I see 2/3 of AMZN's short interest has been covered.

Probably a bit safer to short the pig now.

From Briefing:


10:36 ET Amazon.com (AMZN) 132 3/4 +2 3/8: Shares of online book/music retailer continue their impressive move, recovering most of ground from sharp sell-off in overall group. Appears a short squeeze may be playing major role in move. From 6/98 to 7/98, almost 4 mln shares (or approx. 2/3 of all AMZN shares shorted) have been covered. Stock's Short/Interest ratio down to 1.2 days from 4.2. As we write this update, stock beginning to retreat, as Dow (-17) and Nasdaq (-4) drop into negative territory. (Chart)
