>>Amazon's greatest single asset is Jeff Bezos. Either you believe his strategy and vision are right or wrong but Jeff doesn't need to spend time trying to convince Barrons journalists. <<
Wizard, you miss the point, it's not just Barrons, He won't talk to any reporter that is doing a negative review of him or his company.
The Seattle Times reporter Helen Chung, Becky Buckman of the Wall Street Journal and now the Barrons gal have all experienced his secrecy or whatever you choose to call it.
Let me tell you what I think. Some of the very best investigative reporters in this country are female. They have a tremendous ability to get under the bull-shit. I think he knows that or otherwise he just doesn't like women.
Ps
>>Either you believe his strategy and vision are right or wrong <<
When Bezo shows or can even tell me, when he'll make a profit I might follow his strategy, but not until.
Trust me on that.

Amazon is not about books. By attacking the company based on comparisons to book
companies and book growth, Abelson and Doherty don't address Amazon's core strategy.


Wizard,

What is AMZN's core strategy?
