All this analyst crap is mostly double-speak, somewhat like a Greenspan speech. (When Greenspan said last year, 'We at the FED do not target inflation in the capital markets' the Street understood him to mean that is precisely what the FED was doing.) Key: "Hold" = "buy" "Accumulate" = "lighten up by selling some" "Buy" = "Yeah, it's rising but keep accumulating more" "Strong buy" = "We're selling at this top, so take it off our hands." Only a "sell," as was issued today for Amazon, probably can be understood literally by anyone with an English dictionary.
