After the Senate passed a bill that would force all online retailers to collect sales tax, Bernstein thinks the impact of such a law on Amazon's (AMZN) gross profits would be "immaterial," while the bill would reduce eBay's (EBAY) EPS by less than 1% in 2014 if it becomes law. The firm keeps Outperform ratings on both stocks.

05:33 EDTAMZNAmazon Web Services achieves FedRAMP compliance for AWS GovCloud
Amazon Web Services, or AWS, an Amazon.com company, announced AWS GovCloud and all U.S. AWS Regions have received an Agency Authority to Operate, or ATO, from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, or HHS, under the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program, or FedRAMP, requirements at the Moderate impact level. FedRAMP is a U.S. government-wide program that provides a standardized approach to security assessment, authorization, and continuous monitoring for cloud products and services. With this distinction, AWS has demonstrated it can meet the extensive FedRAMP security requirements and as a result, an even wider range of government customers can leverage AWS's secure environment to store, process, and protect a diverse array of sensitive government data. Leveraging the HHS authorization, all U.S. government agencies now have the information they need to evaluate AWS for their applications and workloads, provide their own authorizations to use AWS, and transition workloads into the AWS environment.

10:42 EDTNFLXNetflix moves higher, levels to watch
The shares are moving against the broader sideways or down move in technology today, last at $244.10. It would appear that traders are intent on moving the shares back toward the $250 area. That area in the prior two-years was important support and then resistance. When the shares broke below that level in August 2011, it presaged a steep decline in share price. Retaking that level and holding it therefore might encourage more bullishness for higher price. A failure to do so could potentially derail the current trend higher.

16:47 EDTRAXOn The Fly: Closing Wrap
Stocks on Wall Street were lower, breaking the recent streak of the Dow and S&P 500 setting new closing highs. The averages moved higher during the afternoon, as the dollar topped the Y100 level for the first time in three years, though the averages fell again and failed to regain positive territory into the close. ECONOMIC EVENTS: In the U.S., jobless claims fell 4K from the prior week to 323K, which was below the consensus 335K claim forecast. Wholesale inventories rose 0.4% in March, which matched expectations. In Asia, Chinese consumer prices increased 2.4% in April, which was just above expectations, and producer prices fell 2.6%, which was more than expected. Also, the Bank of Korea unexpectedly cut its interest rate. COMPANY NEWS: Two heavily shorted stocks, Tesla (TSLA) and Green Mountain Coffee Roasters (GMCR), surged after reporting quarterly earnings after yesterday's close. Tesla added $13.61, or 24.4%, to $xx 69.40 after its top and bottom line results beat Street estimates and it raised its full-year vehicle delivery outlook to 21,000 from 20,000 vehicles. Green Mountain shares gained $16.56, or 27.84%, to $76.04 after the company's earning came in better than expected and it announced a long-term strategic partnership with Starbucks. MAJOR MOVERS: Among the notable gainers was Barnes & Noble (BKS), up $4.31, or 24.25%, to $22.08 after a report saying Microsoft (MSFT) is considering acquiring the digital assets of Nook Media. Also higher was News Corp. (NWSA), up $1.43, or 4.49%, to $33.29 after its third quarter earnings were in-line and its revenues topped consensus estimates. Among the noteworthy losers Rackspace (RAX), down $12.88, or 24.66%, to $39.36 after its second quarter revenue missed Street estimates and its stock received downgrades from at least four analyst firms. Also lower following its quarterly report was Monster Beverage (MNST), which fell $2.96, or 5.2%, to $54.01. INDICES: The Dow was down 22.50, or 0.15%, to 15,082.62; the Nasdaq was down 4.10, or 0.12%, to 3,409.17; and the S&P 500 was down 6.02, or 0.37%, to 1,626.67.
