I lived through the 1980s and 1990s market-mania craziness and the movie Wall Street greed is good period; and the NAZ bubble burst and the R/E bubble pop.

So I guess it's nuts for me to ask such ridiculous questions since I am sure there are many on here who can give a thousand rationalizations why AAPL gapped to hit 570 and since then won't stop climbing higher!I obviously sold my 580 and 590c waaayyyy too soon, even though I have bought other strikes since. But I sold into spreads and the upper strike has long since been exceeded.

But then I rely on logic and sanity to live life every day. Same does not apply in the markets!

I guess 8.3 % unemployment is the new 3.3% unemployment and Europe in the crapper is a time to buy on bad news.

Thanks goodness I have a day job so I don't have to figure out the nutcake hedge fund scumbags who manipulate these markets/stocks - LOL

Just curious

You missed the mini ipad 7" hype as well.


apple could come out with a new product once a week and fools would be standing in line to buy it.

==========
IceM;
Actually $577 area was [and is]quite logical sell/longs;
APRIL monthly candle close And market still has not taken out that month close/month high

So no- dont sweat the small stuff;
PE is still quite reasonable, but its a lower probabilityuptrend ...now.Plenty of logic in market, not that its all logic-they over shoot the upside & downside.

Its hard to stop a train;
its hard to stop a Trane, its hard to stop a trend.[10 year/25 year candlecharts/monthly.
Wisdom is profitable to direct

Every single Dip/Pullback/Correction/Bull Flag on this 3 year AAPL chart was a buying opportunity.
And I bet every single time it felt horrible!

Full Stop.
