YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

He made one of the boldest calls ever by a stock analyst on Wall Street, a bet that an unprofitable online bookseller named Amazon.com could almost double its stock price within a year. It was laughable. Amazon, which at the time was refusing to provide investors with sales guidance, was pulling in just around $154 million in quarterly revenue and had never even posted a profit.
