BEZOS JEFFREY P: 94,158,586 shares held.

Price today: 118.87, down 6.54 from Friday.

Bezos' personal loss: approx $616 million.

Bezos lost $80 million-ish in the initial fallout from the LGBT #amazonfail in April. The stock recovered and rallied after that.

Still. Perhaps this time shareholders will realize what an erratic, disproportionate, extortionate nutball is running the company.

To this reader, Scalzi has the best post-mortem.

Business Week is reporting, as of an hour ago, the Macmillan titles aren't back yet. Yet another blown announced rollout from AMZN.

As sometimes happens, Dave Winer warned us about this in 2000. No more pesos for Señor Bezos!

Here's the graph showing AMZN underperforming all indices today -- the S&P, the Dow 30, and the NASDAQ -- on no other corporate news.

This is only the first day.

Here we see that Jeffrey P Bezos holds 97,167,078 shares of AMZN. AMZN was down 0.83 today.

So Mr. Bezos lost roughly $80.6 million dollars today.

I suspect he's not the only shareholder to have comparable losses. IANAL, but sounds actionable to me as the result of somebody's solitary fuck-up.
