AAPL - Sell the News (I Guess)

5 September 2007

Man, I got busy today and forgot that Apple’s iPod announcement was today or I would have sold the news too and bought it back five or six points lower. Oh well, there’s still some upside left in it and the new iPod’s are sure to go straight to the bottom line. They (iPod’s) look […]

And now we are left wondering is this the start […]

I’d say that someone got fired over […]

A Downer Sort of Day

17 January 2007

Well on my screen, pretty much everything closed down today, all except my mutual fund (PVADX) which somehow managed to close up a nickle at 31.35.
Apple reported excellent earnings numbers after the close and was briefly flying high at $99.00 until word got out that they guided Q2 down a bit. Last I looked they were at […]
