Just buy Amazon shares dude. As soon as you start trading Futures (Options) you have entered “total gambling”

There’s investing, then there’s high risk investing (basically gambling), and then there are Options (total gambling). You’re trying to time the market which is usually not going to work out, unless you have some good information.

Buying shares there is no time limit. If you believe they’ll go up in the mid-long term, just buy shares. Going too far out, you’ll pay too much of a premium on the Options and increase your chances of losing it all. Just buy AMZN shares.

Yeah AWS isn’t going anywhere. Just because it’s not growing as rapidly doesn’t concern me at all. Of course they’re not going to grow rapidly… it started with them being the new player to cloud compute, then they basically undercut the entire market, quickly became the most popular (or one of?) cloud service provider, and now they’re leveling off. Thing with investors is they see things like this and get scared there’s going to be a nosedive, because traditionally, that would be a more likely scenario given that limited information. However, AWS is still going strong. There are just less and less people who are not using AWS every day, so the pool of people who can migrate to their services shrinks.

Disagree. They were overvalued at 180, sure…probably.

But at $100 a share?

Before the split that would be $2,000 a share, which is literally the price from 2019 before the Fed really started fucking things up. I think back then it was a fair value, and taking into account the MASSIVE amount of inflation we’ve seen lately, in tandem with Amazon’s growth, $2,000 a share seems too low.

Yes, in case you weren’t aware; some stocks do stay flat over time (losing money, as you said), and others actually go down over time (also losing money). So you can’t just “zoom out” in every scenario….

If you’ve crossed the event horizon, presuming you’re not already dead from the immense pressure, wouldn’t you only be able to see photos from behind you? I.e. everything from every angle your body is not blocking to the event horizon would just be pitch black.
