Hey wiley I got this from the amazon thread. Yahoo conference call is interesting. Reported good numbers, but mgmt is warning that: 1) growth isn't sustainable 2) 1999 will see slowdown in users on line 3) operating margins won't exceed 30+% 4) warning analysts not get way ahead on expectations With all this investors are likely to sell the stock, but it is crazy out there it is really dependent upon institutions if they want to sell or not. If they decide to sell shorts are in the money which includes me and if not We are back to square one. I think regardless $100 is the price they are aiming for. Then who knows? In the above comments somebody mentioned they are putting the Microsoft twist, I kind of don't agree with that, I think they know the analyst are hyping internet stocks to crazy levels so reality has to sink in and that's what they are trying to do. Good Luck Long or Short Raiders

Wiley: I also remember when AMZN said that they would not be profitable for the foreseeable future and that growth would slow and the stock sky rocketed. I'm short this stock because I think it is a joke that it has a market cap of 14 billion on earnings of 11 million (minus the money market interest). I don't doubt that it will continue to grow earnings but it is ridiculously valued and the market overall is in trouble. If it rallies on this news it will be short lived.
