(Update 7/28/2010) So RIMM has popped on the news of iPhone killer. I'm not impressed with the move, at least not yet. The stock is yet to take out yesterday's high, which is $55.65. AMZN continues to languish, going nowhere.
-------------------------------
so reports Barron's Tech Trader Daily by Eric Savitz on July 27, 2010. Maybe that's why the stock had a miraculous reversal the day after the earning announcement:
(Quote)
Amazon.com (AMZN) has temporarily run out of Kindles.
Here’s what it says if you attempt to buy the e-Book reader on the company’s Web site:
“Temporarily out of stock. Order now and we’ll deliver when available. We’ll e-mail you with an estimated delivery date as soon as we have more information. Your account will only be charged when we ship the item.”
And what do you see when you go to the Amazon home page? Why, a promo for the extra-big Kindle DX!
As SlashGear notes, the sudden Kindle shortage could mean there has been a surge in demand - or it could mean a next-gen Kindle is on the way.
(Unquote)
That sudden reversal after the earning report has kept my AMZN puts worthless, but I still don't think much of the AMZN chart. Ever since the July top of $124.88 it's on the decline, underperforming the index (Nasdaq). You could say it is resilient, refusing to sell off. But it looks to me like it wants to sell off at any time now. (Of course I'm biased, I have AMZN puts.)
This stock and another Nasdaq beta Research in Motion (RIMM) look to me to be ready to dump. But then the Kindle rumor may be true, and RIMM just announced the iPhone "killer". They may turn on the dime.
