stock are getting bored with it and moving on.
