I've have noticed the opposite. Barron's readers are weekend investors and follow blindly anything they recommend, Internets and Airborne Express being the most recent. The readers also sell on the articles. This week was a sell off of the internets (despite the sucker rally Friday). Last weekends major article was a panel of experts predicting the future. The experts disagreed on EVERYTHING except the Internets (primarily e-commerce) were way over valued.

Every week I have to fight to find a Barron's for sale (I love to see the market react to their articles). They sell out every weekend within a 10 mile area of my home. In fact, this week I was unable to find a Barron's ANYWHERE. I guess buying one day after they come out is to late.

What was the negative article about Amazon? Was it a prime article or hidden away? I hope it was negative.

Anyway, all I need do is watch the open and I have my answer, the weekend investors follow their investing bible to the letter.

Cheers,
Bob
