Amazonians - sorry to have missed the fun. I've been buried in work,
and my trading portfolio has been buried in red. These things happen.
I don't have a clue where things are headed at this point, though
Monday looks like a tradeable bottom on the chart (on the major
market indexes.

If you look at the option implied vols. on AMZN, up there, they're
sky high, and the highest since I've been following the Thing.
I'd be tempted to sell premium on boths sides of Amazon at this
point; except on a very short term (ie, daytrade) basis, I don't
see much percentage in buying puts or calls at this point. Just
too pricey.
