I've seen the light. I decided to buy some AMZN(Amazon.Com)
at a very modest PE of 9500(you heard it right 9,500) times
estimated 1999 EPS(earnings estimated to be one whole cent).
Who cares about earnings, when with AMZN, I'm buying a
concept. In fact, with those 1999 earnings of one cent,
I can truly be penny wise. Hurry on board, wise investors
propelled the stock forward another 4 points today. Another
5 points and we'll be at 10,000 times estimated 1999 EPS.
