Yes, for a normal company that actually turns a profit, yes. But since Amazon only produces losses, increasing the number of outstanding shares means their loss per share result will go down- about 5-8 percent it seems. Just a minor detail LOL Glenn

Glenn: Thanks a million!!! A couple of points. 1. Dow and Nasdaq in the 5% range in 2 days, amzn pretty flat -- uh oh 2. reel.com, siberian outpost and cdnow are now cooperatively linking to each others' web sites, ntki merger talks, re-emergence of bert's and ntki merger talks -- it's getting competitive in there. 3. the fed cutting inter-meeting is nice for the short term, but sends a pretty scary message for the intermediate to long term, given that there are probably another 50-100 basis points of cuts out there in the next 6 months. LP You may want to send a copy of the Edgar filing to our good friends at barrons et al.
