Yeah, only a few days ago, I noted that Apple was $58B behind Exxon and $58B ahead of Microsoft, and now look.
Anyhow, I’m only $7 away from $600k in my retirement plan.
I mean $600k of Apple shares.

To whom it may concern
Never say Apple is only an oil spill away from overtaking Exxon Mobile. It’s entirely not necessary. With the fantastic growth of iPhone, iPad, Mac and iPod, Apple should pass Exxon next year.

today’s XOM price- APPL needs to be $363.35 a share to overtake it. Not too unrealistic at all given apple’s for sure future growth. tuesday is going to be awesome one way or another.
funny, it’s listed that there are 11.75M shares of APPL shorted.
OUCH! must hurt to be carrying that hehe.

AAPL has not made much gain XON as it’s stock value per share has also risen and the $58B difference is about the Sam’s as it was 4-5 weeks ago.

Quite a jump today, even though a $12 increase today is the same (percentage) as a $4 increase when AAPL was trading at around $100 not so long ago. I think it is safe to be long AAPL right now, because I think Apple will surprise even the more optimistic analysts with results for the previous quarter, plus the other nice surprises the “Back to the Mac” event will likely bring next week. The general market is also in a wait-and-see mode for the mid-term election in November, and Republican gains will be seen as a positive.
But the over-exuberance here is pretty thick. The last time I read comments like this was when AAPL was flirting with $200 (the first time), before it dipped below $80. So the trip from $200 to $300 went through $80. That was only about TWO years ago; how quickly some people forget…
Deciding when to “realize” some of your paper profit is just as important as deciding when to buy some more shares.

Be VERY careful when everybody else is buying. Too many examples of boom, then suddenly bust.
Be VERY careful.
PS. I own 700 plus shares.

Surreal is like when you wake up from a dream that felt so real but then couldn’t really tell if you were still dreaming or not. Like the moment he heard the news felt like a dream.
