>Don't know if this was posted or not, but it will probably make this >nutty stock rise tomorrow Not likely. Sounds like four of Amazon's competitors in their "newly found" fields of retail are ganging up on AMZN. It only took one credible competitor to take 50% of Netscape's marketshare away to kill their stock. I doubt if Amazon has 50% left of any market at this point. Barnes and Noble is making quick headway. Methinks that huge 75 call writing today was a massively bearish bet. Remember, the value of those calls was around 16 MILLION dollars. I think this is one of our favorite market manipulators planning their exit in the least obvious method possible.
