>> Do you pay any attention to environmentally-oriented companies/industries? I do, but not for investment. There are very few public companies in the environmental field. And generally they are construction / engineering companies. Actually most large projects are environmentally destructive, anyway. and the whole field is usually mired in litigation. One reason the public is more accommodating to environmental protection is that fewer people are directly employed in polluting industries. So if they lose their jobs, not as many people sympathize. Besides, the US continuously exports more and more of the mining and chemical commodities work to countries with lax regulations.

>>>I do think Amazon has a bright (if distant) future. >>> Agreed. But the stock has a bleak future. The romance phase for AMZN is over. They will be valued on mundane stuff like earnings and sales growth from now on. I still say $30 by 12/31/2000 --Olu E.
