    COULD look@ it that way, i'm not long or short that one.
    I dont use subjective measures like bubble, over sold or overbought, fine if you do
    YTD ,AMZN = up 59.98%/QLD= up 85.47% with about 4% AMZN.
    ALL the big tech co tend to have HI /PE;
    I'm not buyin' the whole co, so i also dont care about a high book value.
    Lo pe tends to go lower, \DIA\DOW= underperformer.
    I seldom do single stocks; i do like hi PE stocks in a good ETF.....

    So is a 5 YO - don't believe me - print out a chart..., show it to any 5 YO - ask them which way price is moving


    Traders know how to leverage said setups

    You more like an analyst

  3. Ehh, maybe. How long are you holding it for? When I gather everything on this thread, I get:
    1. PE > 100
    2. market cap > 100b
    3. up at least 40% YTD
    4. Had a day worse than 50% of its peers in technology.
    When I backtest this for a weekly holding period, I see that when it strikes it looks good.

    If you loosen the market cap restriction to 20b, you get more volatility, but much better results:

    When I go back to 2000, I get nice performance when it finds anything:

    So, yeah, I guess that is a good set up. But don't hold it too long (monthly rebalance chart below):
