Of course it was part trolling for my own comedy; HOWEVER, i do firmly believe you should not buy a company that increases profits via exploiting kids in China/Taiwan. If i started a company and then exploited your kid(s), would you talk about buying shares on every dip? Some of these kids kill themselves as apple makes tons of money. Of course a lot of other companies do this. You give me a list, and I won't buy them either. But go ahead, act like it doesn't happen since you don't see it. i'm sure more democrats like supporting apple. lol.
I appreciate your concern for AAPL workers at Foxconn, etc. For my part, I wrote AAPL about it when the news first hit earlier this year. I told AAPL they were the leaders in the industry, and should set an example. Tim Cook wrote back thanking me for the suggestion, and said they would start doing things about it. Which they did. I also won't buy Cigarette Companies like MO and PM, though there's money to be made there. But I'm only 1 "fellow traveler to the grave" and can't change the world. We tried back in the 60's, but to no avail. You probably shouldn't be involved in the stock market, if these things affect you that much. The Market is a very cold, hard place, with only one aim - to make money. Go into some kind of social work or something. Find an area that suits your personal psychology, so you can be happy during your short time above ground. Because we'll all be gone soon enough.....
Added a bit more to my AAPL position this morning at 626.32. Figuring the bottom for this latest Bull Flag is in at 609.62, a total pullback of -13.54% from 705.07. Mr. Market will tell us what he thinks soon enough.
This is big week for us AAPL "Longers". We'll see where we are on Friday.... Will it be ?? or will it be ??
Have January, February, and April Bull Put Spreads opened at the moment. Strikes range from 635/630 to 700/695.
