I understand everything you argue but you miss the point. Even people that get what you say are putting money into AMZN simply because the stock is going up, because there are enough people who dont get it to pass the losses onto.Look at what happened to yhoo. A lot of people only know the stock symbol, that yahoo is a bad ass stock, and that this stock is going up. Greed lets people think like that. In any case, lets face it: The stock market is a game. Those who know how to play make the money. Most stocks balloon upwards from time to time like bubble. Those in the know make money. Those who dont lose money. This happens on both the long and short side of the equation. This is going to be one hell of a earnings season. Dont forget it is not enough to be right about something. The majority of other people have to agree with you as well to make money from it. Let me put it another way. If you are outnumbered by a bunch of monkeys who buy AMZN then YOU WILL LOSE on the short side.
