Two Babes, Double Date them both: BNBN and BKS, my philosophy, when you have a parent company and a spin off (out), (TRACKING STOCK) good news means buy both back and forth, you have to remember what is now finally being said about the Internet, like everything else, ITS BRANDS BRAND IDENTITY BRAND NAMES, Investors are going to coninue to mix and match and get confused too, what news is good for one, usually helps the other, by either sympathy, confusion, or "connection". I predict these are the bottoms, I am buying more tomorrow. I am, Truly yours, -Crystal ball

The article "Barnes and Noble fight back" on the June Fortune magazine is quite positive. BKS has much more book titles than Amazon. BKS should be able to go back to 30's level soon. Having Ingram or not, BKS will do just fine. When people get to know Amazon's bubble is going to burst, fundamentals will mean something then. No one seems to notice that Barnes & Noble's share of the U.S. book market is 15%, while Amazon's is just 2%. cgi.pathfinder.com
