Where was he when it was at 85???????

Hello? it's a smart call by Blodget. As far as Amzn is concerned, he sees:

1. 64M shares in the float
2. of which Janus owns more than 16M; (the total instituion ownership is about 70% of the 64M)
3. Short interest is over 15M.
4. He targeted $150 this time,(from $110-yesterday's closing) and giving a good/popular X'mas reason. It's only a $40 call(unlike the $400 price target in 11/98).

Buying shares and calls, as well as telling private ML clients to do the same, most likely.
