That Washington Post article was a nice piece of prose.

I hope the article doesn't lure in a lot of new investors, at
the current level, but maybe it will. Let's say the Wash. Post
has a circ. of 1 mil. (no clue, and too lazy to go check),
and 1 out of 100 like the story and buy the stock. They,
on average buy 200 shares ($20k), that's a net buy of 2 mil.
shares ... enough to get the stock moving up again. Just
something to consider if you're trading the stock short.

(and the article is so well written, it'll probably go
into each AMZN investor kit ...)

It seems quite likely to me that amzn will soon get into so much debt that they will have no choice but to get bought out for partial or full debt redemption, with no value, $0.00 value, assigned to the stock.

I come to this conclusion based on: the staggering losses and accumulating debt, with entirely no possiblility now of recovery from this death spiral, v. the huge brand name that is very difficult to compete against as long as amzn can get more outside money.
