Hey Glen,
How about Amazon.com for a short. In contrast to one of my holdings (fgii), Amazon is expected to show a loss of at least 1.00 the next 2 years. FGII figures have been as high as 3.?? in 99', as they get up to full speed.( This is clearly too much money for one company to generate and manage responsibly. If they could sell rigs over the internet and show a loss the stock price would go skyhigh. )
I believe there are many short opportunties around, trying to narrow a few of my selections down. The market as a whole is shakey, asia crisis, slowing domestic growth. I think the year ahead will be interesting. Forecast for S&P earnings growth in 98' is somewhere around 14% while last weeks S&P P/E is 24.
Merry Christmas,RB
