That Amazon would survive. That's our bet It sure seems as though the bet morphed;-) I recall them being touted as a leader in on-line retailing, gaining critical mass with unlimited potential. No wonder anyone thinks followers of the new economy are head cases! Not all of them<VVBG> I should really llok through the archives the post that was our bet. I do not plan to take the time. Anyhow, Amazon will not survive without filing bankruptcy first. That is not true survival is it?

Bill, A few posts of interest: "To:Jay8088 who wrote (19557) From: William Harmond Friday, Oct 2, 1998 12:23 AM View Replies (2) \| Respond to of 136272 That makes two solid posts. Maybe you do believe it. I don't think Amazon will push much past $100 billion. Then again, Walmart is around $120 bil. Home Depot is only around $60 bil I think. Did you notice that Barnes & Noble was weaker than Amazon today?" Message 5893138 "To:M.

He's keeping all his shares and doesn't want to issue more additional equity than necessary. His shareholders (that's me) don't want him to do it either.

Amazon is covered on the sell side by some of the most-senior analysts in the business. They have the perspective. They know the industry. They believe what they write. They don't project current growth ad infinitum. " Message 5888003
