How fitting as we are witnessing a double top in "scamazon", every add above each bullish prediction of the most overvalued stock in the history is the competitor barnesandnoble.com. Buy the Buy, Barnes and Nobles internet mkt share increased in Feb by 360% and scamazon's decreased by 28%. No wonder they are desperately sending out $5 buck coupons (who needs profits or improving margins. Lets give away more money. You bulls are correct, why would I want to buy anything from a fly by night business like Barnes and Noble when I can pay more for the superior service "e-commerce portal" like scamazon.

William-<This relief rally crap your spewing is nothing more than face-saving bullshit.> No, actually, it is a widely accepted, pretty much self-evident, simple statement of fact. There was concern over rising bond yields amplified by worry over the jobs report which seemed increasingly overdone. A relief rally was not only logical but increasingly anticipated -- and we had a pretty good one over a two day period. There is nothing much to dispute on this score. In itself, a relief rally says nothing either way about what comes next -- but I have been saying that in this case it seemed well timed to momentarily break the bull-bear stalemate in favor of the bulls. As for the personal stuff -- you are a little on the pompous side but I will try a little harder to resist the urge to make you look silly.
