Now that iPhone numbers won't be revealed, AAPL can be brought to its knees whenever anybody wants. All it takes is one tidbit/article/report/rumor/whatever that production has been "slashed".
In the next earnings, if Apple's guidance is conservative or lower than the whisper numbers, the downfall will be horrible.

Awesome piece, as usual. Its like the boy who cried wolf fable, except the villagers never learn (and the boy is payed boy Wall St.).

Get ready to see 20-30 point swings.
If it is not iPhones concerns it will be some other subject like China or oil or gov. shutdown. Was lucky enough to get out of my calls on Friday. Bought some back at 50% off. Hope we hold 186.

The bottom of the WSJ article lists the contributors and their emails (posted below) in case anyone feels inclined to respond to their drivel.
Write to Yoko Kubota at yoko.kubota@wsj.com, Takashi Mochizuki at takashi.mochizuki@wsj.com and Tripp Mickle at Tripp.Mickle@wsj.com
The WSJ article is littered with unnamed "sources" and merely aggregates the last couple weeks worth of negative headlines. Bravo to DED over at AppleInsider for his rebuttal to all of this nonsense.
I picked up some more shares in the 186-187 range with what little cash I could scrape together. I guess I should thank these 'authors' for the discount.

Reinvested some dividend money in a Roth at 186.70, and put in an order to pick up another chunk of shares at just under $186 in my main account. I don't normally buy more, but feel like going for it....in a relatively small way. (Filled at $185.90)
On a side note from reading several books on Trusts, be sure to update your beneficiaries on any stock accounts, IRAs, ROTH IRAs, and the like. It's an easy step to do, and keeps them from having to be specified in a Trust, or going through probate with or without a Will. I was able to do this online, though it says to specify a trustee for kids under 18 that you have to fill out a paper form, either notarizing it or stopping by a branch.
It turns out I had nothing specified for my stock account, since I created it so long ago. And on my ROTH, it only has one of my kids as a contingent beneficiary, because the other 2 didn't exist yet.
This market will turn eventually. Hearing of so many people already off for the holiday, I imagine it's going to get thinner and thinner at Wall st, but whether that helps or hinders is yet to be seen.

Hopefully AAPL backed up the truck... If they did, I assume we'd see a solid surge at some point. Maybe they bought in small doses.

Hopefully AAPL backed up the truck... C'mon gang, they still got approx. $80 Billion to shovel into the big AAPL money machine. We're in for a several of these until it's all in. We need to get used to it. Pay attention to the AH action that's where it's all goin' down in my opinion, unless anybody knows anything different, please share.

See what kind of support it gets at 180, then look for the gap at 169 if that fails.
