I suppose y'all are as aware as I of the current market psychology and agree with my statement a few days ago: "Fantastic reports ain't good enough unless they're accompanied by a "and we'll do double that next quarter" statement." This one has to take the cake though: "Amazon.com posted a fourth-quarter loss of $0.55* a share after markets closed on Wednesday. The Wall Street consensus forecast had been a loss of $0.48 a share including goodwill.* [missed by 7½ 15%] "Shares in Amazon.com Inc. [AMZN] strengthened in pre-opening trade on Thursday after the leading online retailer posted a bigger-than-expected fourth-quarter loss but promised to staunch the flow of red ink this year. "Amazon (AMZN: news, msgs) powered 10 13/16, or 16 percent higher, to 80 1/4 in Instinet trading, up from a Wednesday close at 69-7/16. Sheesh...Alski
