TMF:

Did any of you read the "Ask the Fool" article in Sunday mornings paper on Amazon.com?
"...Investors might be overestimating the value of the brand. After all, may point out that the rules of
the Internet are unwritten. Whether the Amazon.com brand will have staying power remains to be
seen. Even some Amazon bulls believe that the current share price already incorporates most
positive factors, WITH LITTLE TO NO MARGIN OF SAFETY REMAINING."

I've been reading your boards for a while now, and it seems to me that every time the tone gets
negative the MF's come on strong supporting A.com./ yet I get up this morning and read their
article and feel I've been shot in the foot. Couldn't they have been expressing those opinions to us
here, rather that have us see them in the press, as a surpise?
Opinion please.

Perhaps the NYT's correspondent would learn something if she read your response?

I hope it gets to her.
