Indeed... yet one must admit that a company like e-bay, which keeps outperforming most measures seems to be the real essence of whoever meant to say that the Internet would change our lives... Yes, in recent days one could see a huge contrast between stock and financial performance of ebay and amzn. Both internet companies but amzn is negatively exposed to rising inflation via rising cost of goods sold and higher transportation costs while ebay is not. Ebay might actually benefit from inflation, because it collects percentage of the merchandise sales which will be rising especially when the dollar gets hit in the future. The golden rule is : never short EBAY and never short FNM (this socialist outfit will never go bust). Regarding Bush: really scary write up in Barrons, they predict that Bush will pick Bernanke to replace Greenspan. Feel sorry for all the trees. ( and people too ) On the sideline, why do statisticians at BLS use only an adjustment when quality of the product goes up to calculate inflation ? What about when quality drops by 50 %. That would apply to Barrons, the paper is becoming worthless from week to week.
