Hey, stop egging on people to short a stock that just had a major breakout. No matter what your fundamental prejudices are, you just don't sell stocks that is breaking out like this. If you are negative on AMZN (and many people are BTW), simply short the stock. Put your money where your mouth is! And the same goes for Victor Lazlo, the double agent.

<< Why one would one pay 150$ for a company that is not even making money yet? HWP made pretty good profit and was down 6$. AMZN said they'll sell cameras on the net and went up 22$. Is HWP missing something here, maybe they should forget their great R&Ds and start buying cameras for inventory for sale on the Internet. >> jach, the dirty term here is "pass-through." AMZN has huge "pass-through" of revenue to the makers of the products it sells. Pass-through is anathema to any company. AMZN really does not add any value to these products, and until it does, buyers will not pay nearly enough to amzn for amzn to make any profit. Victor
