Short-lived euphoria It seems when we have a string of too many $1+ increases, such that I expect to look at my iPhone 10 minutes into trading and have the stock up $2+, that things are towards the end of that short trend. Likewise, that is also when the RSI has been above 75 or 80 for a bit. Not quite the "thinking about new car syndrome" that I've had near the tippy top of the tend a few times in the past decades, but it is a spidery sense type thing none the less. Someone had a quote about this, somewhere. There it is, in Lucky's signature. "While AAPL could keep climbing from here, I'd more expect a modest pullback, sometime. --4aapl" But start putting annualized rates on expectations, and the bigger numbers are there. 10% seems very safe, 15% more probable, and 20% fairly possible. 15% gives $270 in 18 months, around Jan 2020. At some point there's going to be a market pullback (just as this bull market will end at some point), and real estate could pull back too though a flattening seems more likely to be the worst it would get in the mid-term given the low inventory and positive economy. That said, the bull market can't go on forever, and when it changes it will pull AAPL too. But to me it seems that is in the 1-5 year forecast. RSI is back to 75, and a week long pullback to support at $210 would take it down to 60-65 I would think. That said, this RSI stretch above 70 is nothing compared to Feb 2017.

I can see is touching the 20 MDA by Middle of next week As you can see Siri doesn’t work so well for dictation Different people have different success using Siri for dictation. This is on and I old iPhone 5s, and I’ve used it in a variety of places including a ski lift where it’s windy and I have a face mask on. Right now this is just at home with the dryer in the background. It should work pretty well. There are sometimes where things are complicated like if speaking into the phone about two different things while thinking of others, too. Personally I think it does a pretty good job. Much better than the first scan software did back 30 years ago. I can use this quite a bit, but sometimes have a few things to touch up if they want it to be perfect. Parentheses I believe I said hi there, not Day and parentheses. Wow, that really messed up, especially after auto correcting day today. They! So all is not perfect, but it sure gets a lot correct. Sent from my iPhone (Typing this part in, after emailing the dictation above to myself. I had never tried saying parentheses to it before, but had also never said "new paragraph". I meant "into" to be "in to", to try out the 3 versions (not two) of to in short order, too. It did great on that! But then it messed up near the end, and also a fumble there at the beginning with "and I" instead of "an". At the same time, I try to think more carefully before I speak to it so I fumble less, since it tries to interpret words from anything you say. At the same time, just like editing while typing, there are times where it's the user who messes up. I often hit that with tenses, mainly if I edit a sentence mid-stream)

Apple is smartly removing another useless Apple Watch featureI would like to hear opinions from actual Watch owners, as I have not worn any watch since shortly after I got the first iPhone. How many pundits predicted a couple of years ago that wearables would be the next rising category of Apple products? I think we were all braced for this pullback (it has been a fun little ride, though ), and the pre-new-iPhones build up should begin fairly soon. If we can hang out here in the low 200-and-teens until then...

In regards the article posted over the weekend, Trump backs CEOs, proposes easing corporate reporting rules, I would LOVE if Apple moved to reporting twice (or once) a year. I simply don't see how any AAPL stockholder enjoys the terrors of the cat-and-mouse game of beat the analysts' made-up dart board numbers every 90 days. While "experts" I've never heard of who have never run a hot dog stand, let alone a Dow 30 company, are quoted in the article poo-pooing the change, I'm thinking Tim is for the change so it's good. Is Apple really a company that can be judged on a 90-day basis?
Anyway, occasional pullbacks are good for BTFD, which I just did.

If SIRI can do that well, I may just give it a try.

If SIRI can do that well, I may just give it a try. Give it a try. I don't use it most of the time here, since my Mac's OS is old so doesn't have it. But I use it all the time on the iPhone, and occasionally on our iPad. My wife doesn't like talking to her phone (for one, she sometimes doesn't want everyone hearing her texts). But the kids enjoy it. And I'm old enough that I don't have texting fingers, so it speeds things up immensely. And like I mentioned before, it's awesome on the ski lift, being able to keep the gloves on. I've heard many other people say a quick blurb to their phone on the lift too, so it seems to be a decently used thing. There is supposed to be some learning going on by the iPhone, to get better. But I haven't used it too much, and still it does ok. OTOH, there are some things that it continues to get wrong, like putting a boy's name instead of my daughter's name, even though they sound different and I consistently change it. It gets most things right, maybe 98-99.5%, whereas offhand maybe anything above 95% would be useful. I'd expect it to only be even better, with a newer iPhone than mine, with more power, a better mic, and less lint or whatnot covering the mic. (This was typed, so any errors are my own and not Siri's

I've been yawning all day. Maybe I've adrenal fatigue after all of the dopamine hits when seeing all of the green in Artman's post. I'll take some vitamins and be ready for more.
