No problem, this is my long-term hold anyways.  So it's all good, just hate to see it go down.
Don't want to stock up now, going to diversify.  Got too much on Apple already.

the biggest user/buyer of apple products are chinese...they are going away from apple due to equal or matching quality of other electronics and pricing.  the chinese consumer is the driving force of apple stocks.  it would be wise to make more purchases, since it's down.

Hey mang.. Apple is coming out with an apple car. That might just take them straight up. Keep it in there.

Looks like you are 100% stock
Why don’t you get any bonds?
20 years left to go
I would start doing at least 10-20% bonds
Start reducing your risk

I got 30 mores to go
Plan going working till 60
I have a 10% in bond

Its nice

Looks like $1200-1600 is the ceiling



That gay dude tim cook

Apple is a very big company.  To grow PPS, they have to be building billion dollar businesses every year.  The smartphone market has peaked.  It will become a commodity...I mean it is a commodity with andriod.  Apple brand is strong but they are losing their luster.  Tim Cook is an operator and not an innovator.  So you know eventually the gravy train stops.  I sold my Apple shares.

i don't think apple will be a commodity aka (oil and gold)
i think they're more of retail and services, icloud, apps, video apple stuff(store and electricity)
