John: I have no problem with the growth strategy of Yahoo or Amazon. What I have a problem with is their promotion a valuation method that ignores marketing expenses while at the same time throwing most of their expenses into this category. You say you have read the 10Ks and 10Qs. If these are so detailed, perhaps you could tell me under what category payments to Amazon's associates are under? Are they under cost of goods sold? Why is this not made clear in their filings? Do you think these payments should go under marketing? If so, why? Is it also Amazon's contention that they could stop payments to their associates and maintain the same amount of revenue? BayPig
