Amazon then proclaimed that it was going to be a lot closer to $200 billion ("no worries, you only missed by the GDP of Croatia"), and the industry spent the next two business weeks just beating the absolute stuffing out of their stock for it.

That's more than the entire market cap of most companies that analysts are supposedly experts at evaluating.
