Amazon's delta

Article Abstract:

Amazon has had a major impact on web retailing, and has diversified into new areas such as video games and software. The company aims to dominate all major web retailing categories, but there is concern that it could seek to expand too rapidly. The company's operating losses are increasing, and investors may decide that they have had enough. Five Wall Street Internet analysts have downgraded their ratings for Amazon's stocks. Critics argue that the web is more suited to category killers than to general stores.
