Every year is different. Last year Russia got nasty. This year Greenspan got nasty. I don't know but part of me says to hold and buy on dips until Oct earnings and then duck out until mid Nov. Another part of me says it may be a little different this time around. IMHO, The one thing that most people agree on is that this is going to be a killer net shopping Christmas and AMZN will probably take the lion's share. That means you really want to be holding a fair number of shares by the time we have the November take off. That means that there will probably be some tendency for people to stock up on AMZN a little early. Maybe a better strategy for me would be to accumulate shares now and then buy Puts and sell covered calls to weather the OCT downdraft. Any thoughts?
