<<They can fall just as quickly.>> Ditto + ! With Margin tightening, these stocks will fall at an even greater rate than they rose. Lookout Below. Barry

OC, the FED is not requireing brokerages to have 100% cash as you posted. I have heard that most brokerages have not changed their requirements and only a few have tightened much. where did you get the 100% margin requirement? I listened to CNBC and didn't hear that. Regardless of the degree, this will chill the market for these stocks. But the darlings won't crash to the floor anytime soon. I'll stick with my earlier forecast that AMZN will move down to 170.

<< Could this be the "bombshell" that finally brings these flying turds back to earth? >> I think that is very probable at this point. Just recently the short squeeze has gotten so bad that nobody even dared to short the monster anymore. Just look at the chart. AMZN would probably open gap down tomorrow morning and will form the 'island top'. Technicians can draw their conclusion! When the sleaze behind 'AMZN miracle' starts to surface, the entire internut sector could get trashed.
