Hello, Bob & William. I have pending order to buy for the box at $70 since last Sat. You guys were having all the fun and making all the money on Amzn!

>>Does that mean you are buying to hold for the long-term? Absolutely, unless the company disappoints or the market breaks again. I may do some short-term trades attempting to increase returns like I have before. >>Or, are you going to liquidate on a whim just like the rest of your recent buy and sell decisions? Whim? >>You do the hundreds of SI members who have you peoplemarked a great disservice by suggesting this is anything but a short-term trade Great disservice? How so?

BTW, that's quite amusing, suggesting that you are buying in the $80s because fundamentals support that valuation. Does that mean you are buying to hold for the long-term? The only people I know who are in it for the long term are Jeff Bezos and the Motley Fool.....and they will regret not dumping this stock in the $100 range. The Motley fool actually defended their decision not to dump NZMA at $140. Unbelievable!! --Olu E.

>> You do the hundreds of SI members who have you peoplemarked a great disservice by suggesting this is anything but a short-term trade. Not that they pay you for advice, but... << I don't think William is doing anyone a disservice. He is simply talking his position. What's wrong with that? If people on this thread want to blindly follow him so be it, he isn't forcing anyone to do anything. If anyone is doing a disservice, it is the people who ask him what he is doing all day, and then run out and follow him without thinking. They are doing a disservice to themselves. So far it would have been a smart move to just mirror what William has done. Unless he sells the rally that will change...
