  1. Was slightly down for most of dat until final hours and then in the last 15 minutes or so buyers came in …..

    Apple not only made a new closing high – Apple closed almost on the high of the day …..

    Super strong stock heading to $150 sooner than later ….. For sure when the reports come in about Watch sales …. We may even top $170 a share before end of April!

    1. Your hope is charming in a child-like way. If it is infectious, if enough people share your hope, the price will rise but like in many childish dreams, reality will enter and you will wake to find out that it was just a dream. The market is way more affected by past losses and bad experiences to easily jump on any bandwagon and particularly AAPL. I hold about 3500 shares of AAPL and would love to see it rise but I am a realist.

    2. Apple programming bug of the day: When restarting the desktop photo disappears. It is still shown in the preference, but you must cycle the format to get it to show up on the desktop again.

    1. That number$142.86, is significant to me because it will put my AAPL holdings over half a million dollars (on an investment of $142,000). Is there other significance to it?

  2. I am loving this run. Just 10 days ago it was huge news that Apple’s market cap was $700B. In just 7 trading days the market cap is already half way to $800B.

    So glad I bought as much AAPL as I could back in 2010! Best investment ever!

  3. In 2013, I thought Wall Street was going to bury Tim Cook under a mound of incompetence after Apple started being overtaken by Samsung in the smartphone market share race. Even I had my doubts as to whether Apple could rebound very quickly because of the pincer movement of Samsung of products at every price point and an exorbitant marketing deluge.

    However, quickly Samsung shot its load and now it’s history. The gains I’m seeing from my starting purchase of Apple stock in 2004 is certainly more than I’d have ever imagined. I don’t have much in the way of financial skills. I just know what I believe in and I think I got very lucky.

    I’m not going to start praying Apple reaches a trillion dollar market cap or anything of the sort. However, I do hope Apple is able to at least keep the gains it has made so far before the market turns on it again. Every little slip-up Apple makes will be under a microscope of scrutiny and the vultures will go after any sign of weakness. It’s just that Apple’s wealth is so vast it probably can’t fall all that fast to justify mass abandonment. Well, with Wall Street, you never can tell.

  4. It’s amazing that talk of non-existent products will drive Apple stock up but spectacular results will produce less of a reaction.

    Great to see aapl up where it should be. At some point the stock will drop down and profit takers kick in. I’m toying with the idea of selling some stock to buy back in when it gets lower. The time may not be right now with the Apple Car hype and the Watch nearing release.
