Steady as she goes….
Best news since April 28, 2014.
Where’s Dell on the list? Oh that’s right, they gave the money back to the shareholders.
After the 7-for-1 split, when Apple goes over $100, that an ALL TIME high…
Can’t wait!
Actually, it’s been much longer than 52 weeks since the stock was this high. Early Oct 2012 shortly after the unrealistic bubble burst (more than 18 months ago), and mid April 2012 shortly after that bubble started (over two years ago now). At the beginning of 2012, it was at about $400 and had been steadily climbing for more than 3 years. Had the Wall St gamblers not created the bubble, the growth rate prior to it, had it sustained (like it has for a year now), we would have been about right where it is today. And it’s 50% higher than it was at the start of that insane bubble.
Quit blaming Wall Street. No one forced people to buy. No one forced people to sell. It’s the stock market. Stocks go up. Stocks go down. Quit blaming others. Have accountability for what you do, or don’t do in life. My guess is that you bought AAPL on it’s way to $1000 per share. And didn’t sell when it started dropping like a rock. Then bitched for last 19 months because you lost money. Quit blaming everyone else.
U don’t know shit about stockmarkets: “people”!? Bah! (and I haven’t lost money on stocks, yet!)
You don’t understand what “52-week high” means. It means it closed at the highest price seen during the previous 52 weeks, NOT that it was previously at the current price within the last 52 weeks.
A stock could have been $100 a share, then fallen to below $50 and stayed there for the next five years. Then, some positive news makes it blip up to $60 in one day. That $60 close is a 52-week high. It does not matter that the last time it hit $60 was five years ago.
