And the shorts did not deserve being destroyed by the suicidal longs who bought into the short squeezes engineered by the brokers, funds and amazon's management and their friendly analysts.

Sarmad, I remember all those "good old days"!!!!

During summer98; Amzn's total float was 10M shares and almost all of the 10M was in the institutions' hands. And the Shorts proceeded to short almost 9M shares by 6/98.

Some of us did not have any idea what was that about at that time; and to be very honest, I wish I did. I would have "talk" until "drop"!
