Cs, Bob Pasani(sp) on Cnbc was talking about, secondary stock offers coming out by the internet stocks. He mentioned Cdnow, cancelling their offer, but Lycos,Preview Travel, and earthlink still planning to come out. He didn't use the Amzn word but he did say there were several other internet stocks that were also planning dump more shares on the public.
The only thing he said that got my ear was, if these Internet Co's would cancel their plans due to the recent correction in the Internet stocks. He mentioned Yhoo's correction.
When do you think we will get the Amzn correction?

<SAN BRUNO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 5, 1998--M&A West, Inc., a San Francisco-based financial public relations and investment banking firm has established an on-line financial bookstore on its web site, www.mawest.com.

The store is an affiliate member of Barnes & Noble's web site BarnesandNoble.com, and features a handpicked selection of finance and investment related books. The recommended reading list includes the following books: The Road Ahead, by Bill Gates, CEO/Chmn. of Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT), On the Firing Line, by Gil Amelio, former CEO of Apple Computer (NASDAQ:AAPL), High Output Management, by Andrew Grove, Chairman of Intel (NASDAQ: INTC), and Mean Business: How I Save Bad Companies and Make Good Ones Great, by Albert J. Dunlap, CEO/Chmn. of Sunbeam (NYSE:SOC).

Scott Kelly, President of M&A West, stated, "The featured books were selected by myself and two other principals in the firm, combining over thirty-five years of investment and business experience. These selections are an enormous resource of information for the new and experienced investor."

In addition to the bookstore, the site offers discussion forums on publicly traded companies, focusing on small/micro cap and Bulletin Board stocks, a stock quotes page in association with Yahoo! (NASDAQ:YHOO), a list of recommended stock brokers, and client company profiles, including Players Network (OTC BB:PNTV) Casino Journal Publishing Group (OTC BB:CJPG), Mortgage Bankers Holding Corporation (OTC BB:MBHC) and Nerox Holding Corporation (OTC:NROX).

"We looked at a few other co-branding opportunities, including Amazon.com (NASDAQ:AMZN), but we liked the history of quality book selling Barnes & Noble (NYSE:BKS) provides," stated Mr. Kelly. "We hope to pursue future joint-venture affiliations with Barnes & Noble and are always looking for new marketing opportunities to improve our site."

Future plans for the site include a page dedicated to micro cap mutual funds, an investment newsletter page, a financial newsstand, a related financial links page, a micro-cap mutual fund page, and a number of new companies added to our profile list and bulletin board.
