Offshore, You commented that you think I own Amazon shares. I DON'T. I was just trying to understand why this stock in particular is moving so high so fast. What struck me was the 250million in sales in last quarter. In addition, I heard that they hired ex Walmart executives and that got my attention also. I was trying to understand internet stocks with this one example. If I say I don't own a particular stock --I DO NOT OWN IT!! Like the post by LindyBill--I would rather question if you are short this stock - since it got quite a reaction from you. At least I have been stating that I still would not buy Amazon (i don't even know the stock symbol)and would be willing to buy options (calls) on stocks like MSFT and CSCO instead.
