AAPL

ralphy112

40 years in the stock market is a LONG time. Multiple generations. I can't even imagine how things were in 1985, and they were vastly different than now. What I can tell you is that I remember very well when AAPL reached 1 trillion in 2018. It kind of leaped up the last 5% just to touch 1 trillion, and I was onboard and happy for some gains. I also non-seriously thought to myself--- "well that was a nice run, time to look around for some other stocks, because it certainly isn't reasonable to reach 2 trillion, double its value." I basically thought there was a ceiling, and it had reached it, and time to find some other smaller companies who hadn't. Well today its at 4.12 trillion. It achieved that rather quickly, and is still financially healthy. Sure, "it can't keep growing on iphones anymore". Well, they've also been saying that for 10 years, they somehow have been okay overall. When I was young, not yet investing, I rememeber when dow hit 10k. My coworker then talked about it, and sort of said he wasn't likely to live to see it hit 20k, and that it probably wouldn't. He wasn't old. Well, it's also now at 50k. The economy isn't stopping. Whether AAPL, or any of the mag 7 are leading the charge to 40trillion, or even 10/15T is another story. For a sobering wakeup just think about CISCO, DELL, or any of the old guard of leaders. Best just to be on the winning team.

AAPL keeping RAM upgrade prices the same right now. AAPL 300

AIONisMINE

i have been keeping an eye on MSFT lately. and have been selling puts on it. i have been interested in meta but lost interest once they shot back up (I think after their slight dip, it went back up \~\~14ish%?) so i changed focus to msft. in general, i dont think PE comparison to each other really means much in this day and age for massive companys. They touch to much aspects of various things that its not really a close comparison. an obvious one would be AMZN, AAPL, NVDA. are they related in some ways? yes of course without a doubt. But they are also so vastly different from each other. So i dont put alot of weight in P/E as long as its not something crazy. that said, as i said before, i think MSFT had been having a panic drop by investors due to various reasons or another. and i think MSFT is poised to atleast regain its recent drop.

AAPL AI division is GOOGL now

AAPL leadership changes means we gonna see real innovation again

Finance_In_Flight

I dont want to point you incorrectly, since I am no professional. Personally I buy and hold ETFs and also large companies like GOOG and AAPL (just 2 examples), then have quicker buy and sell on more volatile stocks. But everyone has their own strategy, people who are much smarter than me would say I am wrong, so do some deep research and dont just take everything random people say as fact! :)

Construction has been slowing down as the real estate market starts to move down. We simply built too many houses in the last years. That's my concern. The company itself seems alright. https://preview.redd.it/l7b1axkzcu5g1.png?width=1519&format=png&auto=webp&s=7260fce3dd7f12ebede42f569c9fa82d9dc9c2ab Real estate is at 2021 levels still. Demand for new construction has slowed way down. Besides, there isn't a single construction materials company that is on the level of AMZN, AAPL, TSLA and so on. It's construction materials. The bottom line comes down to risk management. Most, if not all, of us here understand that a quest for the holy grail or the Fountain of Youth is a draining task and is almost guaranteed to result in losses. That's why most of us here in the penny stocks world are traders, not investors. Sure, you can invest in a penny stock and maybe you'll get lucky. But the laws of probability are not going to be in your favor. Not by a long shot. So, investing in penny stocks isn't a great decision, just fundamentally. I think this is the fork in the road that splits us up between two camps here. Someone else can come along and make an argument for why it's the best decision you can make. But I digress.

anewnormal

AAPL gonna rally. The "exodus" narrative is lazy. Gruber says employees are giddy about the design leadership change. They poached Microsoft's AI VP. Federighi running Siri now. The rest are just retirements from people who've been there 10+ years. People inside the building seem fine with this.

No-Block-2095

I don’t need to allocate all my Large equity to XMAG. So I will still get I’m considering adding Meta, Goog MSFt & Amzn Maybe add NVDA & AAPL at half the normal weigh and zero TSLA

Hungry-Kick1389

Really it depends on how much money you’re talking about and what that sum is in relation to the rest of your net worth/holdings. If this is everything you own, then sell all of them and put that into something like VOO or diversify into other stocks like AAPL, GOOGL, WMT. If this is just a sliver of your holdings, then keep it and see where the dice roll takes you. Also, if you happen to own 100 shares of any of these, then sell covered calls to generate some revenue for yourself on the positions, which I love to do if I’m in profit

chf_gang

when you look at how mag7 and other big tech stocks the narratives are constantly shifting, especially with 'new tech' coming out at such a rapid rate. obviously GOOG is doing great right now and OpenAI and Anthropic look done for but who knows what the future will look like? But less than 1 year ago that narrative was completely backwards. And maybe AMZN or META or AAPL will do something in the next couple of months to change the story again

SMK_12

Tbh when I first got interested in investing like 10 years the most talked about stocks on here were stocks like AMD, NVDA, AAPL, GOOGL, TSLA, and AMZN. As a broke college kid I bought a tiny bit of each but of course thought I could be a genius day trader so sold instead of just buying and holding. I learned my lessons over the years and ended up doing fine but it’s safe to say Reddit actually was a very good resource. The average person could’ve been buying even modest amounts from that time and would’ve changed their lives if they held.

SubstantialMaize2564

This sub is full of haters I swear 🤣 never mind the fact that $AMZN, $AAPL, $TSLA, etc, etc were all once penny stocks & the *real* goal is to find the diamonds in the rough, let’s play games with volatile trash companies & get stuck holding the bag half the time… 🤙

snookers

I remember reading coverage of $AAPL in the 2010’s that simply said $500b was too incredible, then the same all the way up through $1T.

mehmilani

20% pump over mere AAPL rumor.

Rivercitybruin

You nailed the key question.. If Mag 7 crash, will PEP, CAT go down 15% or even much more? I wonder.. Can other AI stocks,do well if NVDA crashes?.. GOOG beats NVDA ala AAPL beat BBRY?.. Or just all of it tanks?

TrueCommunication440

Following this line of thought, NVDA, META, TSLA, AAPL (& PLTR) all had significant pullbacks in the past 12 months. Are you thinking they'll have another big dip?

hurthur1

I can't see AAPL winning the AI race.

TernTheNumbers

More like AAPL unloads its over-the-hill boomer designers onto META.

AAPL GOOG MSFT META should actually just merge and create a whole new country

ThanklessWaterHeater

Someone said this to me, almost word for word, when I told them I had just bought some shares of AAPL in 2005.

moorhound

AAPL's tech talent flees for big paychecks at META and leaves the company to wither resting on it's laurels as a phone/PC company in a world of way better phones/PCs META hordes the talent and wastes a bunch of money screwing it up as it withers while sucking on the teat of it's screaming boomer lifeline GOOGL wins, and keeps on winning. Calls on GOOGL

$AAPL is a terrible call.  It’s insanely overpriced as is given it has had no growth.  Buying apple now is basically just speculating

As smart and rich as Buffet is, he missed obvious opportunities in tech for decades and I find that fascinating. He could’ve been 10x Elon if he bought NVDA, GOOG or NFLX 25 years ago. He did jump on AAPL but at the very end of his investment career. I’m sure his kids will be ok

Google has an unfair advantage really. So much data and user access. AAPL could do it too for the normies.

I sold AAPL at $44 back around 2000 which was 100% return. Oops.

AAPL GOOGL are my forever holds

Sick0h

🤷🏻‍♂️ less than 6 months since the same thing was said for AAPL and GOOG.

cuntish_libtard

You do realize that $NVDA, $AMZN, $GOOGL, $AAPL, $TSLA, $NFLX, $CRM, $PLTR—you see where I’m going with this?—have all gone down 50%, most of them more. So what you’re saying is that you can’t do math. OP is 100% right. You are picking up pennies while people who know what they’re doing are compounding their wealth over time. It’s one thing to gamble and trade it’s another entirely to lie to yourself and act like it’s a retirement plan.

AAPL 300

Iunatic

It's an endless cycle on reddit. P/E is not a good metric to value newly profitable, high growth companies. It is why they will never catch stocks like AAPL, NFLX, AMZN, PLTR, RDDT, or TSLA until it's too late

bdh2067

He’s made a lot of them a lot of money. All they had to do was own some AAPL shares. This seems kinder than what most have done for any community in amerika

boringexplanation

It doesn’t hurt that AAPL was the most idiot proof way to make money. That company was demolishing earnings every quarter and every wannabe stock genius was trying to be contrarian and pick something else besides the exponential growth stock that had 30 p/e or less at all times. AAPL was the perfect growth and value stock. It could not miss.

boringexplanation

I did all the time in my 20s- bought loads of AMZN, AAPL, and NFLX during the 2010s. The next “game changer company” is me keeping the stock in the long term.

Heyhayheigh

Forest gump came out in 94, if you bought 1k AAPL (forest bought in the movie) then and held until now, that’s like a million dollars. Concentration is good for wealth creation, and you’re right, it is risky. I invest in single stocks I like the same way I do VOO or QQQM, buy auto and weekly and only sell when I have urgent bill to pay for (so basically never). If you’re young, and you don’t panic sell, you will be fine. If you choose stocks you have to monitor, you already messed up. Nothing wrong with buying companies you believe in, accumulate and set to auto. You can do both: ETF, and buy good companies. If you gamble and get burnt, learn the lesson or don’t. Life goes on.

Can it take AAPL down with it too?

New_Ad_1682

I had 327 shares, sold all but six at just over my cost basis of 180. It's a great company but I've only been managing my own portfolio for a few months and in that time GOOG jumped 60% and AAPL jumped 20% (those were the only other stocks I had 15% or more of my port in). NVDA is a great company and likely will be for a long time but it just doesn't gain anymore. Like it's too fat to kayak or something.

TJMBeav

Really need $AAPL to bust thru 278 soon

Satoshinakamoto99

April, 2025 Bought 300k worth of NVDA, GOOGL, MSFT, AMZN, SPY, QQQ November 2025 Sold all my GOOGL($53k gain), most of NVDA(28k gain with 10k left unrealized), AMZN(13k gain), MSFT(16k gain), and QQQ(12k gain). Roughly $122k realized gains and I paid about 24k in estimated taxes I am still holding SPY, NVDA, AAPL, MSFT, and AMZN (roughly 250k total). I have a lot of cash that I will continue to DCA slowly into SPY and drop larger amounts into individual stocks above when they dip 10% or more

biz_student

True, it seems though that this repricing of WBD would have downstream implications for DIS as it highlights the market’s opinion on IP valuation. Interesting we haven’t seen any movement for DIS despite them having more IP, a better flywheel for exposing IP, and better profitability. Disney is very unlikely to auction themselves, but there are companies like BRK, AAPL, and AMZN that could buy Disney without financing.

greenpride32

The key is to buy companies that have a dominant position in some area, keep track of both their industry and their financials to ensure top/bottom line growth exists and/or some form of share holder return - buybucks, increased distributions. When those factors are no longer present that's when you sell. If you look at MSFT AMZN GOOGL AAPL MA V - why do they go up over time? Because top and bottom lines are all growing consistently over time. By same token you have stocks that swing form profit to loss, that toggle from rising to decling sales/profit and they do not outperform the index. So why sell the former when the ship is heading in the right direction? The answer is you don't. I don't recall if it was Buffet or Lynch who said sometimes the best stock to buy is the one you already own - they are saying the same thing - when the going is good, you don't get out. I had NFLX stock for close to 10 years. It has gone from under $100 (pre split numbers) to $600, down to under $200, back up to $1000. They are growing the important financial metrics year after year - I don't care what the share price noise was - I care how the company itself is doing. I can say same for AMZN MSFT NVDA stock. I held AAPL during financial crisis and it went down over 50%. Does that mean the iPhone went bust? Of course not, the markets were crashing and it was a macro issue. So it's your fault, and yours alone if you can't hold onto a stock for a long period of time.

Horror_Attitude5481

AAPL u can do it buddy!

SuperHeroww

You’ve got a pretty concentrated growth/AI tilt on top of broad US and global ETFs, so your overall risk is heavily tied to large-cap tech even though VT and XLU add some diversification. One way to sanity-check your predictions is to look at what portion of your portfolio is in broad indexes (VOO/VT/QQQ) versus single names (NVDA, AAPL, META, DUOL, ANET) and ask how you’d feel if the AI/mega-cap theme underperforms for a few years. VT slowly becoming your top holding will naturally reduce single-stock risk over time, while XLU is a small but useful ballast if rates stay lower. If you want to visualize how much of your portfolio is really in US tech versus other sectors and regions, a tool like [WizardFolio.com](http://WizardFolio.com) or any ETF look-through site can help you see the underlying exposures more clearly.

spamdongle

Thanks, appreciate it! I must say, the 61 day thing confuses me. So lets say I'm trading a given stock several times this fall, let's say AAPL. I am generating some losses, which get carried over into the subsequent cost basis of the next AAPL position(s)--this makes sense to me. But, when would I need to make my *final* exit from AAPL (and not repurchase) in order to be able to apply any AAPL losses to the 2025 tax year? End of December? End of January?

FiveEggHeads

Genuine question - why is AAPL's leadership team suddenly dissolving?

Horror_Attitude5481

AAPL cant even hold a pump in AH. my calls r fked

aka0007

If those shares were bought back in 1985 that works out to about a 21% average annual cumulative return. S&P 500 for that period (with dividends reinvested) was about 11.75% for that period, so you beat the SP500 with AAPL which is always a good thing.

Forward-Carrot6200

Yeah, I know the AAPL designer news isn’t the driver here. META s move today is mainly flow positioning: tech got a boost from the rate cut expectations yields dropping, and META just rode that momentum with the rest of the high beta names. The individual headline didn t cause the rally macro liquidity did. I just traded the bounce using my golden pit setup, not the news itself.
