Apple Inc. shares are currently up sharply, rising $7.92, or 3.85%, to $213.85 a day after the company sent out invitations to the media for a January 27 event in San Francisco.
Apple’s 52-week high was set on January 5, 2010 at $215.59. The stock’s 52-week low was $78.20 set on January 20, 2009.
The special event (see invitation below) is widely expected to focus on a rumored tablet device and possibly other items and/or news, such as iPhone devices, iPhone OS 4.0, and new iTunes Store features.
And it will drop like a brick on announcement day!
And be picked right back up on quarterly earnings results…good placement and timing, Apple!
So, true. The expectations will be through the roof. Apple will only deliver on a few of them. Then, the stock will drop. After a few weeks the stock rallies to a new high when the total implications of the new product are fully understood. I think this happens with every product launch.
earnings will be announced before the special event. stock will drop! buy on the rumor and sell on the news.
For those of you who wonder why Apple inc. does not pay out large dividends to share holders, this is how share holders make their returns. Buy now, sell on the 25th or 26th, then buy on the 28th or 29th when shares drop down again making a killing.
I’m not surprised that they are manipulating the investors in buying their stocks. Nothing good comes out from CRAPPLE

You are a pretty lousy troll if that is all you can come up with. At least ZuneTang was funny.
There will be a lot of extra oxygen in the room, as the audience holds its collective breath, and 1,000 racing heartbeats will be audible, when Steve utters the words, “Oh, and one more thing…”
@war….that used to happen but if i recall, it did not happen after the last two events so maybe the tide is turning.
@ i’m a PC
Zune Tang definitely had more humor! you’re pretty boring!
Woohoo! When Apple breaks $213, my shares are worth $400k. I can’t wait until $260.
@ KenC
Yeah me too KenC… Like you and all the other real important people here, I have 15,000 shares I bought at $7. Can’t wait till it hitws $260 Too.. WOOO HOOO, Go Steve!!!
Zune Tang, please come back ! =)
for the first time in my life, I bought stocks. 9 shares in AAPL at 210 a pop. the stock price has shot up to 215. I bought on the rumor of the tablet, and he will show it on stage on the 27th. its my fist stocks experience and I wanna make some hot profits. anyone with experience, when is the best time to sell all this shit? and when do I buy it again?
Apple closed at $214.38 on January 5. That must have been a intraday high.
