200 is the new 300.
and 300 is the new Gladiator
WACKITY – SMACKITY – DOOO
Why does this $200 price not show up on the Intraday chart at Nasdaq? It doesn’t even show anything above $193 or so.
The money was worth more a year ago, and more a year before that. R U comparing Apples to Oranges again?
yes, where is it on the intraday? not showing up…
That $200 price was a consequence of a single, large transaction where 150,000 shared (for $30 million) changed hands in one single block. Since today’s volume is rather low, the buyer couldn’t find a single seller to deliver the whole lot, so he/she upped the bid to encourage someone to unload. This transaction was followed by a number of smaller lower bids, indicating that the person who ended up on the receiving end of those $30m went around and bought his/her 150,000 shares back in smaller lots, for less money.
Nonetheless, an all-time intra-day high was nailed on at $200, and that’s a psychological barrier that may motivate many others to think more positively about buying below $200.
so why doesnt the high water mark show up on the chart?
I briefly touched $200.00 once.
Once.
whooohoo…on the road to $600
It does show up, have a look here………….

It does not show up on the chart. The chart should show a spike to $200. It doesn’t. Whatever happened was very strange. Why would someone pay a 5% premium? Why not break the purchase into smaller chunks at the lower/real price? The Apple stock attracts a lot of strange game players who seem to like manipulating the stock more than investing in the company.
can someone please tell me when this is gonna split so That I can make even more money please!!!!
thank You!

My wife let me spend $200 once.
So, Buster, what did you buy her?….
ApplePi,
Splits do absolutly nothing for a stock. Actually, there has been research to prove that it might hurt a stock to split. Warren Buffett never splits his stock and it’s doing quite well. If you own AAPL, you shouldn’t really be hoping for a split. The higher the price, the less volitile the stock will be.

Thanks for explaining that, I never thought of it that way before.
never hit 200 matardo ….. rush is right always
The $200 price doesn’t show up on any other intraday trading ranges that I’ve checked (e.g. quote.com).
Maybe it was an off-exchange transaction that was reported for quotation somehow? I don’t know if Nasdaq does that but other exchanges have these “X” trades (e.g. the NY Mercantile Exchange has it).
And Beowulf is the new 300. “Madness? I AM BEOWULF!!!”
@TowerTone
Apple stock?.. what more can a woman want?
Do you really believe Apple is gonna be $300 and more? A lot more needs to get done first…
It’s probably just a mistake. Happens all the time.
