BKS was upgraded to outperform by Goldman and it went up 11/16th this morning....just goes to show you what a joke the market place is. You, have a company like BKS with sales exceeding its market cap, and better than expected EARNINGS, and a major Wall street upgrade , and what do you get? A little blip up. Now, take AMZN with sales 1/15th of the market cap, No earnings , no forecasted earnings for '98 and it can jump 3-4 points at any given moment on no news, or on jibberish like the following , from yesterdays press release: >>"Amazon.com is a perfect example of why," Polishook said. "We're building for market share right now, not profitability. So, too is Amazon. The more money they lose, the more successful they are.<< cbs.marketwatch.com. Don't you love it. New way to define success!!! Sheeeeesh! What is the world coming to. BUY AMZN! IT will NEVER GO DOWN! RAH RAH RAH!!!!!GO TEAM........yeccchhhhhh..........;^)
