Amazon

The calls I picked up are paying nicely now. 1345-1350 call spreads, and 1360 -1370 call spreads. Already sold some to lock in profits, will let the rest ride to see if I can maximum profit.

Today I picked up next weeks 1460-1470 call spreads for 135 each and 1450-1455 call spreads for 75 each. These are for earnings, they will go to zero if the stock price doesn't get to there by end of next week.

I had to take some profits on these. I hope we can go lower before earnings to buy some cheaper.

$1300

Hit $1400 today Only took 9 trading days for that $100 jump

Is today the day we start pricing in Amazon entering a multi trillion dollar healthcare market, or are we still pricing in sales growth of the US consumer in a growing economy?

At this point, the earning will have to be unbelievable to support this recent run. And I have learned to never doubt Amazon, but if they go down it might will be nice to pick some up a bit cheaper. It has been a great ride since I bought my first 2 shares Feb 4, 2017 at $804

About time for the year end earnings report to come out...When released my prediction is it will move $100-200 up or down in a single day pending the news.

I couldn't help it, I had to take profits on my call spreads. I have underestimated AMZN every step of the way, but this move is crazy ahead of earnings.

My prediction was a little high. Closed Wednesday 1450.89...Earning report released Thursday and it closed 1390.00 but rebounded back on Friday and closed at 1429.95...only took a $60 dip but almost rebound it all back the very next day.

Buying Ring is interesting. Amazon looks to be winning the race of taking over the entire house. Just a few years ago, everyone thought Apple would be the company to take over the home.

What a train.

Closed at $1704.86 on 6/13...up $60 more in less than 2 weeks...The Prime Day sale is sometime during the week of 7/15 - 7/22. The Prime Day Sale rivals Black Friday sales so it will be interesting to see what it does to stock price after the earnings for that quarter are released.

Closed at $1,813. WOW!

[Greenwing1]

I'm wanting to buy some really bad, just keep watching it go up.

[bassnpro1]

Closed at $1,898.52 after riding above $1900 most of the day.

I'm hoping we look back at this post in 6 months and wonder why we didn't buy more at this level

[JR19]

Look back just 1 year ago. It was $900 I would have liked to got in when it was $7 a share many years ago

[bassnpro1]

Wow, blew right past $2,000 this morning and is over $2,025 right now.

[Travel to fish]

1 year ago would have been sweet...

I have Berkshire and its tripled my investment so far, wish I bought much more. Hindsight is 20-20, my broker talked me out of fb (he is a older guy) when it opened and its up 4-500% depending which day it is.
