I though that you are just trading Amzn like most of us, not bear/bull, just go with the $$$$$ for the short-term.

I think this will become bearish to the stock. It could become "buy the rumor, sell the news". Amazon's timing is perfect - right on the tail end of their coordinated stock sell-off. Notice that the announcement had none of the usual statements like "We expect to see huge growth in the future and appreciation in the stock price, so a split is necessary to make the stock more affordable for our investors." - or some such. Just some stuff about "we are the largest teeny on-line bookseller in the past 15 minutes".
