Hi Saleem,

I'm not particularly enthusiastic about AMZN tonight given every single analyst has raised their price target in the last month ("sell the news" potential), but I think it sets up well to rally into year end no matter what happens today.

As for the Russell 2000 though, we may be stuck in a slog for a while still. Today's action is horrific and there won't be uncertainty resolution for weeks. I won't try and "game the trade" but instead will stick with my selected companies unless their specific thesis changes.
