I am a newcomer to SI and noticed you are in the same situation as myself with AMZN. I
shorted at 285 or 95 post split and really am feeling the squeeze. I agree that the
fundamentals are absurd for this co. and it is just a matter of time before a major
correction, but how long can we wait? It seems daytraders and wealthy individuals are
manipulating this stock due to its small float. When will the party end? AMZN is an
interesting concept but not a winning business model. Margins are to tight and marketing
too high! Hold on tightly. Regards, Keith


Keith,

I have been short this stock since March of 98. My short basis is around 13 with all the splits. I have boxed my position often to reduce equity loss but have lost enough. I will see this through.
