It is now time for the faithful to stand up and be counted, as Lise Byer stated.

What can they do? What options do they have?
For the net funds, they have committed 10%(let's just say that) of their portfolios to Amzn;
For the large/small growth funds, maybe far less than 1% of their portfolios.
I don't think that they will sell out right now.

JB took a look of his balance sheets and saw the $1B plus free cash on the last q-reporting date. He then told the elephants: I don't have to sing/dance for you too much right now.

Sarmad, have you ever been to a horse race??
It's common that the first horse out of the gate, gets tired and finishes last. Beaten down by its competition.
How would you like to race against Wal-Mart? America loves the under-dog, so why do you think that they used to bet on Amazon.com??
