“Apple shares rocket in heavy early trading”
Its good to see these kind of headlines again ” width=”19″ height=”19″ alt=”smile” style=”border:0;” />
so, where is the similar stellar performance of dull, very micro$oft, and intel? hum?
Shit, makes me think i should have bought shares in apple ages ago. Is it too late to buy now?
Actually, forgive the clueless question, but how does one ordinary Joe Blogs actually buy and sell specific shares in Apple??? 🙁
1.) set up an account with schwab, fidelity, e*trade, etc.
2.) BUY, BUY, BUY!!
3.) put in an automatic sell order if it gets to a certain percentage over what you paid for it, or an automatic buy order if it goes below what you paid for it.
4.) Enjoy the risks and benefits of being a shareholder of a Fortune 500 corporation, while listening to all of your NPR listening, hippie socialist friends whine and cry about it as they drive their VW vans converted to biodiesel and work their way from venue to venue on the Dave Matthews tour by selling vegan burritos in the parking lot. Buy some soap for your hippie friends that doesn’t smell like patchouli.
Clueless,
An easy and painless way to buy stock is through sharebuilder.com
You can open a drip account, or you can invest in real time at very reasonable fees.
There are others, but if you want something easy, sharebuilder it is.
mcp,
Are you kidding me. Apple, and it’s shareholders, would kill for half of dull, micro$oft, or intel’s quartely earnings. These companies dwarf Apple’s earnings.
Get a clue.
Dear No Name,
Apple doesn’t give a rat’s arse about other companies’ earnings. Maybe the shareholders do, but Apple is sitting pretty.
Gee, thanks guys! I will definitely give it a whirl this weekend! Long live Apple!
BTW, my new Mac Mini is just awesome. That’s whats given me the urge to buy Apple stocks… faith that Apple will continue to make such incredible innovations in size, design and usability.
Cheers!
