CNBCglossing over cnbc today....consensus of opinion is not just one thing for dop in tech....extrmist....you are being over simplistic.....i was not doing market timing as you alluded to....i had held amazon for two years in my long term section of portfolio......If you read mcnamee on Cnbc.com.....he says dont rush in to buy now.....lots of emotional worry.....tariffs, mid terms, global stability, trump, slowing housing....u name it....but i realized the risk had dramatically increased.....so yes i sold....it was not based on market timing it was based on upside potential vs downside risk.....So i consider saying $250 a share a function of risk vs reward.....Its funny how people who buy and hold often pat themselves on the back for not selling and moving captial elsewhere? Dont understand it because stocks are cyclical.....
