I wanted to post this separately because I didn't want you to miss it while performing evasive maneuvers.
By your own admission, you not a financial expert but that didn't preclude you from coming on here each and every time I posted anything related to apple and p1ss1ng on my post. Actually come to think of it, you showed up p1ss1ng on my posts when I was putting up some analysis on other stuff……..just because hiding behind you keyboard you could.
First and foremost, I don't believe a mug like you has a single share of anything never mind apple. When I hear things like "I called my broker" when virtually all trades are now done with the click of a mouse, when I see someone displaying massive ignorance about the markets yet claim to have an investment in one of the most complex companies to analyze, when I see someone admit they don't know what "the Qs" are when apple has by far the biggest influence on that trade, when I see someone posting they had no idea what pension plan they belonged in yet they have money invested in a $700 stock, then I roll my eyes and say out loud "you're joking?". Then I laugh.
When you invest in a company with a "buy and hold" mentality that you seem to have, as a minimum you should understand their business model. Understanding the in and outs of the sector they compete in is also a big plus. You are a clueless mug who instead of listening and learning you decided being ignorant and annoying is a better way to show off. So you kept spewing "buy apple", no explanation needed, just "buy apple" while at the same time taking shots at me by suggesting that I was shorting it. Yes, buy apple, shouted from the top of your lungs like a religious zealot revealing the words of Jesus to the primitive natives for the first time. What part of "apple has become a safe heaven play" that I posted didn't you understand?
Do you know who was the largest market cap company not to long ago? CISCO, that went in a virtual straight line up to its highs. Do you know at around $16/share where they rank now?
Do you know that US Steel was the largest market company at one time not too long ago? Do you know where they rank now? They don't, they don't exist.
Now, I'm not suggesting apple is the same but I'd venture a guess a lot of investors in those two companies thought they'd be that way forever. Much like some fanboys like you thought.
Now you are "spooked".
You wouldn't have been if you paid attention instead of erupting in an orgasm every time you iPhone vibrated.
Finally, have you ever been on a real trading floor. I don't mean seeing one in the movies. I mean an actual real life trading floor?
I think not.
Because if you did, and looked around at the capital at their disposal, the capital investment in technology, and the intellectual capital running around, you'd go back and hide under your mommy's purse and stop posting sh1t on here.
