Maybe they are, but that isn't what your post was about. You are actink like a loose cannon the last couple days, rolling all over the deck and firing in random directions. You're putting up a string of Chicken Little posts, and I think you should acquaint yourself with the plan before you doom it to failure. Amazon hasn't failed at taking any category so far. Tell us when that changes.

Talk about painting the tape- what the hell is up with AOL? The last actual trades were all at 95 1/8th or so when the market closed, but 1000 shares blow through at 97 after 4:30 and suddenly its now closing at 97 1/2 ?? Cramer mentioned this kind of crap happened with Citibank recently. As I recall, the firm involved with that tape painting was just fined pretty stiffly by the SEC. Guess the fines are outweighed by the billions in PROFIT you can make by breaking the rules!

GST,what will destroy the internut.Bubble is : THE INTERNET. Amazon doesn't lie, it's the salesman doing the selling. The more you read about what they want to do (to become brick-and-mortar from the backside in), the more you see there is a 'free-write-off-money' here. I would wait until amazon.com becomes profitable and the free-write-off-money is done. Give credit to Amazon and the internet companies, recognising the moment in history that MONEY IS FREE, zero-interest load and not required to pay back. And don't forget the magical loan-officers (I mean stock pushers) to obtain the kind of free loans. I would prefer walmart.com, walgreen.com, b&n.com, kroger.com, in the end, I think cisco.com and sunw.com and txn.com and msft.com and ... usgov.com are the winners.
