Perhaps you should learn to recognize a good thing when you see it.

Then act on it. It can make your life richer. Winning is far more fun than whining.


Agreed, fully, 100%.

Thats why I'm taking your Amazon investment, and putting it into a stock of my choice.

After all, when AMZN does tank, perhaps you'll then realize that this fundamentally is what our wonderful system called the U.S. stock market has done. It will have allowed me to take your ill invested money, and then to reinvest it into something worthwhile.

Thanks in advance.

Note that I don't in general consider profitless, money losing concept companies in niche markets and about to get crushed by established players, "worthwhile".

God Bless America

That last part wasn't worded quite right. Let me try again:

Note that I don't in general consider overvalued, profitless, money losing concept companies in a low margin, tangential, and niche market which are about to get crushed by well financed and profitable established players with corollary businesses in the real world, "worthwhile"

These extra adjectives were actually quite critical to sum up my true feelings on AMZN.

>>Owns one or all of the following: CSCO, DELL, PFE, LU, YHOO
The list speaks for itself. Each one of those companies has the strongest fundamentals in its sector. Perhaps you should learn to recognize a good thing when you see it.

How is LU doing recently?
