AAPL calls anyone? They withdraw from the idea of not manufacturing all glass iPhones that’s a big one!
AAPL tomorrow! Calls for sure
I was surprised to get off work today and see this. I'm only a few months into investing and one share of CRWV. I was down $20 the past couple weeks, then went up $10. I refuse to sell if a stock is down because the first rule is never lose money. Now I'm contemplating selling if it hits $125. But then I'll be tempted to hold for $150. The company doesn't seem to ever make a profit which makes me question why I ever have it. Learning as I go and may just stick with the main big dogs; AMZN, GOOG and AAPL.
CAPE ratio is based on older style economy that was nearly all based on 5-10% margin businesses like car manufacturing, steel and metals, consumer goods, etc. that are the "E" part of CAPE. Todays economy is WAY , way more centered on much higher margin businesses like technology, communications, and information. NVDA's margin is a whopping 75% and MSFT, AAPL, GOOGL and many others are north of 50%. New economy earnings (the "E" again) vs old economy of much lower (WAY lower) margins.
2% day incoming as NVDA do 230 & AAPL 315
Something big has to be sold off over the next couple of months to generate the 2 trillion in cash needed to buy OpenAI and Anthropic IPOs. Most likely GOOGl, TSLA, AAPL, AMZN, or even MSFT again. 😆😂
lol fair 😂 That’s actually pretty close to what I was getting at. Like you throw in SPY + QQQ + VUG and instead of seeing 3 ETF names, it shows you the combined underlying companies + your actual exposure to each one I’d probably want more than just the company list though. Like combined weight in NVDA/MSFT/AAPL, sector concentration, overlap %, maybe how those exposures behaved in drawdowns Would that be the kind of thing you mean, or are you mainly looking for a simple “here’s everything you effectively own” breakdown?
#Every time I place an order for a contract, its price immediately jumps $50-100. I even tried super liquid contracts like SPY, NVDA and AAPL. This is the hidden commission MMs charge you in "cOmMisSioN fReE" trading. LMAO🤌
AAPL do something immediately
When you try to scalp AAPL calls & end up getting stuck.....
lol even if an executive retires, your stock drops. This goofy fucking market. Sorry that happened to you AAPL
Bro wtf? My fkn AAPL calls are toast !
Why is AAPL not up a zillion percent on news of phone price hikes? You ever met an Apple user? Some of the dumbest and most brand-loyal motherfuckers I've ever met. They would buy a new iPhone even if it cost as much as a used 2022 Honda Accord. Calls lol
AAPL is playing with my emotions
AAPL going sub 300 from the looks of it
Calls on AAPL will give at least 10% by end september yes or no?
AAPL only gets used on days where market needs saved. Congrats AAPL you did it.
What i am gaining in META, AAPL is making sure that I lose it all
AAPL just falling off a cliff
I agree with you. What are you favorite plays, given the assumptions you've made? I figure the old GOOG/MSFT/AMZN will be the big winners, along with AAPL eventually and META. Software is the PRIMARY beneficiary right now, which could be disruptive, but I think most of the firm-moat companies that are around now will be around later, just with fewer employees (which means more profitable). How are you playing this? Man, I really missed the boat when those Mythos headlines came out. I knew I should have been buying cyber security stocks at the time. I even had owned Fortinet for a long time but sold when it went through a full year of going absolutely fucking nowhere and then BOOM.
Imagine being bearish on AAPL
Bought way too much AAPL today and need some hopium smoke blown up my ass please thanks

Bunch of green candles on various tickers (TSLA, GOOG, AAPL) during that dump. looks more like someone big got out of semi's and rotated to mag7
AAPL is on a discount. It would be dumb for me not to YOLO my whole portfolio on calls
It’s odd to me that NVDA plateaued these days. Has fuck all growth. Granted, it’s huge, but still. AAPL and GOOGL have bigger swings than them!
AAPL when it hit 220
AAPL or ur ghey. Heard those folks have fun parades tho
You can smell the swing from AAPL
Appreciate that. I would never actually short AAPL. It can go on a wild ass run. But seeing it pop up to $330 pre-earnings was sort of a no brainer. I do think it will break $300. But if the whole market moons, it will get carried along, since it's such a large component of the QQQs. But Puts at opportune times is not the worst idea. Edit: I will probably buy puts before the new iphone release (depending on whether its much higher from here or not)
Same, my fair price for AAPL is like 220 but I'll start buying it from 250 and below.
I've been saying this for months - AAPL with single digit revenue growth, exploding costs, and a forward PE of 40... If you're long, you're a retard. Let me guess, waiting for Siri AI and the "upgrade super-cycle" 🤡
Ouch AAPL and NVDA holders Dont worry I also got 90% of my port wiped clean by AMD last friday
I'm long ORCL and short AAPL
Compare the QoQ sales for AAPL in China over the past 12 quarters. Adjust the numbers for holidays cyclicality and then look at the growth. Compare it to any other U.S. competitor. Margins matter because people are paying the premium in China of all places (high margins are really difficult to sustain in that market, there are tons of articles and research on this you can look up). This imo is really impressive growth.
Currently sitting in an ambulance after picking up some dude absolutely hammered behind a Wendy’s, praying my $AAPL calls rip so I can forget how my morning is going.
I need AAPL back to 240-250 to start buying :cry:
$AAPL is doing nothing after open. I wanna gamble but my calls are doing nothing…..
$AAPL is discount. 20k on calls, leettttt it RIDDDDDEEEEEE
> AAPL Jefferies downgrade — Analyst Edison Lee cut the rating to Underperform from Hold and lowered the price target by ~7.7% to $263.66 (from $285.56). He cited the apparent cancellation of Apple’s planned all-glass iPhone due to low production yields, calling it “a major setback” for efforts to sell higher-priced models.
AAPL was downgraded is all I can see.
Oh lordy AAPL. Jeffereies dun fucked yo calls.
AAPL is tanking bc they begged cxmt to sell memory for cheap and got told f off
AAPL bargain at open. ex dividend today.
I would be scared as shit holding those. AAPL and GOOGL seem to be just freeballing.
Pineapple AAPL pen
AAPL really wants me to buy calls again
AAPL weeklies right at open
Yeah that makes it difficult for them to enter and sustain their footing in a market that is heavily commoditized and very reliant on open source OS. Once the penetration has occurred (like it did in U.S.), the ecosystem argument makes sense, but the fact they were able to sustain their margins and grow in Chinese markets shows (at least to me) that there is some sort of product differentiation that users are adopting AAPL products despite cheaper and more accessible options.
AAPL at 250 would still be too high lmao
Called the AAPL squeeze. Enjoy duchesses.
$AAPL downgraded to Underperform from Hold at Jefferies - lowers PT to $263.66 from $285.56
Ouch AAPL Glad I got out of there But I went full port on SPY 765 PUTS exp today So I might be fucked anyways
Yeah I agree, and TSLA is no AAPL. The fact that AAPL was able to hold margins and penetrate Chinese markets was crazy to me
AAPL is at $314 u dumbass
Auch $AAPL ** - APPLE MAY ABSORB IPHONE 18 PRO COST SURGE** Apple may limit price hikes for the iPhone 18 Pro despite component costs expected to jump 38%, according to TrendForce. Soaring memory prices are the main driver, with memory projected to exceed 40% of component costs by early 2027, up from just 10% a year earlier. To protect demand, Apple could accept lower profit margins—or raise prices on older iPhones to offset the added costs.
put like half in voo, and other half into blue chip stock with fat dividend to reinvest(AAPL, MSFT,GOOG). buy a new PC and game everyday, go to a easy job and put the paycheck in voo. you will sleep like baby and outlive 90% of ppl here happily
AAPL tanking…. Well this is good bye
If nothing else, Warren Buffett should have been buying more AAPL all those years he sat around buying T-Bills.
Usually, I would say it's worth listening to both bullish and bearish arguments, but recognizing the biases that come from the source. - Aswath Damodaran is generally very rational and level headed, and he was enthusiastic about the Mag 7 in 2022, and he's clearly grown more bearish on them at this point. Always worth a listen. - Michael Burry has been quite wrong recently, including calling the market bubble in 2023. Even though he remains bearish on big tech and the market overall, I think he's still worth a listen if you recognize that he comes with a value investor's bias. He still does solid research and he's shown in the past that he's willing to bet on tech companies, including AAPL in the late 1990s when everyone left them for dead, and again in 2011. - I often disagree strongly with the positions of individual tech analysts like Dan Niles (NVDA in 2024) and Gene Munster and Gil Luria (GOOG in 2025). But they still know more about me than tech, and they're allowed to change their theses based on new data. The only exception I have is for Zitron. He's had an ax to grind against tech forever, and that's the personality he's built up for his career. He's spamming every single media outlet giving his ridiculous takes, always with a surly expression like he doesn't want to be there anymore because he just shit his pants. Certainly, there are elements of truth to what he says--we always have to assess whether the ROI justifies the capex of the buildout. And at some point, the market will probably correct, but if it falls 30% after going up 1000%, I hope he doesn't hurt himself patting himself on the back too hard.
Yeah as people have mentioned I feel like overlap isn't that big of a deal, I wouldn't sell ETFs just because of overlap especially if they are going to be charged capital gains on them. Moving forward it would be good to just be more aware of your overlap (which it sounds like you are) and ensure you're investing in a way that diversifies more (if that's what you want). You can use [turtto.com](http://turtto.com) to view overlap among many ETFs and it would also show how much you have in individual holdings. Like VTI/VOO and QQQ are going to have a lot in NVDA, AAPL, etc already. So maybe you're fine with that but might be worth just investing in ETFs instead of individual stocks as you'll be heavily weighted in the super mega cap stocks anyway. [Here using turtto](https://turtto.com/?tickers=VOO%2CQQQ&timeframe=ytd&graphType=adjclose&alloc=50%2C50&allocMode=percent) you can see that at a 50/50 split in VOO/QQQ (not recommending that) you'll have \~8% in NVDA and \~7% in AAPL.
An outsized amount of earnings are coming from GOOG, AAPL, MSFT, NVDA, etc. These guys could single handedly distort CAPE ratio, if it depends on earnings from the previous 10 yrs.
Supreme Court rules AAPL holds iRan trademark, wars over
Is that an AAPL or a tomato?
AAPL also just made a deal with Klarna to sell iPhones with the pay later model.
AAPL has further to fall, the components for phones are in such short supply, they won’t be able to make a new iPhone for under 1500 bucks and no they are having people finance through klarna for their phones
You shouldn't have to worry about setting it with the trade dont trade super late into the day (past 3pm est) and it shouldn't move that hard before you can set your stop. Some brokers allow you to set stops when placing orders but mine doesn't, so I just do it immediately after. Also sometimes the spreads can be really wide. Let's say youre trading a 10 cent option Since it's such a low price, and the option going to 8 cents would stop you our for example, you may fly right past 8 cents and go into 7 or 6, causing you to lose more then you anticipated off your stop loss. My advice, set stop losses at -20% to -30% on liquid options (SPY, QQQ, NVDA, GOOGL, AAPL ETC) and ensure if you're buying OTM you're only going 1 strike up at thr most. I know the contracts costs more, but you also have less of a risk of getting stopped out lower then you anticipated. Good luck.
AAPL is releasing their new phones on that date or around that and so make sure u sell it before then. Very high chance your return will be massive. In every iphone release, their stock rallies like crazy before and after.
494.62 into AAPL stock and wait 2000 years. you should be retired sometime around 4027
It could honestly go either way, but I'd probably put the odds of AAPL going to 355 lower than it hitting. 52 week high is 344, no earnings until October. It might ride back to 330-340 on the way to its next earnings but what catalyst really propels it above its ATH? Their earnings weren't bad, but Apple itself reported fears of increased memory prices lowering profit margins, and they also missed earnings expectations for Greater China and services. The only catalyst between now and earnings for Apple would be a complete peace deal. I think 355 is a little optimistic, maybe if it was set to expire in October instead, but by September 18th? It would take a monumental pump + peace deal to make it happen.
That’s a pretty crazy statement to say about Apple. General sentiment truly has zero correlation with business success. For AAPL holders. Tim did all the real work. Also, you are in r/stocks ; Zoom out on Apple last 20 years and tell me what you see during Steve and during Tim Also innovation stopped where? AirPods alone massively gaps most businesses in the world.
Calls on $AAPL. The Google Maps integration on my VW Tiguan 2019 using Apple CarPlay is sebastian. The seahorse sarcastically sensational.

I think one reason i dont like Mag7 is they used to have near monopolies in their own lanes. Now they are trying to become AI companies (maybe not AAPL), investing in data center, doing their own chips etc. Competition is going to much more intense which is mean winners and losers.
historical return comparisons are available everywhere yes. The part I was interested was different whether the stock's historical outperformance shows statistical persistence across 5, 10 and 15-year periods. For example, AAPL beat the S&P 500 by about 7 percentage points/year over the 5-year period, but still didn't meet the persistence criteria. That's the part I was interested in.
Damn even for 5mins remaining AAPL 315p trading a .50x1.70 spread lmao
I've never really seen AAPL options spreads this far apart like this. .10-.20 between bid and ask. It's like trading a low liquidity stock.
AAPL up like 4% for the first 6 months of the year MSFT down 23% through the first 6 months GOOG up 13% through the first 6 months AMZN up 4% through the first 6 months META down 16% throigh the first 6 months NVDA up 8% through the first 6 months TSLA down 6% through the first 6 months All while the s&p 500 gained 10% through the first 6 months. So everything except amazon lost to the index and two lost pretty damn big. Thats turned around in the last 6 weeks, but there was a big rotation out of the mag 7 and it didnt cause the market to crash.
some heggie sold AAPL bought MSFT it jumped he dumped
I accidentally bought calls when I meant to do puts on AAPL, fuck my life
