  Is Amazon Stock A Better Buy Than Apple Through 2025?
  Amazon shares may seem much pricier than Apple today, but the valuation gap should narrow over time. With both stocks valued at 21 times 2025 earnings, which is a better buy today?At first glance, Apple -Get Report and Amazon -Get Report stocks appeal to two distinct group of investors. The former, trading at 26 times current earnings, is a blend of value and growth, what some might call a GARP play. The latter, trading at 64 times EPS, is the highest growth of FAAMG names.First, I find it hig

The more a stock becomes disjointed with the fundamental realities, the greater the struggle. Investors internally debate, rationalize and self-negotiate with the following unknown questions:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Is a double, triple or a ten bagger enough?</li>\n <li>Should I take short term profits on all or some?</li>\n <li>Momentum seems strong, should I buy more at these levels in hopes to ride it higher?</li>\n <li>Should I just keep it on the table for the long term?</li>\n <li>Who will blink first?</li>\n</ul>\n<p>These psychological effects normally follow a scripted playbook that technical analysts can normally rely on. However, meme stocks are not normal by any stretch as witnessed by the extreme emotional back and forth battle between sellers and buyers.

The delicate balancing act on the head of the pin with respect to over diluting could most certainly trigger a selloff of epic proportions.
