>>AMZN is not an Internet stock. Remember that two year old cliche: information superhighway? Can you hear it? It's information. Information. Read it again. Information. Not business, not retail, not commodity. << Please define "Internet stock" then. If you think only pure internet plays like PSINet & Yahoo are internet stocks then I disagree. A company like Amazon that lives and dies based on the success of the internet is by definition an Internet stock.

First thing this morning I tuned in C.N.B.C. and the fact that S.D.T.I. had lost 35 % today was being discussued. The speaker joked that this was actually one of the only internet companies that was actually making money. I think Yahoo actually will make a lot of money soon. The competition for AMZN will be the fiercest. For the market to value this as high as Barnes And Noble and Borders really is ridiculous. This can only be a mania. Should we jump on? Mike
