AAPL Closes At All Time High: $364.92

Dividends are for non growth stocks. Apple is the ultimate growth stock. If they were to pay a dividend, management should be fired for incompetence.

That's why Microsoft is forced to offer dividends. That stock hasn't gone anywhere in 10 years.

Not true. Apple last paid a dividend on 21-Nov-95 according to yahoo finance.

Note: during the period in which their stock was, uh, stable. On the countdown to bankruptcy. Before the return of Steve.

It's simple: look at the asking price, buy some when you like, wait for it to go up, sell. Big profits.

yep. I plan on buying shortly after his death. I do not see it recovering to the point that it was since the Apple fansboys/girls god is dead so his media part will be dead but I do see it recovering.
and by dropping I mean it will be tanking a lot. I would not be shocked in the least to see Apple stock go below 50% of its current value at his death.

does not that seem realistic given their cash/cash equivalent on hand is about $65billion(thats 1/6 or so the stock value). I could see ~25-30% drop but 50%would be crazy and I would buy again.

Wal-Mart - which for many years was a growth stock and some still consider it so - has always offered a dividend. And plenty of other growth stocks offer dividends.

It's very telling of some people who post here who pull facts out of their butts just to prove their opinion vs stating an actual fact.

Im putting in €10000 into apple shares on monday through an online broker, should I put it in before the market opens on monday or wait until after?? Need advice please!!!!

Here's some advice: be very cautious about taking investment advice from a board (like this one). especially with that amt of money.

Just be ready to get out of the way- "buy the rumor sell the news" is about to take effect this week. But with a decent announcement of much desired model upgrades it shouldn't last long.

And yes, taking investment advice from anonymous folks on the internet is a sure fire way to lose money.
