Apple’s stock again mysteriously drops sharply on no apparent news

“Apple shares sold off sharply on Tuesday in afternoon trading on no apparent news,” Reuters reports.

“The stock fell about 2.5 percent on heavy volume to around $443 in afternoon trading while the Dow and the Nasdaq remained positive,” Reuters reports. “Apple is expected to release a line of new products, including its next generation iPhone and iPad, this Fall. However, the company is widely believed to also be unveiling a product in an entirely new category at the end of the year which many speculate is a smart TV.”
