    Freakout made out on GOOG today, that's for sure.
    Prime example today about investor skittishness with AAPL.

    AAPL reported:
    33% increase in quarterly sales
    38% increase in earnings
    profit margin widening
    continued share buybacks
    cash of over $200 billion

    AAPL currently trades at 14.4 x 2015 earnings estimates, S&P average is 17.9.

    These scream for a higher share price, yet AAPL is down nearly $7.00 (5%+)

    LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?

    I don't know about the US but in Europe the % of girls playing soccer that also love girls (possibly playing soccer) is pretty high.

    Sure seems like a significant buying opportunity for AAPL. Price drop makes absolutely no sense to me. I sold some of what I owned after I wrote above that I had too much. Now, I think I might buy more. Sure seems like there should be 10-15% to gain relatively quickly.

    I think it will bottom around 110 and shoot back up to 150ish. I am long NFLX, GOOG, and TSLA right now. Getting ready to buy some AAPL. I am making more money in the market these days than I do at my job. It is a great time for tech investors!

    Good time to buy Apple...easy money.

    I still think you can get it cheaper if you hold out a few weeks. Either way, I agree, super easy money.

  15. #3555
    You guys convinced me to buy back in. Damnit! I think I could have earned a few more % by waiting but oh well.

    It is rare that you will either buy at the absolute low or sell at the absolute high. Worrying about a few percentage points at either end is an act of needless self-torture.

    I am glad I bought back in yesterday 'cause I sold about 50K of TSLA to do it and my remaining TSLA got hammered today! That worked out well.

    Was there negative news on TSLA? I see it is still falling today.

    My car (2007 Saturn Vue) w/ 180K miles on it took a dump this weekend. Check engine light on, 23 error codes from the computer, etc. All around not good. Car sounds like shit.

    Every cylinder is misfiring, so it seems like it needs every cylinder adjusted versus just spark plugs or something like that. The plugs aren't even that old, maybe 70K miles?

    I am eyeing up these used cars. Does anyone have any experience w/ these vehicles? Selfishly, I want the Explorer based on looks and size. It looks bad ass and is bigger than the Highlander. I know deep down that the Highlander is the better value and likely will have fewer issues, though.

    Which of these would you lean towards based on the info below?

    2014 Ford Explorer - 35000 Miles - Price $30000 - KBB $31827
