Christian1310,

The point of the comment was that AMZN is no longer marked as non-shortable as it was for some time. Not that being short AMZN is a recommendation of mine. You're on your own for recommendations.

Good luck with the lions.

(go lions!)

<<AMZN is shortable but with the bid at $141? Which is $423. There are better shorts out>>

Yes, but are there companies with a higher market cap that lose money on each sale (as opposed to companies which make money on each sale, but have a net loss due to overhead costs)?

Not short, just amazed at the price.
