Based on the report from Robertson Stevens, there are few things which are obvious. 1. The analyst is amazed by the rapid rise in the stock price and believes that they may take a breather. 2. Long term he is very positive on AMZN, AOL and YHOO 3. Currently the only people buying are retail traders (either covering the shorts or buying long) Roger, Thank you for the synopsis. Keith Bengamin has been hyping internet stocks for a long time without using numbers to back up his statements. How in the world would he know what AMZN will be doing long term? They have only been in business short term and are deeply in debt. AOL and YHOO at least do make money. AOL more that YHOO and not YHOO this quarter. However, AOL and YHOO have specific business models and goals. AMZN is just another plain book and music store undercapitalized and lacking retail experience. My point is AMZN does not deserve to be rated with AOL and YHOO. Glenn
