We may have 10 years left, not just a quarter or two. But the trading will change character and I think it is already,

I will not be surprised to see Amzn go another 10 or more years at all. Just don't know how many such "sorta preditable" E-plays are left for Amzn/nets. Without a split and the "bond" issue, I don't think that this round is completely over.

Amzn corrected twice, from 147 to 65(Jul/Sep 98) and from 600 to 255(Jan/Feb99); both were far greater swings. Is this the changing character?

Why everyone is panicking with more than 3x revenue grwoth is
beyone me. Cramer has NO patience. He is probably reliving CD in his mind. Too bad.
When evryone starts focusing again on amzn's next q revenues and they come in at 375,
what will the stock be at? I think it will be higher.


Gene,

I believe the big complaint from a lot of the analysts is Amazon is not giving guidance anymore. They claim it is a "moving target." There is no profitability in site and Amazon is lacking in visibility. Analysts dislike projecting a firm lacking visibility. It makes the analyst look bad. It is the job of the CEO to give guidance to the analysts and Bezos is not doing that now.
