Sure, and Facebook seem to be under scrutiny too. And yet, both keep growing.

And regarding your previous post about Amazon's market cap, Microsoft is even bigger. That hasn't prevented Terry Smith from investing into it though

FB & Microsoft have far better returns on capital & very much cheaper p/e

Amazon p/e 91
FB p/e 31
Microsoft p/e 34

ROCE of FB & MSFT more than 50% higher than Amazon

First the return on capital, then the market cap, and now the PE ratio. You keep changing metric

Amazon's PE ratio has always been high, so that's probably not the right number to look at.

If we look at the 5 year PEG ratio instead, which accounts for growth, it looks like Amazon is cheaper than Microsoft: 1.21 vs 2.49.
Is this the right metric to look at? I am afraid I have no idea. However people smarter than me don't like to buy stocks whose 5-year PEG ratio is above 2.

if you want to analyse amazon, forget about profit metrics and look at cash.

Yes, that seems about right.

Getting closer. To be honest, I'm not sure what I would do if we do get a blow-off top in the next month and S&P500 goes parabolic to 4000.

The initial 'obvious' answer is to sell but I've been burned too many times when selling even at the top.

If anybody had a crystal ball and could foresee when the market is going to be peak, that would be a sure way to get rich.

Meanwhile, most of us are happy making reasonable profits, even if they are not the best possible profits.

The market will always reach new peaks in the future

That

Seeing that I celebrated the DAX reaching 3000 (yes, I´m that old)

1997 or 2003, not that long ago!

If it's celebrating then I imagine 1997 not 2003 - unless he's a short seller!

What is it with GoPro for the past couple of days?

Is it worth investment or not???

Small cap company with a pretty small addressable market for the core products. If it's already up 25% I'd say you've probably missed the opportunity for a short-term trade, and I personally wouldn't touch it as a long-term investment without being confident that they have a strong pipeline of new products to grow their addressable market.

Just got merely 100 shares long ago and keep them since 2015 trying to break even at some point

Also Sonoma Pharm. former Oculus Innov. are the only black sheep in my otherwise well doing portfolio.

Out of 12 only 2 investments are lagging far behind the rest.

I suspect this may be a decent exit point.

OK. Quite the opposite strategy usually brings the results. I will keep on gambling with it, as it’s not a fortune, and let’s see what it brings in few years time.

During my time in London my then boyfriend advised me to invest in Fundsmith.
He got that right at least.

Today seems like the day to buy more positions in FB and TWTR. Let people protest and show dissatisfaction with media but at the end of the day everyone will enjoy using those two platforms.

Not everyone. One person is definitely not using those platforms anymore

Anyway, how many shares have you bought?

That’s the discussion for another thread with poll
