Eric,re:"play...internet". I am no good in this sport. You need to pick up the game. Watchout though, when the story get too OLD, well, there is always another AMZN, new story, make sure you don't miss the next one. Some poster/players here are really really good, they have new stories almost every week if not day. That's why they are rich and you (or maybe just me) will suffer with NO INFLATION (asset wise). Correct your thinking, it has nothing to do with making money in the business. It's the STORY, STUPID. If you can't, you'll lose. Did someone say AMZN is buying some grocery.com...., learn from the master of the game. The story has to be fresh. Remember, the story has to be: "FRESH". Hit and run. This is not secret on WS. Like the 'small caps' a couple of years ago. Those guys match story to what they are pushing, then they never call you about it again when the story is gone. The internet story is extremely profitable, but it too will get old. Watch for new buzz-words, I think the next thing start hitting the street is 'b2b', 's2s' or something like that.
