AMZN showed some weakness at the close.. As the market went up 150 points, Amazon didn't go up a dime. (this was after the market was already at 150) I also didnt see a lot of large blocks on either side, it really seems like the only people left are retail investors. Could the momos and the vinik gang be gone? If so, what's holding the stock up now? Nobody left to sell?

I will tell you who ignited this rally. It was the Japanese financial ministry using public money to buy future contracts on Nikkei and subsequent short covering rallies. Why did they do it? Over the weekend, Trader Bob Rubin twisted Miyazawa's arm in no uncertain terms. The fact that Bob Rubin and and his Goldman Sachs buddies are dying to cash out has nothing to do with it.... NOT!!!!!!!!!!! I tell ya, you better not stand between these greedy SOB's and their pots of gold.
