Amazon.Bomb

Holding Rationale for AMZN.

Looking at the price performance of Amazon.com over the past two months tells an interesting tale. An August 1st low of $76.12 led to a rally to $100.82 on October 23rd, the day it reported strong earnings (33% increase), on low volume. On October 24th, Amazon.com closed down 12% to $88.73. Today (10/25) it dropped nearly 1%. If we use the price performance of Ebay as an indicator of how AMZN will perform (both rallied on light volume and sold off on strong earnings), we can expect a price of $78 sometime next week. It will be interesting to see how this transpires. Either way, this is a market timing short sale. Use the 10/23 high of $100.82 to stop out.
