With eBay, the increased float of course reduces the chance of short squeeze. My shorting it is on FA. It made 5c last Q. It is expected to make 5c this Q.

Sarmad, e-bay's short interest dropped to 4M and float increased to 30M in two months. This tells me that the ebay players are different from the Amzn players.

I have ignored the F/A=earnings=growth..totally for the nets trading for more than a few months now. My instinct is that "I don't buy/hold, and don't think F/As" for the net stocks. Maybe we will think about it during 9/99, if the nets just dive!
