<<<Happy and smart goes together here. :)))>>> Thanks for the boost. I was really begining to think women of the world were dumb....! LOL I really don't see any serious long term problems arising as a consequence of the margin requirements. last time I thought it would help reduce volatility, but it really didn't. Momentum traders will continue as they have, most longs I know are so used to the volatility that they don't bat an eyelid when it tanks $100 pre split. And the ones I know never ever sell, maybe thats the kind of investors who impart a certain resiliance to these stocks (AOL/AMZN/YHOO). Hence when the price moves up, and I'm sure it will - new money will enter..... I've never really bought and held AMZN except for a few days before the split when impristine motivated me - and yes, I'd like to enter. So if I'm your average re-tailer, I;d enter at around 100.....
