  1. Yep, and all the while Charles Schwab released a “D” rating (down from “C”) on AAPL last week. Gawd, but I wonder what an “F” stock looks like to Chuck and his friends . . . or an “A” for that matter.

    1. I don’t think Chuck and Co. has ever had above a ‘C’ rating on AAPL, all the while my Rep has been trying to get me to sell some of my stock, saying to much of my dollar value is in one stock. Umm 😐, No Thanks! Let ‘er Ride!! It’s been that way for over 12 years.

      1. You are da’ man (or person), Cinerama! Two different brokers have tried to convince my wife and me to sell AAPL ever since our first purchase of 1400 shares in 1988. We haven’t sold even ONE and have added several hundred since then for a grand total today of 40,000 shares (split enhanced, of course). With the seriously increased dividend coming up in the next quarter, we know we won’t be sorry for our continued loyalty to Steve’s grand old company!

      2. I don’t think I’ve ever had a financial advisor who thought that having so much of my money invested in Apple was a good idea. They have invariably advised ( for more than 15 years ) that past growth is not going to continue and it’s inevitably going to crash. I have always asked them exactly what they would suggest instead. One of them strongly recommended a massive company which subsequently went into liquidation four or five years later, while a recommendation by another has performed very poorly, scarcely making gains and delivering poor dividends. When I started investing in AAPL, dividends were not paid at all, but now dividends are a significant benefit and the rise in value is still pretty good.

        By not following ‘professional’ advice I was able to end up selling a lot of Apple shares for about 11x what I paid for them, bought a lovely house for cash and have been living in it for the last four or five years while still retaining a decent number of shares and buying more since. If I had taken their advice, one investment would have turned to dust, the other would have barely kept pace with inflation and I would still need to have a mortgage.
