>Even if they don't believe the Amazon story, it's in their self-interest to do so. Glenn, I sold all of my Amzn today at 81. Need I say more? The thing that concerns me is if Amzn tips I'd better sell all of my Internet speculation stocks before the swinging door hits my ass. And I was hoping not to have to do it for at least a few months more. James, That is part of my feeling on CMRC too. Amazon bit me on the long side but the lie they made during the conference call may take other related issues down with them. I did not hear the conference call so do not have the exact wording but unless Amazon's management stated books were profitable excluding general and administrative expenses they lied and knew they lied. I am going to lissen to conference call so I may hear the exact words used about books and if they did not exclude general and administative expenses, I am filing a complaint with the SEC. There is enough dishinest on Wall Street but this is too obvious and should be addessed by regulators. In the meantime, I may sell CMRC on Monday. I am not taking chances this lie becomes obvious to the Amazon bulls that have no clue about counting and they start selling internet stocks. Glenn

I filed a complaint requesting the SEC to investigate the profit statements by Amazon.com. This is the form reply when one files a complaint: "Thank you!
