been expecting y2002 bankruptcy from AMZN for several months first mentioned this belief in January (either on Porch or QBuyRange thread) they had to travel to Europe to sell corp bonds in Jan2k the US brokerage houses are wise to their story by now their losses are accelerating, investments slowing down selling convertible bonds has no become difficult, bad sign why convert a bond to a share when it is slipping badly? ultimate bear sign: Bezos is loading wares on the shipdock now their bonds (and other internet cashburners) are having to sell with higher yields sounds like regression toward junk bond status to me other Porchsters will surely remember my two previous AMZN ruination expectations, not that it is required a massive shakeout coming later this year expecting buyouts, consolidation, liquidations, parceling really quite a factual and reasonable Barrons article expect money to head into real leaders like QCOM, JDSU, ELON, etc / JW
