we're talking numbers on amazon.the technical side is jonathan with miller, and on the fundamentals is ennis with risk reversal. ennis, your view on the fundamentals of amazon. will a new york grocery business be a game changer or move the needle here? >> no, it certainly won't move the needle in the short run or really the long run. i guess it's another example of amazon delivering for customers, and that's the key. it's a great company for customers. but it's not a good stock. in fact, it's a very dangerous stock. in my opinion, given the fact that it hasn't generated profits for many, many years, but even if you look at the projections, go out to 2017, to 2018, it would generate less than $10 billion in profit if analysts' projections are correct, which i think are optimistic. so you're paying for a company that's never generated a substantial profit, and even going forward into the future, is not expected to do so. >> jonathan, how do the charts look? >> i think ennis will be right in the short term. if we look a
