>>any comments on the wisdom of shorting YAHOO? I think its a very bad idea...like shorting AOL in 1993-94.

>> any comments on the wisdom of shorting YAHOO? << I trade YHOO both long and short. My last trade was a short position that I opened yesterday. Along with my YHOO short, I also opened a short position in XCIT. I only hold short positions for a maximum of 5 days; if the direction goes against me, I always close it out and either go long or short at a higher tick, depending on how the L2 looks. Money can be made both ways in these stocks; just don't hold a short that has gone awry. Re: AMZN from 59 to 100+ earlier this year.
