There has yet to be an analyst report that states projected revenue, projected gross margins, projected marketing expenses and the other figures necessary to estimate an earnings or loss when it come to Amazon. I find this very curious. << Glenn, there's not enough history on this company to project all this data. It's an emerging industry, etailing, alone. Believe me, i share those same concerns. Here short-term fundamentals might deteriorate some. But i think they will consistently make or beat the estimates as they have before. This is a well run company with a smart management team, and i wouldn't bet against them. But all in good balance, it don't see this is the case, analyst hyping the stock. Why would the competition be making massive investments into this, if it were as you say? And i'm talking about the excess of sales price over the delivered cost of the product sold. And i anticipate revenue growth to slow adventually too, it would be unrealistic to grow at this pace indefinately.
