How many of these same "financial analysts" also had buy recommendations on eToys, Pets.com, Webvan, et al until the bitter end or at least until it was obvious what was going to happen with those companies? (I'm not saying that I know, but if we looked, I think it would be a lot.)

The more I learn, the more incredible I find the "buy" recommendations from financial analysts, with the current exception of Prudential, which doesn't have the underlying underwriting conflict. This allowed Suria and allows Rowen to speak the truth.

>Amazon still has plenty of supporters who expect the company to eventually join the handful of profitable Internet companies, such as auction firm eBay. According to one survey, 16 of 31 financial analysts who follow Amazon still recommend buying the stock.


James,

You are not really using analysts as a guage for the number of supporters? You have to be kidding me<G>
