    It's below $600 now.

    It's pointless to follow intraday trading unless one is a day trader. If you're a long, sit back and relax.

    Yes and no after taxes 15% capital gains = 2,040,000 million at 2% interest = a take home income of 40,800 per year or 3,400 per month can you live off of that if your house and car are payed for? Or 28,000 shares dividend 1.88 = 52,640 per year (before tax) it is rich if your free time is valuable to you (ie...no boss).

    Keep going AAPL. Become the trillion company within 12 months ....

    If that happens, I win my bet with TS.

    Before I bought the stock late 2012 I wasn't really an Apple fan.  But after buying the stock and doing 'research' at Apple stores I began seeing the advantages of iOS and a closed system.  Since then I bought 2 iPads, 2 Apple TVs, MacMini, and 2 iPhone 5S.

    If I do cash out on some of my shares I'll probably get an iWatch and MacBookAir. 

    All well and good, but bear in mind that the iWatch is currently priceless.

    Hmmm. What would Constipation Odo say?

    Good news. Still not selling some shares until after the split. I spent 6500 for 100 shares back in 2005, pre split. I'm playing with house money now :)

    Constipated Odour? I can't imagine who you're talking about... ????

    Two years ago, I bought about 40 shares total at $535, $585, and $615. Glad I didn't sell when it dropped below $500. Now I just need to figure out the right time to sell.

    When you retire; otherwise, hold.

    For Apple to be a $1.2 trillion dollar company? I couldn't even fathom a guess.

    Sure you could. You're just too chicken.

    Ah well, it was good while it lasted. Apple is doomed. Now excuse me whilst I go and mate with my fellow fruit-fly.

    Aha! Now we know why analysts say random nonsense backed by nothing: Someone dared them and they have a Marty McFly complex.

    Well my post got yanked.  That was a first.

    All I pointed out was that the headline is editorializing.

    Do not delete if you want my unsolicited opinions free of charge lol.

    Maybe it didn't go through, there are no deleted comments in the thread.

    The first thing that comes to my mind is, “He posted from the main website.”

    Yup can't recall how many people ditched Apple stock only to later regret it. 

    I think Bill Gates is the best example. I think he mentioned that was one of the biggest mistakes Microsoft ever made getting rid of their Apple stock which would've been worth many many millions today!
