Hey HJmorris, Amazon had an intra-day swing of over 10 percent today. How do you like the volatility? And a question for everyone out there: Volatility in all stocks, especially internet stocks, seems to be increasing in a parabolic curve. Last monday most of them dropped 20 percent in only a few hours. HOW VOLATILE CAN THESE STOCKS GET BEFORE THEY RIP THEMSELVES APART? 30 percent up and down within a day? 70 percent? How about an average day where EBAY opens at 100, drops to 5, climbs to 200 and falls to 99 1/2 within 30 minutes? At what point will people realize that everyone has literally lost their mind in this sector?

So you expect a correction ? I thought that's what we had last week. All the earnings coming out seem to be exceeding expectations. Thanks Anindo
