I heard that too, but I think they are supposed to be more like Apple Stores - specifically to sell their hardware like Amazon tablets, Amazon TV, Amazon phones, etc. Not books. So as the author said, that give B&N and edge. $BKS$AMZN$AAPL
Originally I expected Netflix to skyrocket when they expanded so aggressively internationally. I disagree that they will have to spend a ton on marketing - they are getting a lot of free press and many people overseas were already familar with Netflix or even using it through vpns or IP blockers.
But I ( and my friends overseas) were disappointed that Netflix's offering abroad is not the same as Netflix here in the US. It was limited to a handful of shows and movies and didn't include any of the original content like House of Cards to which you refer.
I happen to believe that there will definitely be an announcement for higher interest rates, and that this will touch off a rush into gold. @[Jeffrey Nichols](user:5267), the gold expert, discusses this in more indepth here:
