Thank you AAPL for the small moment :) hope you recover next week <3

GOOGL and AAPL up tho!
Don’t be baited, AAPL loses its gains AH and overnight like the little shit it is
The moment I sold AAPL this morning, it fucking skyrockets Can’t make this shit up. Fuck you MMs and fuckt his garbage market
In all this chaos, AAPL is bullish. Why would it have to be a company I dislike?
It seems old tech moves counter to new tech and semiconductors. My Texas Instruments is down quite a bit, yet AAPL and MSFT are up. You'd actually want a portfolio that behaves in a way such as yours to act as a buffer on volatile days.
AAPL is the only green I see gyatt dayum
Crazy AAPL starting a little v all for a foldable phone of which Samsung is in their 8th generation.
MSFT AAPL GOOG AMZN all just end of month window dressing
AAPL getting hammered by Drill Team Six now. I have they don't take a break.
AMZN, MSFT, GOOG, META and AAPL all still big green. NVDA tanked but not far off from where it was. Is SPY lying or is most of the Mag 7 lying?
Dear AAPL. Die. Thank you for your matter to this attention.
I think it's still in the anti-ai play mode... But my AAPL put is hoping for the same thing...
AAPL customers are into butt stuff so has no impact.
I don’t see how AAPL doesn’t get crushed by high memory prices
AAPL may have a little more play left in it for the day.
So instead of everything dying so the market can full port into NVDA, instead everything is dying so that the market can full port into AMZN, MSFT, and AAPL Love this market.
Keep in mind i"m just a retarded ber but GOOG and AAPL make the most sense as the ones to survive past the ber months.
Total market meltdown and the only puts I got are AAPL 317.5 0DTE 🤡
So AAPL isn't allowed under 223. Load those calls bois
AAPL Amzn Microsoft calls were all free money. So many 0dte ten baggers
AAPL moves are absolutely retarded. The hardest to track. Feels like it's a stock made solely for money laundering.
Market went up cause I sold AAPL
META vs MSFT vs AMZN vs AAPL
I was one of your friends in 2012, actually probably more like 2010. I had an uncle continually telling me to dump my money into AAPL and to leave it for 10-15 years. My assessment, there was no way that a company already worth $300 billion was a good investment if I was looking for something that was going to 2X-3X, a trillion dollar company…no way. Instead I bought a bunch of shit bag companies that are now irrelevant.
Ive been bagholding AAPL $330c Sept 18 exp since earnings, I may just buy more. Iphone event on Sept 8th with a $3000 foldable iphone gonna send this bitch skyhigh lol
Inverse me for free money: I will be opening AAPL MU SNDK calls at open
The moment I buy AAPL calls at open, it will drill back down to $310.

They clearly decided AAPL is the top AI hedge so it won't really tank long run Also what on earth is this price action
Why the fuck is $AAPL so strong intraday, jesus fuck. I thought it should've gone down now that semis caught a bid and money rotates out.

Did some news drop on AAPL?
Lmao the control they have over AAPL is fucking insane. Can completely reverse any downtrend in one fucking candle.
I don’t want to overstate the reach of the average WSB thread on any given day, which is surely pretty small. But retail investors own something like 20-25% of the large-cap S&P500, and possibly more like 30% for high-tech stocks like NVDA, AAPL, MSFT. Less than institutional investors, but a sizable chunk and more than enough to influence prices. They’re also about 20% of daily trading volume. It’s a lot higher in a post-Robinhood, post-WSB, and post-COVID world. Under-estimation of the size and influence of the retail market is *part* of the reason meme stocks like GME and AMC had their explosive moments a few years ago. I’m not saying it’s simple to manufacture another viral moment like that (especially not with giant market-cap tech stocks), but don’t discount the size and power of the retail market at large.
I'm so tired of AAPL's bullshit every. fucking. day.
NVDA: LET’S FUCKING GO!! AAPL, META, MSFT, GOOG: no
it'll b funny cause now trump says to Apple u can go buy CXMT chips, but wait u also need to pay the tariff. Then AAPL is like wtf? The whole idea was to get cheap china shit for my iphone, not paying more!!!
Everythings fucking green except AAPL Fuck my life man
I trade extended hours exclusively. Hence, I don’t pay attention to what happens in MH because I don’t need additional emotions driven by FOMO. If you don’t trade extended hours, then there is not much need to pay attention to what happens in extended hours outside of knowing if something gaps up vs down how that’s likely to influence the day for your stocks in play. I will say based your comment about these moves happening in extended hours, that’s because 90%+ of news is released in extended hours. I saw some stats a few times (didn’t personally verify them so take it with a grain of salt) that if you bought companies like NVDA or AAPL (really any of these larger companies) at market close and sold at market open every day it’s historical results were fuckin astonishing compared to if you bought at market open and sold at close. Basically the stats laid out that a majority of the capital appreciation in your position of these companies happen while in extended hours. Again that’s because most news is released after hours, where halts don’t interfere with momentum and trends. Companies don’t want the knee jerk reaction to happen during MH where halts could seriously damper a positive move.
Surely AAPL calls are the most obvious right? New iPhone and announcement Sept 9

Don't even ask the question. The answer is yes, it's priced in. Think Amazon will beat the next earnings? That's already been priced in. You work at the drive thru for Mickey D's and found out that the burgers are made of human meat? Priced in. You think insiders don't already know that? The market is an all powerful, all encompassing being that knows the very inner workings of your subconscious before you were even born. Your very existence was priced in decades ago when the market was valuing Standard Oil's expected future earnings based on population growth that would lead to your birth, what age you would get a car, how many times you would drive your car every week, how many times you take the bus/train, etc. Anything you can think of has already been priced in, even the things you aren't thinking of. You have no original thoughts. Your consciousness is just an illusion, a product of the omniscent market. Free will is a myth. The market sees all, knows all and will be there from the beginning of time until the end of the universe (the market has already priced in the heat death of the universe). So please, before you make a post on wsb asking whether AAPL has priced in earpods 11 sales or whatever, know that it has already been priced in and don't ask such a dumb fucking question again.
I love how AAPL tanks -$3 right after I immediately buy calls on it. FUCK you MMs
There are people here buying puts on AAPL? To the moon it goes
Full ported $50k into AAPL Nov $320 calls
this time I absolutely disagree with M. Burry about NVDA and SOXL. the real risk is geopolitical and macro, valuation is fine there is no bubble in the MAG7 (just AAPL is still overvalued) You cannot value NVDA with discounted cash flow model. I guess relative valuation is not studied enough nowadays but it's the king in todays market.
Anyone else iPhone start fucking up now that the new one almost out? All in on AAPL leaps
AAPL is a menace, they always find a way to fucc you over
never hated AAPL more than I do right now
If you didn't just make money off that AAPL move with 0DTEs what are you even doing
Who here is buying AAPL folding phone for $2k+?
I still have sizable GOOGL shares position so I am not completely out so I will still be profitable on the way up, but without having a time limit. Most of my calls I closed today would be AMD and AAPL. Only calls I have left are AMZN $260c I bought near its low today and $270c I bought a couple of weeks ago.
Market looking defensive heading into earnings tonight with AAPL up today. If earnings go well NVDA tanks anyways but the AI trade continues
AAPL's PE is double GOOGs. That is really fucked up!
NVDA, AAPL, META, AMZN on discount
AAPL taking these calls I wrote up to max profit
AAPL spike Odte on fire
I'm honestly about to full port AAPL, AVGO and TSM
AAPL is going to run heavy on the M5, M6 local inference strat
Not to sound like a boomer, but AAPL might be the play. Semis going to explode and AAPL always inverses them/ AI trade.

You could do wxchange funds to trade your AAPL into other securities without accuring a sale. Then you are diversified out of that stock for later without being forced to sell.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exchange_fund
Typical dude. META/METU fucked me and between 2x leveraged METU and margin, I was down way more than 10%. I sold at a loss because with my luck, if I had held META would have been found guilty, 1.5 trillion would successfully be fined, and they'd go out of business. So I rotated into NVDA on Friday. Got smoked on Monday, almost made it back to break even today. But jesus christ dude. I'm watching META go up and up and up, while I'm holding my dick watching NVDA shit the bed yesterday. Fuck my life dude. Between AAPL's 10% drop after earnings and META getting fucked from this trial, August has royally fucked me over.
AAPL is not likely to crash-you can spread it out over 10 years if you need to for tax purposes. (I have similar issue w AAPL—up 1500% in 15 years)
Example: AAPL is currently trading at 310. I sell a CALL option expiring September 18 for $4. This results in a $400 credit. If AAPL is below 310 on September 18, the option expires worthless, and I gained $400 income. If AAPL is above 310 on September 18, I am forced to sell the shares for $310. This is effectively like selling for $314 since I already collected $400 premium. The downside of this approach is if AAPL surges to 350, I've "lost" $36/share of potential profit. This is the main pitfall of covered calls.
Here’s the Claude answer: Good problem to have. Here’s a few things worth flagging back to them: **The 0% LTCG bracket only applies to the gain, not the sale amount.** So the plan needs to be sized around cost basis, not total proceeds. If most of that $200k is gain (likely, given $500 → $200k), $49k/year in *gains* could push them well past the 0% threshold (\~$47k single / \~$94k married for 2024, adjusted for inflation each year) once other income (Social Security, pension, etc.) is added in. Worth running actual numbers rather than assuming $49k stays clean. **Other income counts too.** If they’re taking Social Security or have any other income at 62, that stacks on top of the capital gains and can blow through the 0% bracket fast. **Concentration risk during the 4-year unwind.** Stretching the sale over 4 years to save on taxes means 4 years of single-stock risk on money they’ve decided they want out of. A drop in AAPL during that window could cost more than the tax savings. Worth weighing tax optimization against just diversifying. **Alternatives to mention:** If they’re charitably inclined, donating appreciated shares directly avoids capital gains entirely and gets a deduction. If they don’t need the money and want to leave it to heirs, holding until death gives a stepped-up basis — heirs pay no capital gains on the appreciation. Gifting shares to lower-income family members before selling can shift the gain into their bracket. Some use exchange funds to diversify a concentrated position without triggering a sale, though those usually require large minimums and multi-year lockups. Bottom line: the instinct to spread sales across years to manage the tax bracket is reasonable, but the math needs to be based on basis and total income, not just proceeds — and it’s worth asking whether the tax savings are worth the extra years of concentration risk. Not a substitute for a CPA or fee-only advisor running their actual numbers, though.
Similar situation with AAPL. I am doing exactly what you are doing, but MFJ gives me 90K which is actually about 120k with the deduction. Doing that from age 63-65. Of course reassess every year....then Getting on the SS band wagon.
Not a better idea inherently, but an option available to you that is additive with what you’re considering. Do you have any regular charitable contributions that you would be making anyway? If yes, create a DAF. Donate appreciated AAPL to it, give to your desired charities through DAF. Then the relief in your budget (by donating via DAF rather than out of pocket) is your additional cash flow.
some crazy mfs were shoveling AAPL 0DTE 305 by the hundreds near closing wtf
AAPL can we do an up tomorrow, ah please

Looks like AAPL wants to get gay with GOOGL and AMZN.
