They also estimate Prime members spend an average of $1,200/year on Amazon (twice as much as others), and that Amazon made $78 per Prime sub last year after various expenses. Bloomberg previously reported Amazon had only 3M-5M Prime subs as of Oct.

Should he uphold his decision, it would be the latest step in attempts to prevent Detroit filing what would be the biggest municipal bankruptcy in U.S. history. http://seekingalpha.com/currents/post/863551?source=feed#comment-15775911 15775911 Sun, 03 Mar 2013 17:53:38 -0500 Physical Vs.

The Fed will earn about $90B in profits in 2012, estimates Stone & McCarthy, the vast majority of which will be sent to the Treasury. The profits come from the spread between the yield on bank's vast and growing hoard of securities and the IOER. Rising rates could cause losses at some point, but the Fed can just suspend payments to the Treasury when necessary. http://seekingalpha.com/currents/post/736461?source=feed#comment-13031371 13031371 Thu, 27 Dec 2012 12:36:45 -0500 Prepare To Short Gold http://seekingalpha.com/article/1050481/comments?source=feed#comment-12593191 12593191 Fri, 14 Dec 2012 07:53:44 -0500 8 Reasons To Buy Gold And Other Inflation Protection Now http://seekingalpha.com/article/1057121/comments?source=feed#comment-12510491 12510491 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 04:18:51 -0500 Omaha Hold 'Em: Going All-In On Berkshire Hathaway http://seekingalpha.com/article/1058551/comments?source=feed#comment-12510421 12510421 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 04:04:08 -0500 Let Newmont Mining Pay For Your Gold http://seekingalpha.com/article/1043341/comments?source=feed#comment-12259341 12259341 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 22:46:43 -0500 How eBay's PayPal Is The Next Big Gift For Investors http://seekingalpha.com/article/1039931/comments?source=feed#comment-12184481 12184481 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 23:44:48 -0500 Exelon: Potential Dividend Cut May Be Deeper Than You Expect http://seekingalpha.com/article/1038121/comments?source=feed#comment-12118121 12118121 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 12:11:51 -0500 Facebook Audaciously Reveals The Holy Grail And Emerges A Buy http://seekingalpha.com/article/1035121/comments?source=feed#comment-12079061 12079061 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 13:19:20 -0500 16.11% Dividend Payer Apollo Residential Mortgage Is Firing On All Cylinders http://seekingalpha.com/article/1032201/comments?source=feed#comment-12043921 12043921 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 14:06:06 -0500
