Remind me again why the various Apple News sites give anal-cysts any airtime at all? Their collective track records are appalling.
I have no idea why they should be given any interwebs space at all. Useless mind clutter.
But I like where you’re going. Is it even possible to filter out generated news versus real market driven news in the business press? Does the business press even have an incentive to try? It seems not. People seem to like listening to talking heads on TV and reading what opinion makers have to say regardless of their qualifications.
Analysts can have their cake and eat it too. Since they are only offering “advice” and the fine print absolves them of any liability they can’t be sued if you lose your shirt by doing what they say. Short AAPL and it goes up you lose, buy AAPL and it goes down you lose but the analyst who’s advice you took gets to laugh at you and wait for the next sucker to come by.

The suckers get to pay for this advice too. It is a hugely lucrative business. Funny how you can't find anyone to manage a portfolio by risking their own money. "I'll promise a return of x% over y years, and I get to keep anything in excess of this" said no one ever.
This is how wall street works. Various firms start selling their shares at a profit, they then start shorting the stock. Next they call their buddies in the media telling them to write some bullshit stories to put the word out that its a sell, once the stock drops they cover their shorts. Seems very clever to me - the dumb ones are the people who trade after the news comes out - any questions?
Back street research analyst.....name doesnt really matter... downgrades stock.. he also has a buy on Tesla with a 530 target. He was at Bernstein but it is unclear that he covered aapl from there.
Rather than complain about stock manipulation, expect it, and make a plan to profit from it. For me if the stock backs to 190 (which it may based on simple pullback to breakout levels) then I’d be a buyer in some form, like maybe options.
Actually, closer would be nobody buys iPhone anymore cause they’re always sold out coming from nobody goes to that restaurant anymore cause it’s always full

Exactly, follow the smart money and profit from it, it isnt really that hard especially if you have access to the dark pool block trade feeds. For example just this morning goldman sachs traded 2 million shares in the spy. Thats why it went up in price. How much is it worth to you to know for example some wall street firm just traded a block of 500k aapl shares at a certain price?
Damn, you beat me to it. I was trying to think of a good one. That was definitely a "Yogi-ism." I was going to use something like "Nobody is buying iPhones anymore because they're always sold out."
It's always so amusing how analysts can figure out reasons for Apple stock to be devalued. Now it's because the iPhone X is TOO popular. I could have sworn that everyone was claiming that the iPhone X was a sales failure and was going to be discontinued at some point in the near future.
I'm just so glad I never listen to these idiots when it comes to trading Apple stock. They are so friggin' stupid I can't imagine how they keep their jobs.
This may not be related to this particular case, but I have seen it plenty in the past. I'm ignorant to a lot of the laws and rules surrounding trading and the general market, but can someone explain to me why it is ok for analysts to clearly put out false pretense to clearly manipulate stock?
No they are not dumb you are the dumb one getting all judgementsl about it - these guys get paid by wall street to write these articles so that the retail investor moves the stock further in the direction they want to make them money . Its a sound, well trusted and implemented method of making a living. Why don’t you get off you ass and make money to pay for your iphone like i have? You must have been that cry baby who always was whining at nursery school. Grow up!

Yup.
Use other people’s gullibility to make a quick buy on the cheap. Why not? Apple does it all the time.
This kind of ridiculous statements often only happens to Apple. It's doom because X is too popular, it's annoying because X is too fast, it's everywhere because X is too expensive, it's fragile because it's too beautiful, it hurts camera sales because X takes good picture, and so on

Which has me looking forward with glee to what they’ll show me next in about a month.

Because it isn't illegal.
