Bam! 🙂
Go get $284 before Friday Jan. 3, 2020! AAPL (still) being able to double its one-year low, as the world’s most valuable company, would be fun to see… 😎
I’m getting a bit uncomfortable with Apple’s daily increase of share price. I still think Mr. Market wants to screw Apple shareholders for reasons unknown. I hope I’m wrong and like the X-Files, I want to believe Apple won’t be highly prone to volatility. I don’t need the daily increase and I would like to see Apple hold this share price and not go into collapse mode as it did last year. With the tariffs just around the corner, I’m feeling a bit nervous as I’m concerned the big investors will start to bail when those tariffs take place.
I see Microsoft is easily holding pace with Apple and I find that somewhat puzzling except for the cloud business aspect. Cloud companies are getting free passes, so it probably isn’t that unusual for Microsoft to keep rising without anyone saying the company is overvalued.
If it makes you nervous, then this is the ideal time to cash out.
Apple’s stock is highly manipulated, has been for years.
Cloud computing getting a pass? Perhaps you forgot about the dot com bubble.
