Funny comment, William. I'm not sure if you're jesting or if you actually believe what you just said:

I think this correction will take months. Later I think we will look back at these these prices and realize they were like buying Dell at thirty-five cents.

Dell was earning 75 cents per share per quarter at this market capitalization. Amazon is losing 90 cents per quarter (30 cents now thanks to the split scheme). How do you figure?

William -- <<I think this correction will take months.>>

The stock may bounce once or even twice along the way but how can this take months instead of days? There is no basis for identifying 'support'. Wasn't it you who said support was at 160 and I asked 'why, cause it has been there one whole day?' and you said 'yes'?

As for the 35 cents, I don't think it will go that low (just kidding). But based on the facts it seems the trend is down. As far as I can see, any thought of this thing going into a meaningful counter-trend rally are just wishful thinking.
