Their business model started with selling books at a loss, expanded to selling CDs at a loss. Perhaps they should sell money at a loss (send everyone $1 who sends them 95 cents). Their market cap would probably surpass MSFT. As far as I am concerned, the higher AMZN goes the better. At some point, AMZN is going to make someone a lot of money on the short side.

AMZN is awesome. I think that even the ones with deepest pockets on this thread can't afford to short this pig. After the issue split and the float goes up to 60 million shares, I guess that we will see short interest about 40 million. They just never learn! larry!

Stock already bid up at 258 preopen. Probably reach that in a week or two. Crazy! To: xcr600 (16134 ) From: Christian1310 Wednesday, Dec 16 1998 10:25AM ET Reply # of 16621 Where to, AMZN ? When I remember how easily price targets have been taken out in thge past.... then $400 could read $550-700... AMZN hit 289. AMZN Market cap 15.25 B !! I'm stunned! Today, AMZN hit $420+ C.
