Kohl's and The Rest of The Retailers are in Deep Doo Doo / Companies / Sector Analysis
By: James_Quinn
I never believe government manufactured numbers. They will always be adjusted, massaged, and manipulated to achieve a happy ending for the propagandists attempting to control and fleece the sheep. Yesterday, the government produced retail sales numbers for August that were weak and the corporate MSM propaganda machine immediately threw up bold headlines declaring how strong these numbers were. Positive stories were published on the interwebs and Wall Street hack economists were rolled out on CNBC, where the bubble headed bimbos and prostitutes for the status quo like Jim Cramer and Steve Liesman declared the recovery gaining strength. Woo Hoo.

Amazon Stock Biting Off More Than It Can Chew? / Companies / Internet
By: Investment_U
Zachary Scheidt writes: Amazon.com (Nasdaq: AMZN) is one of the best growth stocks of our generation. Over the last 10 years alone, revenues have grown from $6.3 billion to more than $80 billion per year. Yet despite all the revenue, profits have been absent.
Jeff Bezos, the company’s founder and CEO, built his empire by growing revenues with the promise of profits. His strategy has been to aggressively cut prices (at the expense of profits) to gain market share. Thus far, the strategy has made the company into a retail powerhouse. Bezos hopes to repeat this success with the company’s new business lines.
