>Summit_Host: Craig Ellis: amazon will be the boston chicken of 1998 >Summit_Host: we'll look back and it will fit right in that category what was thestreet.com's summit? who is the above quote attributed to? Or rather, who is Craig Ellis? It is true that everyone knows this stock is a joke, the only question is WHEN WILL VINIK EXIT? If you bet the farm by going short the day before that happens, you will be a very rich person indeed. (And if you were to correctly pick 50 points-out-of-the-money puts that expire in 2 days, you'd give bill gates a run for his money!)
