If you boght 100 shares in 2000, how much would they be worth now?
MW=window, the window of opportunity is getting smaller
There are cell phones and now, iphones, the world of comunications will never be the same. Welcome to the new era, a new era focus on end users. Thanks Apple Inc.
With the money I’m making, the iPhone gets cheaper by the second. =)
The price got all the way down to $7.03 in 200, so 100 shares would have cost you 703 dollars plus commission (say 10 bucks) for total cast basis of $713.00.
As of this moment, AAPL is at $94.96, so 100 times that is $9,496.00. If you sold at that price, subtracting that 10 bucks again, you would have made a profit of $8773.00.
AAPL is wonderful. I buy their stock and it allows me to buy their products to make more money to buy their stock again. It’s a wonderfully vicious cycle. And the AAPL in the retirement account has been wonderful, too.
sry, “in 2000”, not 200. Even I didn’t get in that early.

that is called a virtuous cycle/circle
JadisOne,
That’s exactly what I do… make a grand or so on the stock, craigslist my old stuff, and roll some of that into the latest apple product. Sweet deal!

ChrissyOne –
You forgot the stock split in 2005. I bought (I think in 2003) 100 shares at $17 plus $69 commission – let’s say $1800 for round numbers. I now have 200 shares worth almost $95 – or $19000.
Oh why didn’t I get 1000 shares instead of 100? Sigh. MDN Magic Word “back” if I only knew then I would have gotten 5000 shares!
I wonder what rock “Stock Boy” and “Sell Sell Sell” are hiding under right now. Gawd, but they (he? she?) must be flogging themselves now, having recommended that we short AAPL last summer as it headed for the low 40’s. (HA!)
Just goes to show you: PC Apologist(s) and their ilk know NOTHING about innovation, growth, and designing products for real people, not fat-mouthed, so-called power-users.
MSFANBOYS: Watch your MonkeySoft stock languish in the high 20’s, low 30’s for the remainder of this decade, at least. You deserve it.
Speaking of Micro$oft, where’s my “Phune”? Surely Billy and Ballmy must have some kind of knock-off waiting in the wings for Zune Tang and his ilk to salivate over!
But wait . . . Didn’t his Steveness say that Apple had PATENTED most of the iPhone as it was being developed? Curses! What will the BallmerBoys do NOW, since they can’t just repackage, rebrand, and steal Apple’s ideas?
Woe is them, woe is them.
@ Geo B – Sorry, let me clarify, the stock got down to a ‘split adjusted’ price of $7.03.
Carry on.

MW: ‘his’ (tory will mark this day)
Come on, I haven’t even had my coffee yet.
Wow, we’re flirting with $96.

Mike D. – Dude, you’re getting pwned®.
AAPL is flirting with triple digits. Shameless tease!
Flirting with more than 2 digits at a time can get you chlamydia.

MW: ‘based’ (on rumor and hearsay)
This morning:
“Prudential ups target to $90 from $87” (MarketWatch)
So bold.
” . . . can get you chlamydia.”
New England or Manhattan style?
Current (live) price: $96.13
All I can say is WOW!
The earnings btw will also blow out expectations.
So, to correct my self…
100 shares in 2000 = $1,406.00
plus commission = $1,416.00
200 shares today = $19,246.00 (the price is now $96.23)
minus commission = $19,236.00
For a profit of $17,820.

MW: ‘increase’ (seriously)
I think we might even bump our head on 100 today.
This is not possible. One incredibly brilliant analyst on these threads said otherwise:
“Don’t pass the koolaid

AAPL a strong short right now. Going to 77 after Mac World. You hear (sic) it here first.”
“I think we might even bump our head on 100 today.”
For better privacy though, you might want to wait ’til it gets dark. (j/k)
