Interesting report, coach. Thanks.

Doesn't appear that many Naz traders covered as you did, though. Any thoughts as to why? Think you were smart to cover; if the employment number's benign, we're overdue for a rally.

BAM

Coach, good trades! Glad you still have 1/2 CUST. That one is toast. I'm holding for much lower. WSJ killed it today (I'm sure you have seen it).

Regards,

Tom

Coach, I'm new here, but I've been on the Amazon thread for a couple of years. I shorted Amzn just before it went from 40 to 1326 (split adjusted). I lost almost $100k before I BTC. I then got smart when I realized Amzn was a manipulated stock with the then small float being in very strong controlled hands.
Since then I've hedged (down bias) this over fed pig down twice. Enjoying the 200 to 100 down cycles .
I've recouped my $100k, and now am up over $750k. Right now I only have 2k short (cost 65) shares and 1k came from last weeks split.
Have you ever messed with Amzn?
Congrats on your short action on Pcln. Now!! that was another over fed pig. Still is!
Ps
Do you know that Amzn is still 70% owned by the Institutions? That's why I don't recommend it as a short, but it was one hell of a hedge.
Trust me on that.:-)
