Following Amazon's announcement yesterday that its fourth-quarter revenues were slightly below expectations at $960 million, three influential brokerages revised their ratings on the stock. Robertson Stephens changed from 'long-term attractive' to 'market performer', Goldman Sachs from 'trading buy' to 'market outperform', and Salomon Smith Barney from 'buy' to 'outperform'. Confused by the terminology? You're not alone. As I described in Tomments #2, analyst rating terminology is intentionally vague and non-standardized, because this enables them to avoid accountability. My advice: ignore the analysts, go straight to the source (http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/010108/wa_amazon_.html) and decide for yourself whether to be impressed by the results. The analysts have their opinions, and I have mine, but yours is what matters.

Amazon.com dropped 11% today in sympathy with EToys.com which announced last week it would badly miss estimates for the quarter (EToys lost 73% today). The big question is, will Amazon's partnership with ToysRUs.com stave off the Grinch? (source: CNNfn) http://cnnfn.cnn.com/2000/12/18/companies/toys/

Cash-strapped Buy.com surged past Amazon.com to secure the title of top online electronics seller in the latest Forrester Research rankings, which gauge e-tailer performance across a host of different categories. Forrester said the Amazon's runner-up placement was due to its "dismal" customer service. (source: E-Commerce Times) http://www.ecommercetimes.com/perl/story/5458.html

In its quest to be a universal marketplace, Amazon.com is running afoul of two of its core constituencies--the people who write as well as publish the books it sells. The two groups, which previously had tended to be devout Amazon fans, are upset that the online retailer is making it so easy for customers to buy and sell cheap secondhand copies of new books.

Amazon.com is facing a busy holiday season, one that may be complicated by inquiries from the Securities and Exchange Commission about the company’s accounting practices. Officials at the Internet retailer said the regulatory agency had questions about how it accounted for shares received from partner companies in exchange for services, such as featuring another company’s Web site on Amazon’s home page.

Amazon.com has come under fire from every which way, as investors grow weary of the company's absence of profit. In response, the online retailer has surreptitiously been raising book prices. This may seem like a good opportunity for independent booksellers to regain market share – but this columnist says Amazon's strategy is bound to succeed.
