This is not a stock, it's a lure, and the more flimsy it looks, the more dangerous it is. Why would William want to buy something legit when he can make money the new-fashioned way? eb, I hate to do this but I believe that is an unfair attack on William. William is truly honest on this board. I feel he believes strongly in the future of AMZN. William is riding the upside of AMZN and YHOO I believe with great success. Why would he want to go and buy a company that has a smaller rate of return? You, I and many others do not beliive in the future of AMZN. I just do not feel it is fair to accuse William of being unethical. I never met William personally. I do believe he is as ethical as they come from the post he makes on threads. I would agree; who would buy a stock like this? William would and I do not seem him trying to get everyone to go short. I am sure William would be happy to see you and I make money too. I am done defending William. Maybe I will attack him next so I do not look partial <VBG> Glenn

The more obviously a scam of smoke and mirrors it is, the more shorts stop to pick up the cash just lying there in the street, the more the pile of cash will be yanked out of reach. Like Gil said, Who would buy a stock like this? The shorts, that's who. This is not a stock, it's a lure, and the more flimsy it looks, the more dangerous it is. I cannot help it but following your posts. You are able to articulate my gradually developed thought process for the past two months. The trading variables here: elephants, short-interests, float, and the sellers! p.s. elephants = Vinik, Msdw and other trading houses, day-traders as a group, options speculators. JMO.
