I did something similar today myself as I look for history to repeat itself from the last time AMZN dropped (it was back when it went from $750/share to $500 and I loaded up for myself and my daughters at the time - haha, it was February 2016 btw.) I sold it at $2000 then although the girls still hold it. So I trimmed "profits" from HD and EOG and bought @ $2800 today. Did the same thing recently with SHOP because no way do these stocks stay down for long. Limit orders set on Schwab as "Good Until Canceled" immediately for both as this is purely a play for gains, nothing more. Then it's back to dividend-payers with some spare cash.

RE: AMZN Just curious, as someone just sitting back watching the show, I have to ask....what makes AMZN such a compelling value here, right now, as opposed to say June when it was trading at these levels then? Why wasn't it a value THEN as opposed to now? I'm not saying it wasn't a good buy here or a good value, I'm just coming at this from a investing psychological point of view. Is the dramatic gyration the markets displaying right now influencing some decisions that some investors are making (not saying you were wrong)? I think many associate a market correction with creating automatic value and while that may be the case in most instances, I'm still not seeing compelling values in this market yet.
