Now Glenn, that's stretching things just a bit. I don't recall you discussing "merits" of
AMZN even once from approx. Oct. '98 until at least April of this year. If you would
say, "I have discussed the lack of merits and sometimes the merits (albeit "merits" rarely
if ever) for more than a year", then that would be fairly accurate.


Dwight,

You are correct. I believed that Amazon would go bankrupt and all my fundamental analysis explained why I believed that to be the case. I discussed the lack of merit of the Amazon business model as I saw it.

I have some reasons that changed my mind and I will explain them another day when I can make time. In any case, I did not mean to imply I had stated Amazon was going to be a successful firm in the past. Far from that.

Please to not take that post to mean that was my belief. I used merits in the sense of lack thereof.

Pardon my ignorance due to lack of reading of this thread lately, but are you now an
AMZN bull all the way around, AMZN the stock and Amazon the company? If so, this is
a strange twist to your saga.


I am an Amazon bull now all the way aroound although I have not fully explained the reasons. I did to Mark in a private message and will pot it here too. I am not hiding anything.

Glenn
