GST,

Forget about AMZN puts. At least buying them. You know every day last week I was asking three questions:

1- why did amzn interrupt its up-trend on on March 1 and drop from 135 to 121 ?

2- Why are no brokers speaking up for it ?

3- how would amzn do on a day when it gets no help from the market?

I think we have the answers today and they are very favorable to amzn (the stock).

1- the drop obviously seems to have been caused by fears of revenue shortfall. With DLJ re-it today, it seems the problem will be either ignored, disappeared, or explained away.

2- Today they started, and I believe there will be more.

3- amzn's moves are not related to the market. Dow and nasdaq were going thru the roof, amzn did nothing. Dow and nasdaq drop, amzn goes up.

The only thing that moves amzn is brokers, and they started to talk it up. You'll have to wait a couple of months for puts to have a chance.
