Guided tours are all greyed out for me. There's a link to them on Apple's front page, and none of them work? Pretty inexcusable, if you ask me. Mine are fine ... I don't understand why yours are greyed out? Oops! I take that back ... 3 are greyed out.

I think AAPL has a good chance to start a climb toward earnings, likely next week. All the news is solid. Earnings. Anecdotal Watch Sales. BuyBack. Dividends. New Apple TV at WWDC. Car Talk. The failure of Samsung to challenge the iPhone 6. The only wild card is the stock market showing signs of froth -- IN OTHER STOCKS!
All the Watch FUD is collapsing under the weight of its own bullshit.. PED has a nice writeup today on the skewed reporting, concluding that one negative review overpowers several positive ones. Neil CybArt affirmed the predominant favorable media reviews. Media has always had problems with balanced reporting, but things are made worse by the presence of media trolls like Business Insider. Apple's celebrity status confers no advantage to AAPL.

Ming-chi kuo says watch preorders at 2.3 million. wp.me/pWQsq-1Qh"We estimate production of Apple Watch around 2.3mn units in March-May. Mass production of Apple Watch began in March and will likely reach 2.3mn by end of May. Considering that most consumers who preordered will not get the device until June, we estimate global preorders of over 2.3mn units, with Apple Watch Sport, Apple Watch and Apple Watch Edition representing a respective order allocation of 85%, 15% and less than 1%." Who knows?

I think he's full of it. Only 15% stainless? That's not the impression I'm getting at all, talking casually to Apple sales staff and anecdotal data points elsewhere. Ming-chi needs a heavy dose of accountability for his past myopia.

Quick question. Does anyone know how to calculate IRR (using XIRR() function) in Excel for a short trade. In this case, I sold put options that will [probably] expire worthless soon. XIRR() works perfectly for all my other trades, it just doesn't work for trades in which the "sale" came before the "buy". I've suffered with this problem for many years and have yet to find a good solution. Wild ass guess, enter a negative number for the sale. I usually enter negative numbers for investment (i.e. "money in") and positive numbers for return (i.e. "money out"). In the case of an expired put, "money in" is the interest amount on the investment from day 1, and "money out" is the value at the end when the trade is completed.
