>>Did you see the story about EBAY's drop in auction items and it's decision to stop posting the numbers?<< I was so busy yesterday that I didn't want to mess with the 'Thing', and Ebay. I personally think that ebay will be more vulnerable and volatile than the 'Thing'. Investors seem to relate better to buying from retail web sites vs auctioneering. So, I'll probably be more inclined to be on taking off the lid on my ebay short shares and be more cautious on Amzn. I believe Amzn still has some more gas in it, at least till Bezos gives us his xmas #'s. He is good shape right now. Xmas expectations. European sales, starting from scratch. The competition slow to start. Forrestor Research, and his excellent pr machine. I think anyone planning on shorting or putting this 'Thing' is nuts. Its just too high risk. Even most bulls know the hit is coming, but please remember. I used to think I was a smart guy, until last may. Most of the bears have lost their asses here, except for the ones that rode it down to, was it 70 last sept? then sold their shorts or puts. Regards, Ps This last few months, has been a hedged day traders dream. Someone mentioned a calming down is coming. I hope not because the fun will end. Then what will I do? I want to become a billionaire too!
