Do not open until December 25th, 2010

Amazon is, without a doubt, the poster child for e-commerce. Like its namesake river, this incredible entity is the largest drainage basin in the world -- for consumer's wallets. 171% growth during a rough 2009 and nowhere to go but up in 2010.

lol, largest drainage basin in the world. not sure I'd want my company described that way. I see AMZN as being tethered to the market -- or perhaps the other way around -- so if 2010 is a good year, then you'll be right.

It has already skyrocketed eleven cents...how could I possibly be wrong?! sadfsaefasfdas

Fascinating piece about how the iPad can be a positive driver for AMZN, and some juicy predictions

Interesting to note that the stock has now made a round trip from the end of 2009. In that way it is somewhat like a proxy for the Nasdaq, but certainly there is a lot of room for growth.

Man I am mad at myself for not getting to AMZN either a) when it was down to 108 or so after earnings (what a bogus initial reaction that was!) then when it got back to 140 at my last comment.

Investors who took your advice (well they would have done really well to WAIT then take your advice, but either way) will have a nice xmas present indeed.

Damn...sitting at $166.11 as of my close. Anxious to see how this shakes out and glad it made its mark. Waiting for a down day as this stock should hit at least $175 by Christmas. Geez, I'm starting to sound like Cramer!

An interesting look at how Walmart is doing its best to encroach on Amzn's turf.

Proved to be a very prescient coverage. Today a splashy news story hitting the wires where AMZN has patented a method for people to avoid gifts they know they don't want. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/12/26/AR201012260...

Hehehe...should've called the article "Do not close until December 25th, 2010" and heeded my own advice!
