Amazon Stock Heading To $233 As Kindle Catches Fire

 

Trying to make the most of the Christmas shopping season, Amazon recently launched its �Best of Digital� store. [1] The store features Amazon-recommended goodies including TV shows, movies and mobile apps.

It seems that the company is leaving no stone unturned in squeezing the maximum out of the Kindle Fire mania. After a record-breaking Black Friday, Amazon could set new benchmarks for Christmas time shopping as well.

Kindle Fire Updated as Well

Christmas day clocks in as the biggest day for digital sales for Amazon, with the December 26 � December 30 period reportedly averaging three times more than Amazon�s weekly sales for the remaining year. The company also chose this strategic time to release the latest update on the Kindle Fire, [2] which had seen some complaints from users on bugs.

Amazon has sold more than 1 million tablets for each of the last three consecutive weeks [3] .

We have a revised price estimate of $233 for Amazon�s stock, which is currently around 30% above the current market price.
