Another crap week for AAPL and the markets. Figured I would extend the weekend thread streak as no one else seemed to have bothered.
Cheers to the longs :/

Agreed with lack of enthusiasm. I posted the thread, then shoveled. :/ I'm on Long Island. Got about a foot. Was expecting 3-6" per weathermen. Should call them weather analysts

I hope everyone puts things into context. The whole market is being pounded. All the FANG stocks are still taking beatings. In the scheme of things AAPL isn't doing so badly...it's just the bigger market issue.

Super Bowl 50 Sunday ... "SuperMan vs. Old Mann" is the title of the New York Post. They have the best title writers! I hope the game is competitive and not one sided. It helps to get my mind off AAPL now and then. I'm as frustrated at the lack of recognition as all of you - but it can drive you nuts at times. The good news is that the market gods are hitting the high multiple stocks - hey maybe realigning the market. All those sales need to go SOMEWHERE and although no one is buying yet - there is a lesson to be learned in owning a stock with a low multiple, high dividend, innovative management team and strong balance sheet. As a reminder, we have together been through a crap load worse with this stock but hey - what the heck do I know - hope springs eternal. Enjoy your chicken wings and guacamole n' chips...and chillax for the evening for tomorrow we start once again like the old Greek myth of King Sisyphus!

Middle of the night weekend musings.
We are living in the middle of the greatest human motion study ever conducted. The Apple Watch is generating a data set correlated by weather and season, geography and altitude, population density and demographic, date and time. A researcher equipped with such a data set should be able to parse the 20% best of us that exercise enough for the rest of us, the world geographies best suited for walking, running, cycling; and which areas are most prone to generate couch potatoes. Do aggregate heart rates increase on Mondays in North America, and is there a significant difference between New York and London and Singapore in that regard? Can you expect to slow down on rainy days, or does the rain get you up and moving? The data will only get better with blood sugar, blood pressure, galvanic response, temperature, and sleep information informing the answers. Apple would be foolish not to leverage the transformative nature of their multi-million subject data collection effort, anonymized for the benefit of humanity, at their next Apple Watch event. The heat-map visualizations alone must be stunning. No other company cares about changing the world. Apple needs to dig out three jaw dropping examples of what we have all done and underscore yet again how there is no other company able to deliver such transformative insights, enabled by personally secure hardware and software for the benefit of humankind.
I am 100% confident that the winner of this years Super Bowl will be Team A or Team B.
Best wishes to all as you move to cash for the crash of 2016.
AAPL all the way to the moon!

Started reading about Eric Hunsader., Founder of a software company called Nanex. "He is a market data expert whose tools for spotting patterns and solving puzzles are indispensable to traders. But he’s also a vocal critic of market structures he believes punish investors, and he frequently assails high-frequency traders, exchanges and government regulators". Started following him on Twitter. www.marketwatch.com/story/this-man-wants-to-upend-the-world-of-high-frequency-trading-2016-02-02

I've been following Hunsader for a while. A bit of an obsessed crank, but good he's out there. Problem is, the only thing worse than an unregulated market is one regulated by bozos like Chuck Schumer.
77F in SoCal today.
I hope everyone enjoys the game today.
