AAPL approaching 52wk low. Fuck. So tempting to get in on calls but they’ve fucked me over so bad in the last month.
Just loaded up on AAPL shares
1. No rate cuts until 2025 2. Israel wants US missiles 3. Ukraine wants more billions 4. Mortgage rates going back to 8% 5. AAPL down 25% this year Bullish.
AAPL not even trying to go up anymore. 
This is brutal!!! AAPL lower than 12m ago!
SPY 450 only a matter of time, just like AAPL 130.
AAPL beat down for cheap calls.
AAPL sus at 165. Possible eod $170
People who think AAPL will never touch 130 again are naive.
Everything bleeding, I buy AAPL puts and it’s bouncing  inverse me for free money
5.7k gain in quick scalps in $AAPL and $SMCI. I tried heavily for $DJT puts in the morning but prices never hit my limit orders even though I was overpaying for them. IV way too high [https://i.imgur.com/l3Ya9MI.png](https://i.imgur.com/l3Ya9MI.png)
How is SPY not in the gutter. AAPL down 1% NVDA down 3%
oh, so AAPL is incapable of have more than 1 green day. I see now
The local greek palm-reader on Bloomberg said that based on support at $160, AAPL either gains to 180 or drills to 100 soon after earnings. So I just bought 5k worth of puts at 150, 140, 130, 120, 110, and 100 with a 5/17 expiry. Let's hope the greek weatherwoman is right, you can always put your faith in Lisa Abramowicz
THEY R BEATING UP MY AAPL 
Come on AAPL. You are embarrassing yourself.
AAPL seriously! 
AAPL is definitely not a buy. At maximum hold.

Recently hit $5.4MM net worth and got a phone call from the 1% club, they're giving me 10000 AAPL shares as a welcome present and apparently I will be dating Selena Gomez this summer oh and also the architects have declared that today will be yuge green
I am so disappointed in AAPL's lack of true innovation since we lost Steve Jobs. I'm certainly going to keep updating my iPhone and renewing my iCloud, but to realize that Apple hasn't done anything that's really meaningful (Apple Vision could be argued, but it hasn't driven change like they had hoped). They really dropped the ball with Siri—everyone has Alexa devices in their homes and cars—and that won't change unless something wild happens. What is really telling, however, is that they are losing out on academia. At one point school aged kids would use iMacs and learn the Apple ecosystem. Now? It's Google Chrome Books... kids aren't learning the ecosystem. Sure, they have iPhones and Watches, but unless Apple can really figure out how to innovate again, I see no reason to believe in them. Yes, having more cash than God is good for investor confidence, but when fanboys start to lose hope, that's the slide. Puts on Apple while Tim Cook is at the helm.
We analyst been downgrading AAPL 
Buy the NFLX dip. Same shit happened with AAPL stopping iPhone sales reporting, then doubled its SP.
AAPL carry all market 
Question on wash sales with CSPs. Let's say last week I sold a put with a strike of 170$ for AAPL that expires today Friday. I want to realize the loss for tax purposes so I buy back the put for a higher price. But, I still want to own shares of AAPL so I buy a 100 shares outright. Does this trigger a wash sale for the money I lost on option premiums?
AAPL is almost certainly going to 150.
AAPL stopped reporting iPhone numbers sold in 2018. Some guys thought it was fishy and sold their shares…
Tim can you Cook and announce AAPL is buying Israel or something please
An honest question, why will they go down and a lot won’t be recovered? I don’t understand this because when i see historical values of AAPL TSLA and AMZN stocks from 10/20 years ago until today, they all went up. Small dips in between but they all went up. I mean isn’t this how people who bought NVIDIA got lucky? As long as we buy stocks from companies we have faith will only grow with time and we just sit the money there, we will gain profit, no?
I only just started fucking with SPY. I’ve lost money on calls and puts over the past year on multiple tickers. I’m still down overall too lol. It’s just that in the past week I’ve remade all that I’ve lost in the past two months solely with spy puts. The money I’ve lost over the past two months is from AAPL and SAVE mostly. And dear god look at SPY. The market has an outage and spy almost hit $490. Oh lord im bout to bust if this holds through morning if Theta doesn’t kill me. Estimated return was 450% for a bit.
Everything is still moving on my end, NVDA, AAPL, TSLA etc

Someone who actually has a clue. Those cutting edge nodes ie 3nm are manufactured by 2 companies Samsung and TSM and TSM has 90% of that market yet they are essential to all advanced electronics include AI chips; the AAPL iPhone 15’s GPU is a 3nm. Intels slow to the party but they are close to being the 3rd. Their saving grace is they are domestically owned and the Chips Act will treat them with higher priority which further cushions the R&D required to innovate. Cutting edge fabs and the development of the chips exponentially more expensive than less advanced nodes. They’ve suffered financial to stay competitive long term their labor is now coming to fruition. Their current financials are not great obviously so intrinsic value is not a viable measure considering the underlying story. Intel published a photo of them unboxing the ASML lithography machine back in January which btw is a $600 million investment. Reading Gelsingers comments and earnings calls, it is clear the next few years are the target years for turning the corner. The payout if they are successful is substantial. So intel is a growth play and a gamble however the potential to become a US domestic cutting edge node manufacturer during the cusp of the AI era justify the risk.
AAPL will pull a DJT tomorrow and go up almost $7
Simple. I bought $AAPL, $MSFT and $GOOG on April 15th. I tend to buy at the ATH and beckon the multi-year slump.
AAPL quadrupled after stopping sharing how many iPhones they shipped per quarter…yeah I know they are down lately but I’ll take a NFLX 4x and then 15% drop over the next 5 yrs
where are the AAPL bulls that came out of the woodworks last week during that fake pump? show yourselves

I see the graphs from Friday🔮…AAPL tickling the taint of $190… DJT cliff dives and forgets parachute..$5… New Gold mine in Trumps asshole…GLD to $230…
Could be hedges in a portfolio or overall strategy, frankly you can't really learn much from singular positions unless they're ultra concentrated/huge (like Warren Buffett's holding of AAPL)
The EU common charger regulation was designed around reducing electronic waste and wasn’t even directed at Apple. But anyway, what kind of a dance are trying to do here? Your points have essentially been: - iOS is undifferentiated from Android (I provided just a tiny list of the many reasons why your opinion is factually incorrect, but you don’t wanna dance on that 🦗) - Apple’s success is due to it being a “walled garden” and that the approach is a distinctively Apple issue because it’s “ridiculous” or “fundamentally incompatible” to build a walled garden around open source software (even though Google has already been found guilty of this) So what’s your point here? Should we all short AAPL because without the lightning cable Apple won’t sell iPhones? Or if Apple is forced to turn iMessages blue, allow Huawei users to use FaceTime then iPhone reasons will be free at last and run to the exits? Your strongest argument might have been a drop in services revenue due to App Store changes, but according to you it’s not about App Store.
The main issue with people stock picking comes down to when people say things like this: > The same people that preach efficient market theory will turn around and say how overvalued something is. Thankfully Fama is alive so he doesn't have to roll in his grave over this but the majority of people who talk about markets have no idea what they are talking about. This is a horrible understanding of EMH (hypothesis, not theory) and actually kind of proves why EMH is important to begin with. Can things be over or undervalued in EMH? Yes. Individually. Can the whole market be overvalued? No. [To explain would take a paper. ](https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1540-6261.1991.tb04636.x) But my major point is that the whole thing is a sham upfront because people actually don't even go through step 1: Deciding *why* they are investing. For instance the reason why you go with the Boglehead approach as an individual investor is primarily because there's no value to the time risk you have to take for the long-run holds. To be clear in the late 90s you could have, if you randomly bought some stock, chosen AAPL with odds of about 1/3,000 iirc. Today we say, "Shoulda bought that AAPL", but AAPL wasn't even a darling for many years after it went public and honestly it would have been easy to mistake it for a stinker, it grew suddenly, sharply, and kind of with a weird cultural lockstep that you could not predict. If you intend to hold for 40 years whatever you buy, looking historically at random, most companies actually don't survive that long. So then we have the question: "How do I solve that?" The answer: "Indexing." That's the answer. They do the job of keeping you exposed to the winners who keep winning even though someday our winners won't be winning. No one could imagine Sears being gone but Sears is gone. Most companies will do this overnight; they were big brain brilliant and then we retroactively explain why they disappeared. So, ultimately, if you want to play the time risk game you play with an index. Simple. If you're thinking short-term, a market cycle for instance, go for it with your SHOP and TSLA and INTC etc. because yes, those things are happening right now, and those things are profitable today, and someday they won't be but you won't be in them 40 years with a shocked Pikachu face. I mean you're talking about tech stocks in the way Benjamin Graham talked about brickmakers. That's silly. The whole goal was to assess the usefulness of the business as a long-term investment with real-time prospects related to *real goods* which of course at the time was all that existed really. There were no digital goods. MSFT got lucky they were the only thing around for IBM to play with and launched across the planet, but that luck should not be mistaken for brilliance, you've no idea who is going to win or lose esp. since IBM *lost* which is weird because IBM is who created MSFT's empire. Anyway, my point is simple: Most people fail at investing primarily because they never figure out what they are going to actually do with the money. They just throw it in. And if you are going to just throw it in you should use a series of low cost index funds, but stock picking isn't bad, so much as it is people who try to do so often aren't versed in how it actually works saying things like the EMT.
If NVDA overtakes AAPL's market cap next month, that's would be great.
Imagine not buying AAPL calls before earnings 
If you want to add now, just buy QQQ. If you're looking for individual names keep an eye out during earnings the next few weeks. There should be some opportunities with this rate tantrum going on. AAPL is getting into a more reasonable spot if you're looking to buy like right now.
Loading up on calls for AAPL earnings cause I’m a Tim Apple believer
After some thought I've bought a bunch of AAPL 5/10cs. It's sort of insane to do in this market, but if this storm passes these things are going to pick up a shitload of IV
Remember a couple of days ago, when everyone thought AAPL would be 200 by earnings
time for AAPL calls?
AAPL back to April 2023
Honestly AAPL is probably a buy at this price.
I am developing a hatred for AAPL
Fun fact, if you bought AAPL stock 2 years ago, you would have made no profit and lost value due to inflation.
Is it possible for AAPL to go to zero 0️⃣ 
im about to throw 6k in AAPL 200c expiring in March 2025, thoughts???
Who on WSB fell for the fake $AAPL Thurs - Fri pump
what A fucked up market AAPL down and DJT UP .. cRaZy
Just realized AAPL is basically flat over the past 52 weeks...wow.
AAPL KILLING MY SPY SHID 
The extrinsic value drops off once ITM and there will be less and less as the option goes deeper ITM. A quick example is a43 dte 170 put on AAPL that is slightly ITM and has about $4.19 of extrinsic value. Moving ITM to the 190 strike the extrinsic value drops to about .60. Going even deeper ITM to the 205 strike the extrinsic value drops to .05 or lower. As you can see, once the put goes so far ITM the extrinsic value drops off which will result in not being able to roll for any credit or being even as you are suggesting. If the option is ATM or slightly ITM then rolling can work, but once ITM the premiums will drop off and you won't be able to roll how you think. You are encouraged to paper trade to see how this works. If rolling indefinitely were possible then no one would even need to be assigned or take a loss, but as you will find out this is not possible based on how the stock moves.
Jesus Christ, it’s time AAPL says ✨AI✨
Tim AAPL getting fucked. Didn't realize it formed a death cross in March lol
AAPL bout to break that 52 week low 
Need another Ai news for AAPL 
Why the fuck did I get back into AAPL. God damn it.
Can AAPL stop fking around and go up? Just bought some calls 
AAPL is fucked. They kept a lid on it today during the rally.
AAPL gonna make a comeback or are my calls gonna fuck me like TSM?
Almost the whole market is green minus the two things I’m holding. MSFT and AAPL. Feels personal at this point. Give me one fucking greed day. Sick of -5% port day after day
Hi OP. I am in the camp that believes that a 100% uptake of "VOO and chill" spells disaster for capital markets. The Bogleheads aren't wrong in saying that 95% of active fund managers have not beat a simple index fund in the past, but I think that statistic doesn't hold a lot of water when you consider that the methodology of chasing market cap to determine what stocks to buy/hold in an underlying fund IS also an active investment strategy. So, might as well say that 99.99% of people didn't beat AAPL since it IPOed or didn't beat NVDA in the last year. There is some serious envy going on around these parts when one tries to compare individual stock picking to some other strategy.
RIP TSLA & AAPL 
if you bought AAPL in 2020 during the Corona dip, you would outperform SPY by more than 60%. What you wrote though is 100% correct and valid. Perhaps the key to individual stock picking for the retail investor is buy the major macro corrections?
Green  on AAPL
AAPL -> cut to hold $160 (J.P Morgan) lost market share in Asia and rising competition for phones
AAPL downgraded by J.P Morgan 
both AAPL and TSLA are below their 200 day moving averages, SPY below 50 day moving average probably not a good time to buy calls
AAPL please you are my light of hope 
AAPL under 168 is a buy all day.
