I’m swooning….
DELL *
No need to swear.
Psssss, come over here… You gonna give me some of that Dell?
Dell no. I ain’t handed out no Dellen Dell.
The Dell you say.
Dell-hole!
Really getting to be a normal day when AAPL hits a new high. I keep lifting my Stop sale order, I started that at the split at $90. And today upped it from $102 to $105. Never going to watch it go down like I did from $705 to $385. Guaranteed to get out at $635k. My broker thinks I am a genius BTW. I guess we all are.
You do know a stop loss can be automated.
Investing in Apple a few years back was the best decision I’ve ever made.
You guys posted an article on here that pointed out the 117.28 trade was not real and yet you keep using it in these all time high articles. I know you are auto generating these but c’mon, take two seconds to make it correct. You’re supposed to be the authority on Apple!
. . . And MY brokerage firm has been trying to get me out of AAPL for the past 15 years! Yesterday, as a matter of fact, the company sent me a “Hold” downgrade (from “Buy”) email . . . which I promptly trashed. Note: When AAPL split in June (@ 92.22, adjusted), they begged me to dump and hump right there and then–advice (again) I promptly ignored. Today at 116.31, had I heeded them, I would have thrown away a little over $960,000. The rest of their advice is usually very sound, to be sure; but when it comes to AAPL they are as blind as bats.
and don’t forget the dividends you would have foregone
The last time I spoke to my broker he said: “Buy and hold is dead”. What excellent advice to give to a client: if they hold something, sell it, and better yet get them to buy something else so the broker’s commission earnings are at least maintained if not increased. Incidentally, I was holding AAPL shares only at the time, and still hold them. The only reason to have a stock market broker is to help the broker earn a high income at your expense. On line trading avoids receiving bad advice, stock churning, high brokerage fees, and any mistakes are your own.
Also one must always take account of income taxes payable on stock market profits, and as for stop loss orders, a flash crash should help you maximize a loss.
I love these “brokers/experts” that say buy and hold is dead. I bought AAPL at several points over an 18 month span ending a couple of years back now and cumulatively it is up over 150% since that time. And that doesn’t even include the quarterly dividends I receive either. Yeah, I think I’ll stick to my own plan thank you.
I’ve listened to doom and gloom, FUD, and very bad advice from brokers and analysts for 15 years now, and ignored them all. I’m at about 4000% profit now.
“…and as for stop loss orders, a flash crash should help you maximize a loss.”
I agree. Back in around 2005 I got burned on a stop loss that locked in a substantial loss. I never used a stop loss again after that experience. I wouldn’t want to lock in a $10 per share loss on a flash crash, or an unfounded rumor these days.
MDN should fix the numbers at the top of the page. They have yesterday’s prices up there right now.
