All of these companies are rare beneficiaries of increasing returns. Their businesses are snowballing. Just look at their charts. What correction?<< Yes i have and i said to few people i'd be surprised if this stock goes below 100 again and it damn near did last week. But it was a very bullish sign the way it has held up during the market correction. Hell the stocks i been following have all held up good. I didn't realize and was a little socked to see how far the A/d line on the S&P has slipped there. Call it internet mania i guess...well i pay more attention to the good companies and Amzn is going to be a diamond of a stock at least it's looking that way so far in my eyes.

I agree. I think Amazon is the core holding e-commerce pure play. Lucent in public switches, Cisco in internetworking, Microsoft in tools, SAP in enterprise applications, Yahoo in directories, Amazon in e-commerce. All of these companies are rare beneficiaries of increasing returns. Their businesses are snowballing. Just look at their charts. What correction? Its totally amazing... I came up with a profile of the typical AMZN holder. It turns out that they are all CLONES! I'm amazed. AMZN Owner Profile Owns one or all of the following: CSCO, DELL, PFE, LU, YHOO I hate to cut and paste, but I'm afraid that I now have a cookie cutter answer for the cookie cutter investor. Please follow link below. I wish you all the luck, William. I would, however, suggest to you, that there just may be more to investing, than finding the biggest bandwagon available to jump on. :) boards.fool.com
