My long-term opinion is the same. Thank you. The street essentially just converted a billion in Amazon's debt to equity this week. That's one hell of an endorsement. Agreed!

Amzn has no boundaries to what it can sell on the net. I would think they would add a large auto sales area and perhaps team with someone like Geico to do direct insurance sales and quotes. I see that Brk is selling annuities on the web and I would suppose it is doable for amzn. Buying HomeGrocer.com is a no brainer. They will be able to grow revenue numbers 3-6x faster than wmt or costco did. And folks will persistently argue about profits but the street will simply not focus on that for at least another two years. Aol has a 160 billion cap and has been growing revenues at a snails pace compared to amzn's capacity. Amzn is valued at less than 1/5 of aol. It may not be a fair comparison, but I think amzn is a relative value.
