Kip, You might be right. Well, I still believe that internet issues have a long way to go. Well, why should I worry about the internet issues now? DELL is on fire today and should be expected to break to new high as early as tomorrow. DELL is heading toward 120-130 within next month. good luck, larry!

My heart almost jumped out when amzn moved from 107 to 119 in minutes but stayed firm and did not cover at loss. I hope that internut and esp. bookselling amzn is mortally wounded. Oh well many wrongs before, but I will try to covered at b/e or small loss then reshort higher if it is like today. One thing I feel comfort is time is shorters friend in amzn. Strange at work I have paperloss of 1-2k in one/two days for amzn and did not feel a thing. Now 'jobless' and in front of the tube I almost got a heart attack. Well it is better to play fundeamental and small in that sense to save the time/health. Good luck to amzn shorters tomorrow and days to come. (Feel comfort that Funds did not jump in to buy value amzn so it closed lower - of course just want to be in/out to maximise gain and have few paperloss but far from a pro)

Market up strong today, any reason besides more money inflow ? I do see 80% briefing.com are warnings. Someone said stock droping three times faster than rising, well it took me three days to short IKN from 15 3/8 to 13 5/8, now just one day today it shot up 1 1/8 point. Could anybody explain in details how down/up gaps formed before market open ?
