AAPL

Illustrious-Coat3532

I have AAPL dividend reinvestment fractional share since 2020. I sold the whole shares in 2021, and yes, i’m still getting dividends.

Some folks are talking about hedging/shorting, but most retail individuals have no kind of training for it. Switching to VIG will keep you in exposure to AAPL, MSFT, GOOGL, and META. VIG will also have a lot of our favorite guys from VOO like Costco, Visa, and JPM. You will miss out on AMZN, so you could just buy shares of that one. VIG has not done as well holding VOO, but I will also be moving some stuff around if the S&P comittee circumventd their standards for any of these sits. I won't be closing my entire SP5 position, but I won't consider it my core any more. It is becoming more like a highly needs technology fund in my mind.

AAPL calls into the conference is the move Downside risk is limited because they haven't spent any money on AI yet. AAPL held throughout the entire Friday selloff, actually trading as a risk *haven*. Look for AAPL to hit $330 by the conference

hellario

Significantly? No. Replacement cycles have been a thing for a long time and people who buy Apple are stuck in the ecosystem and will replace with apple. For the price guidance to be "significantly" changed, something much more catastrophic needs to happen than - people might delay getting their computers/phones a bit. Under a competent administration, inflation is cyclical. Luckily the dumb orange will be out in a couple of years and the Fed should be able to do it's job and bring down inflation and raise rates. By then, there will be so much macro stress, AAPL will be the least of our problems.

Who knew SpaceX, a private company go to space & return astronauts smoothly. When NASA was cutting down space shuttles, even after big spending many decades Technology adoption not easy, few can see dream & change for all. $MSFT $AAPL $META $GOOG $NVDA $AMZN big monopoly, now AI race to win Economy is digital, no AI win without semiconductor

Material_Key5935

Agree. AAPL way above historical PE and due for a decline.

World was never calm last 100 years, social media nowadays highlights & amplify more. Market digest it and move on. $MSFT $META $NVDA $GOOG $AAPL $AMZN $TSM global tech sector use by whole world, 8.5 Billion population. BigTech combine revenue over 2 Trillion. $QQQ $SPY $SMH

My first stock purchase ever. AAPL in 2005.

I have been an AAPL shares holder for decades and I also have been wishing iOS improving the spell check for years now… no improvement so far….

Oh, I'm not saying AAPL is going to go bankrupt and isnt going to continue making great products hahaha. I'm saying that the 37x multiple could compress quite a bit given core business growth headwinds. Premium multiples are driven by expectations of future growth, and Apple has challenges to overcome if they are to continue delivering growth in the mid teens. Lots of companies have ludicrous valuations right now but they are expecting much more growth. Apple is interesting because it's seen as such a safe haven for capital but there is sneakily a good deal of risk there as well. Also, I'm focusing a lot on iPhone because it's like 70% of hardware and 50% of the total business. Tailwinds to mini won't overcome any drag on iPhone. And Neo has risks to that strategy as well. I doubt it's sustainable

AAPL has decided to sit out the insanity of the AI battles until the tech is more proven and figured out, but holds the gold standard platform that any AI would want to be the primary on. Much like Google Search or Maps. It's what they do. Apple has never chased the cutting edge, they wait for tech to prove out a bit then take a crack at it. Obviously they're not perfect (Vision Pro) but also the first version of a lot of their products have taken a couple versions moment to catch on, and they've probably got a fat margin on the Vision Pro anyway. I was on the fence with Apple for a while but watching how these AI wars are turning out, I think they're actually just saving hundreds of millions/billions in unnecessary capex and AI training effort. Honestly I think MSFT, AAPL, AMZN, GOOG are all solid holds right now. MSFT is the most questionable, but they've got a lot of strength in the cloud and AI could benefit that. AMZN and GOOG both have STRONG internal plays for AI that doesn't require anything outside their internal capex, so even if the bubble pops, I think they've got a road to profitability with their AI directly; Amazon with logistical robotics and delivery, Google with Waymo and Android.

AAPL is a free cash flow giant, and the premium valuation is mostly because of that. Their moat in personal computing is pretty much unbeatable. They’re the only company that own the full stack: best in class chips, OS, accessories, and brand reputation.

aspenextreme03

AAPL is still great and will be for years to come. Buy and hold

SirThaddeusGumdrop

Yes, overvalued. But it won’t get repriced until investors move out of equities in general. If you are an insane person and 100% in equities, AAPL, COST, WMT, V, MA are the last stocks you sell. They ARE the risk-free asset in your insane all-stock world.

BearBearChooey

Never sell AAPL. Just buy. They also benefit indirectly greatly from AI without barring the massive costs others will.

Potential_Salt_5780

How is AAPL more expensive when comparing to other mega tech? They are as much of a software company with 25% of their revenue coming from services and it is the fastest growing segment of their business. Nothing is replacing iPhones any time soon and you need a smartphone to do anything these days. Why should they have a multiple lower than Walmart or Costco?

Successful_Car1670

Just like AAPL issuing bonds at lower rates than it cost them to simply just do share buybacks while sitting on mountains of cash in 2010s

PeteDub

Bought TLSA and AMD in 2015 and 2017 respectively. Both up over 1000%. I’ve sold off a bit of each. Unfortunately I sold a chunk of AMD at like $250 last year 😬. Should have held. But I still have a big position in each. I bought AAPL in 2015 as well. It’s up close to 1000%. I think I have mutual funds I’ve had for 15+ years too

Voltmanderer

It was a long time ago, but I bought 35 shares of AAPL when it was around $3.50/share in the early 2000’s, right before they released the iPod. I forgot about it until 2010, when I sold the lot for 14k and bought a house for my then-wife and twin daughters. I lost the house in the divorce settlement, but it’s still my daughters’ home for most of the week. So, got it, gave it up, still proud of it.

Moist_Chain_POL

AAPL to save the market tomorrow during WWDC or crushing it even further with a new Siri developments letdown? 🤔🤔🤔

CitizenPremier

AAPL went through yesterday with just -1.11. I think their brand name might be properly evaluated; they are basically releasing expensive luxury items and finding customers for it. And I don't know what it would take to get Japan to switch to Android, short of a Japanese embargo (and even then the rich would pay for snuggled iPhones).

booobReviewer

Tesla and Apple are the two I'd flag. TSLA's valuation still prices in a robotics/AI/autonomy dream scenario that keeps getting pushed out. AAPL at 30x+ earnings with single-digit revenue growth is priced for perfection — services revenue is growing but hardware replacement cycles are lengthening. GOOGL and MSFT look the most reasonably priced on forward earnings. AMZN's AWS margins keep expanding so the multiple has support. NVDA's forward P/E is actually dropping as earnings catch up — depends on whether you think AI capex sustains.

OneTwoThreePooAndPee

I might swap MSFT or AAPL for AMZN.

VoidMageZero

Let's see. Really only TSLA imo, maybe AMZN and AAPL a little right now but not much.

Spac55

This week Berkshire invested $10 Billion in $GOOG for AI-expansion Berkshire total $GOOG holding~$26.6Bn It reminds by 2018,when $BRK.B push ~$36Bn stake in $AAPL Also $5Bn each stake in $BAC & $GS, when all worry for GFC $5B stake in $UNH Got $TMHC at $6.8Bn Watch $MU $AVGO possibly next

GermanWarfare

A lot of the AI pivot is from failing companies looking for a financial jumpstart to line their pockets. AAPL is actually in a very good position due to their lack of early onset AI investment.

Much_Candle_942

I didn't understand it well. You mean to say, around end-June (15 days after June 12th), the nasdaq heavyweights like NVDA, AAPL, MSFT etc. will drop? Because the nasdaq linked ETFs need to "make room" for SpaceX. If that happens, naturally most people would jump in on buying calls/stock of these companies. But again, this may not necessarily happen - because weight of SpaceX in the index might just be 2%. What may work better is - covered call on QQQ? Because I doubt if QQQ would run up higher strongly no matter whatever happens with SpaceX.

Candid_Payment_4094

Yeah what 'if'. No one knows. It's a risky asset that can also go to 20k in half a year. If you buy AAPL or GOOGL you know it's not gonna drop by 80% in half a year, and they probably have similar returns. BTC is not dead, but the free money printer is gone.

fenton7

When Megacap stocks get hot everyone does indeed get rich, for awhile, since every retail puke holds NVDA, AAPL, GOOG, etc... Usually ends badly. They keep buying and eventually there's a giant tech wreck. Today is a sneak preview.

polio_vaccine

my brokerage acct is mostly in VOO and some other really random picks like ECL and KDP. i don’t do tech stocks aside from AAPL so maybe that’s why.

SirBilliamWallace

Literally just dividend reinvestment. Purchased May 14th, the date of AAPL’s last dividend. $1-15k purchase.

spez_eats_nazi_ass

AAPL laughing in ability to run free open models quite well locally.

AAPL falling back to earth

Holding AAPL $310 7/2 calls. WWDC looks like it will be promising, but this market dump might hamper any gains

AAPL, BAC a few weeks out look good.

AAPL is finished. Down down down

softboiledjadepotato

I think AAPL will be next to take a dive over the week. Only problem tho is I don't know dick

AAPL and GOOG pillars of my portfolio

AAPL testing its day low

Buffalo-Trace-Simp

The strat is to buy the dip after WWDC. News cycle and sentiment will be that Apple didn't make anything new and kept the status quo. Buy this dip. Because all AAPL needs to do is meet their status quo which are all polished products that ppl will keep on buying.

DoIt4TheMayMays

Welcome to the party AAPL, grab a seat 🟥

Can AAPL go red fuck

AAPL bearish pennant. 70% likely to break down here.

Seems like AAPL is the true SPY hedge after all.

RealPrinceZuko

AAPL just magically green in this

Der_Lachsliebhaber

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.

AAPL is the only green stock. The top is in boys. It’s choppy chop chop from now on just like January. Thank you for your attention to this matter

OhhPeeee

Good lord AAPL, go down already.

TurbodToilet

Just buy AAPL. It’ll be green no matter what

Tall-Illustrator543

AAPL is trash but they will probably reveal some piece of shit tech that's 5 years behind Huawei next week, millennials will lose their minds and wall street will gasp

toomuchmarcaroni

AAPL stop

Tall-Illustrator543

Someone just shelled out some cash to try and protect their AAPL position...not gonna work dawg. It's done

Axe_Raider

if NVDA AAPL and MSFT are priced correctly today, then there is an easy money making opportunity when QQQ funds rebalance there will be roughly $7 billion of buying by funds following QQQ NVDA's market cap is $5400 billion. its daily volume is $35 billion this will be a trivial sale for NVDA, and if you authentically believe it will change NVDA's price then it is a buying opportunity for you i think QQQ is stupid and QQQ-holders deserve what they get, but non-QQQ-holders do not get to whine that someone else is selling their other stock to buy spacex. that just leads to madness. if you get mad when someone else sells a stock you own you are emotionally invested in a bad way

Tall-Illustrator543

AAPL is worthless😭

AAPL is such a fucking stable ass monster man, completely ignores everything around it going to shit and just goes up 😂 so underrated tbh

AAPL the best play I’ve ever made lolllll

zangor

AAPL has been looking strong these past months.

Saffuran

So that is why people should be checking to see if their 401k has NASDAQ allocations for the direct exposure. However, like I said - even if you only own SPY that means you own GOOGL, AAPL, NVDA, MSFT e.t.c. all positions that will likely take hits from the SPCX launch because all of the Q Funds selling will still impact the prices of businesses in the S&P funds.

Iunatic

I see AAPL mooning on my AAPL watch which must mean everything else is dumping

Iunatic

My port of AAPL MSFT ASTS is quite happy today

Shnikes

S&P. If picking individual stocks as “safe bets” more people would do it. If it was a “safe bet” then you would 100% recommend it to every single person you know. I own about 1100 shares of AAPL. Still wouldn’t call it a safe bet. Your analogy is god awful.

RD_006

AAPL?

Saffuran

It absolutely will affect your 401k. 401Ks hold funds and stocks - QQQ and similar NASDAQ funds don't magically get more money to allocate a position for SPCX, they will have to trim/sell positions in GOOGL, NVDA, AAPL, MSFT e.t.c. to make way for SpaceX. So you will end up owning some SpaceX exposure, regardless, once those funds are obligated to begin buying shares. Then if SPCX starts bleeding out as its early holders sell down, your retirement directly becomes part of their exit liquidity.

Opening-Surrounding

A 95% win rate always sounds great, but I'd be careful drawing conclusions from only 20 trades. The bigger question is whether the edge comes from the politician's timing, sector knowledge, or just a strong market environment. Personally, I'd treat this as an interesting signal, not a buy signal. I'd want to look at the full track record, average drawdowns, and how similar disclosures performed across different market conditions before putting money behind it. AAPL is a solid company, but the thesis should still stand on its own beyond who's buying it.

Buy AAPL calls for WWDC on June 8. Stock always seems to pump a lot during it then sell off after event ends

So many stocks pumping over $100 in one month. Can AAPL please be next? Like to $500 by July?

Did you really just ask if anyone's holding AAPL? Yes, obviously. Just about anyone with a brain who buys individual stocks holds Apple.

Yeah, It would have been such a shame to have invested in GOOG, or MSFT, or AMD, or NVDA, or AAPL....I could do this all day....during the dot com "bubble"...such a shame, I feel so bad for those people, all that money made, poor bastards.

Sunkettle

AAPL will either moon or crater because it's between three important levels of resistance

Sunkettle

Damn, I'm doing well without the dumbass PDT restrictions in place. Bought AAPL calls at the bottom, sold them as it hit the VWAP resistance, bought more when it bottomed again. Up a few hundred now, and I made back most of my losses from AVGO 👏
