Refinance your house?...<g>.

Tom,

I know you were teasing but it was a painful experience I will never repeat.

ncidently, I know an attorney who shorted Amazon last year at 140...2000 shares...phew...she was forced to cover
at 215. Anybody who shorts this stock has brass...

My shorting days are over. I try to buy and hold although not as much the speculative nets.

It appears your attorney friend only lost $150K. I wish I had got away that easily.

Glenn

Tom, like Glenn I shorted Amzn @ 40. I lost close to 100k then made almost $750k hedging it down.
Amzn is not a conventional stock. Its a license to steal! After the Xmas season, I'll do it again. Trust me on that.
