I'm not a pessimist – I'm a realist

“I'm sure, that Amazon will grow significantly next month”, Tom tells his buddy Fred during a coffee break. “Why do you think that??”, Fred asks skeptically. Tom answers: “classes start next month, and students and teachers will need to buy books; this should increase sales, which means, and share price. ” Fred objects: “Maybe, but it may not be so easy. This is just one of many possible factors., and the price may depend on many other reasons, which you probably missed”. Disappointed with poor support from a friend, Tom screams, “You are such a pessimist”.
