This is where one size doesn't fit them all.
I have been buying dips since hte share price was less than 10% of the current so nothing but long term massive gains. I'm prepared to continue buying on dips until it doesn't work.
I build wealth, not predictions.

"DOW JONES NEWSWIRES
Apple Inc.'s (AAPL) cost to produce the 32-gigabyte, 4G long-term evolution version of its new third-generation iPad is $375.10, nearly 9% higher than the iPad 2 with 32GB and 3G wireless, according to IHS iSuppli's tear-down analysis of the new tablet.
Though the new iPad is more expensive to produce than the iPad 2, the retail price points are the same, IHS iSuppli noted. "

many wise, strong and smart short term momentum players are loaded with AAPL from $580 area. you are not wrong NOW and I am sure you will get out with a nice profit. but AAPL is buy the rumor and sell the fact from here now for the medium term.

Pretty weak? $45 billion cash used for dividend and share purchases is strong and its also approx 1/2 of their cash to be drawn down. Good Good news. It's my 10 bagger. People have been screaming sell sell sell throughout $100's of upside parabolic.

Apple: a quarterly dividend of $2.65 per share sometime in the fourth quarter of its fiscal 2012, which begins on July 1, 2012.
$10 billion share repurchase program commencing in the Company's fiscal 2013, which begins on September 30, 2012. The repurchase program is expected to be executed over three years.

for a company with $98bln in cash....that's pretty weak.

if you are not capable to apply multi instrument trading strategy then it's better to get sidelined with AAPL. but if you love volatility and able to function under extreme trading conditions, then 2wk straddle is the right action to take now.
starting doing things that were never made before carry risk, AAPL and dividends never happened before.

read all the following, then imagine global recession and tell yourself, global recession and rising stock markets, can be or cannot be. is it simple enough? about gold, check the archives of this place, I was much more than clear about it.
The Dutch labour party says it would veto the fiscal pact if the government persists with the agreed 3% deficit target this year;
the two contestants for the PvdA leadership want a similar deal that Spain has obtained earlier this week;
standoff means that the Dutch government has the choice of either breaking the pact even before it is ratified, or risk a ratification failure;
debate in the Netherlands is most likely to lead to a softer fiscal stance across the eurozone;
the Volkskrant frames the debate about the fiscal target as a “matter of character”;
Spanish banks accounted for almost half of February’s ECB lending;
early elections in North-Rhine Westphalia pose risks for Angela Merkel’s coalition in Berlin;
one of the leaders of Germany’s economics establishment has expressed disillusionment with Merkel’s performance;
 Merkel will, after all, not participate in Nicolas Sarkozy’s campaign meetings;
a French newspaper reports that Jacques Chirac will vote for Francois Hollande;
Hollande’s 75% millionaire tax may be unconstitutional;
the Greek loan programme cleared its final hurdle, with the first payment tranche due this month;
IMF votes to prolong the extended fund facility for Greece;
Olli Rehn causes anger in Ireland over his remark that the Irish should stick to the promissory note deal;
failure to reach agreement on an Irish debt restructuring may have a negative outcome on the upcoming Irish referendum on the fiscal pact;
Wolfgang Munchau, meanwhile, says German economists and commentators have a mistaken interpretation of the global financial crisis.Â

with so many savvy traders here, I am really useless to answer you. you know what I think and market will answer all. some will make money and some will lose, the trades that were going against my market bias and still allowed a bailout without a loss are the ones I am proud most about. no matter which trade you take, just make sure you can bailout of it without a loss. bye for a while :-)

KL, last night during the US session, there were several good trips between 1643 and 1650. I traded that several rounds and I notice that every time I placed a b/e stop limit to the buy order, the price quickly reverse and eat them quickly, which makes me feel that the bankers must be behind these funny biz........
Now time to see, which yen crosses do u like the most?

I am still long gold 2nd ninja long just 1hr ago 1636.7 on that funny business......so naturally I am bias long this few hours.....LOL....knowing my style I am waiting to get out 1/2 near 1644....hopefully not far off and then near 1648.....that is where I think battle of despair will occur... 1648.....BUT
if I see gold jump 10 buck UP suddenly in the next 5 hours....I am a gold bug then.....
1600 or lower can be see anytime.....gold is on down trend ....much as so many gold bug wants to deny it...their LONG term support is under 1500.....good luck if one can buy gold here 1636 on leverage and hold till 1500....even with every $20-30 lower....my Armada account can be wiped & I will be rowing on a plank...!!!....cos...when bears smell blood they return in kind to the bulls..... So hard to comment on public forum because of my distrust of every broker.......how things changes quickly.......
in 5 hours time that funny business of $100 drop can also suddenly occur..........need to be vigilant.....First thing for all newbies is to remove all LIMIT order.......and make sure you see it removed.....not like me(i thought i removed it)......ended up taking some losses.
btw japan crosses also on my radar now....to short of course......
come to mama gold 1644....to take away 1/2 my stress....LOL

Then again I am beginning to trade Apple like Gold these few days.....Options is just for side income, set and forget...right now its behaving like Gold, Silver...
Whoops... sorry to quote you Dil.....I don't pay and I am sharing...oh well....... then I better put a clause "carpein diem"...buyer beware...and iron clad that with a iron condor...LOL...Its a free world after all....so the song goes...gl gt!!!

Dil, regarding AAPL stock price, I cannot disagree with you because I rarely trade the US equities. However, I agree that a company's stock pricing has its stand alone game rule. Cheers mate.
Israel Dil 22:29:59 GMT - 03/14/2012
AAPL entered the medium term correction phase. that's when trading concerned from my point of view.
they have great products but that's no conflict with the company being much overvalued for now. if this trades comes wrong then this forum will find the warriors to attack me, but that makes the game even more fun :-)

I have been using iPads since its first generation, and have been looking forward to the retina resolution on iPad since iPhone 4 was released. My major reading tool is iPad now but have always felt it was not so perfect with just 1024*768 resolution, with which those publications with smaller fonts and refine pictures cannot be displayed fully well.
Apple's success is not only that it has made sexy hardware products but also that it has setup a bunch of industrial ecological value chains. Just look at iTunes music and App stores, where the game rule is very clear and observed while many who are playing benefit.
Whether its sales revenue in China is big or small is not important, or, at least, has little to do with its success.
Israel Dil 22:11:07 GMT - 03/14/2012
publications on 9.7" screens, gimmick and nothing more !
Israel Dil 22:08:51 GMT - 03/14/2012
China represents 15% of AAPL sales for now, for me that means we are entering the GAME OVER phase for AAPL.
maybe wrong with that, just maybe :-)
Israel Dil 22:07:02 GMT - 03/14/2012
Intel had tough years until their israeli R&D developed some great products, also Apple busy with starting R&D center in Israel. That means few tough years for AAPL ahead. but in America everything is possible financially, if jobless people got mortgages for few houses than also AAPL may go to become a trillion dollar company. BUT, my money is not that happening before sub $350 prints.

The resolution of The New iPad, 2048*1536, is the key factor that makes it a revolution. Now we finally have a device where we can read publications with more refiness than those ordinarily papaer-made.
