"there is no support to hold this stock over 30-35 dollars in the short term." You want to bet? You make good arguments, but again, they are falling on deaf ears. MSPG has positive EPS, AMZN doesn't. Both AMZN and MSPG were downgraded by an analyst as they went skyward. Did that stop the momentum? NO. Like Cramer says, never short a stock on valuation. Is MSPG overvalued? Sure....but not as grossly as AMZN. Which is a better company in terms of customer service? A lot may argue MSPG. Both are positioned very well in their respective niches. Will retail investors buy and hold? You can be sure of this. When will momentum die? WHO KNOWS. I know MSPG is overvalued, but so does everyone else. No need to waste time convincing anyone of this obvious fact. But, you are taking a huge risk if you are short.

HOT TIP: I am hearing information that MindSpring is backing a new internet search engine from Wordcruncher (WCTI). This might be a good time to get in on the ground floor. WCTI is trading in the $3-$4 range with a 3 million share float. You can call WCTI investor relations to back this up. They had news today about strategic partners and I believe Mindspring is one of them. We will see soon. Vince
