Again, AAPL is outperforming the broader market.

Nice $1T recap 4aapl.
I've been using $193 as a proxy for a while. I anticipate there will be ample discussion as AAPL gets closer and, unfortunately, FUD and perhaps some resistance.
The nice thing is AAPL is less than 7% away. Imagine where the 'right' news could take things.
Not to be negative but there are a couple of pesky GAPs below us -- including one from this morning. Too many years of watching AAPL suggests they will get filled at some point.

Interestingly, both the DOW and the S&P have turned RED. AAPL is outperforming. As it should be.

I'd be thrilled to get half of what is mentioned in the comments section... Incidentally, I agree with the comment that actions on the dividend alone have the potential to significantly drive AAPL.

A run for $180?!?!? Can AAPL take it... and hold it?

I recall when a good jobs report would cause a sell off because the economy was too hot and the Fed would increase the rate. Showing our age...

Just a point of context, the East Coast is in the midst of a blizzard. While we tend to view markets as impervious in this electronic age, it does impact the people pressing the buttons.

Quiet here and in the market today.
FWIW... according to maximum-pain.com, max pain is about $175... sounds low to me, but I haven't done the calculations myself.

Just a reminder, it is not unusual for a stock to take multiple runs at a resistance level before breaking through. I am heartened by the progress AAPL is making over the last few days, even if it hasn't been able to hold $180. Besides, I want to keep Artman gainfully employed.

I feel like I'm watching "Ground Hog Day". Fortunately each day is improving and AAPL is still outperforming the larger market.

Let's have a discussion on Market Timing. How many 'time' the markets for your sales and purchases?
We should start by clarifying terms. Many consider it market timing if you are looking at factors such as RSI, Gaps, or just 'observing' the 'wave'. Similarly, not market timing suggests one is placing orders without regard to the underlying activity in the market -- such as making sales/purchases on regular schedule or 'auto-reinvesting' dividends.
I 'time' all sales and purchases. For instance, I rarely buy stock the day a dividend is paid. Indeed, when I was actively trading options anticipated dividend bumps were relevant in my calculations. When I do buy on (near) dividend day it is during periods of relatively low RSI with few (no) gaps behind us. Indeed, more and more I tend wait for gap fills to make my purchases.
My 'timing' efforts have been relatively successful. Of course there have been times I missed, but more often than not I hit. I validate my efforts through various measures and cumulate the gains or (losses).
How do you decide the moment to buy and sell?
