They were over $3,550 at the beginning of the month and dropped below $3,000 yesterday. Heading into Q4 with COVID still out there and online shopping likely at an all time high this Holliday season shouldn’t they be expected to report huge earnings? Why are they down 15% from the beginning of the month anyway?

If you see a permanent pivot in consumer buying behavior due to COVID, you have a good reason to be optimistic about AMZNs future.

I bought a lot of shares last month when Amazon dropped below $3000. I planned to sell when it got to $3500 and it seems that it’ll reach that with Prime day tomorrow and Wednesday.

It’s up over 5% today but now I’m wondering if I should hold beyond prime day. How does prime day typically affect the stock? I’m wondering if it’ll dip again now that it’s run up so much although I imagine prime day usually would have a positive impact on the share price.

Yes has been a correct answer anytime over the last decade.

Yes and you should never sell it until you absolutely need to. The growth will not stop anytime soon
