Really Low!! ZERO trades from 13:15 to 13:28... one bid, 10 offers looking at each other, then eventually 3 bids, 10 offers... no trades.. is this a sign of exhaustion at a top?

There was some comments about portfolio managers loading up on AMZN for window dressing. We may have seen that buying at the end of last week with a little more added today. We'll see on 4/1 if it was just fluff buying. The article on the mail-order part of e-commerce was very interesting. I wonder if the brick-and-mortar stores can leverage their real world presence by having pick-up at their local store. This would save considerably on shipping costs but would require state taxes (which wouldn't be a real factor in 3-4 years when all these e-commerce retailers have to handle state taxes).
