> The ironic thing with these
huge option grants is that the higher the price of the stock
rises, the more the company will lose (if it needs to go to the
open market to buy the stock at a high price and resell it at
the lower strike price).


Kind of makes you stop and scratch your head...

"AMZN's gross margins went up last quarter, but I don't know if it is because of it claimed any zero-cost inventory benefit."

Based on the information Amazon provides in both their conference calls and their 10Ks, one knows nothing. Heck they had worthless stock they were calling cash for the longest time. They also had securities pledged as inventory collateral that they showed as cash. They still may.
