Now you know why legend Warren Buffet bought Apple stock when dipped around $92 and when the smartest analysts on wall-street and rest of world was convinced Apple is doomed. Now Warren is smiling and rest who believed others crying.

Having been in since $50 pre-split, I was literally walking in to work when the ticker showed this and bought every share I could.  The stock purchase mobile app locked up twice and was moving really slow from the traffic and seemed to not get the order placed.  After checking the execution status of the order I did find that it did in fact get placed.  The stock was so completely oversold at that point you had to be a fool not to buy if you had any non-essential money to purchase with.  Rear view mirrors have the best view obviously but that one you could see as it was happening.

where is Collin Gillis and his $85 price target?

Check the nearest high rise building to his location.  Look towards the roof.

As an investor, patience has always been key with Apple.  Having said that, your patience definitely does get tested.  This formed the handle on the cup at around $120.  That was a bullish sign and it got the attention of big money.  I had said on these forums that Apple would beat in sales on the iPhone 7 and the Mac.  I'm not a prophet, but I do know demand when I see it.  This should continue on a general upward trend throughout the year with iPhone X/8 on the horizon, although the occasional pullback will be healthy for price stability.  Of course this also depends on which direction big money decides to take the stock market as a whole with more volatility being a factor.  Long and strong.  Go Apple.

My blink from watching it on shark tank was the owner was pompous and arrogant and had all the answers to the shark's questions.  They are usually good about reading through somebody but in this case they failed.  They did an update to that show and they were already busily working on "other products" (the Mint as mentioned in the article).  It's almost like they knew they better get going off of the Breeze.  They need to focus on paying people back now.  Brush your teeth, see a dentist, and chew gum - there's your alternative to buying a Mint that probably won't work either.  These gizmos for every little thing under the sun are getting past the point of useful.  It's ridiculous.

Gotta love Barclays downgrade of AAPL today.  That is sarcasm.  Any time Apple gets some gumption they are hit with an analyst downgrade.  It has been happening for two years.  I know it is an opportunity for their clients to get in lower, but it does get old.  I still say Apple surprises to the upside on iPhone 7 and Macbook sales on Jan 31.  iPhone 8 interest is ramping up.  It looks like AAPL may be shaking off the downgrade which is a sign of strength, as AAPL has been shaking off multiple downgrades here lately and moving up regardless.  Long Apple.
