Or you will personally make up the difference, right?


You bet.:p

There are two conditions. First you have to show that you bought it no later then Monday, May 14.

Second, my limit of reimbursing is only up to 200 shares to the first person who actually shows proof they bought them on Monday.

So if you bought 200 shares at 108 on Monday and come Nov 14 if aapl trades at 120 I don't owe any money. But if it trades at 110 then I will owe that person $2k.;)

But since that person already has $21600 to spend, I would suggest they buy a couple iPhones and a new MacPro 8core and with the rest buy stock.:D
 
Sign here, here, and here.

:)

The recent rise of the stock from 100 to 108 took me by surprise. Someone has taken my advise and is able to accumulate millions of dollars in stock.:) We will see if it continues after Apple announces Leopard and then tells us they have 1 million phones ordered for release June 28.:D
 
This may be one of those classic "buy on the rumor, sell on the news" situations. Clearly the market's expectations are very high. The higher they get, the harder they'll be to fulfill. We shall see.

Well we are not quite 6 months. But aapl just hit 163 in AH trading.

come Dec I think we will hit 180:D

A thread is risen from the dead!

Don't get me wrong, I'm more than pleased. But let's not lead the unsuspecting into believing that anything in the stock market is somehow guaranteed. AAPL did pull a gut-wrenching 20% dump during this time period, you know.

Oh I agree. Nothing is guaranteed. As long as the markets are healthy aapl will reach 180.

I was not happy when aapl hit 111 back in August. We will have corrections, but long term aapl is only going up:cool:
 
No, a nice 24" iMac and a MacBook. That'll do for starters.

As you say, for starters. If you're waiting for my advice, which of course you aren't, cashing in about 20 shares would more than pay for a blowout San Francisco holiday, say, right around the beginning of next January.
 
rumor has it that aapl might split in the near future if it goes over 200.

this may not happen until April of next year.

I for one plan on buying as many as I can afford

Attending SF Macworld would be awesome in Jan. Plan on doing so.:)
 
Tempting timing indeed. :) Last time I was in San Francisco was about 25 years ago: what's the weather like in January?

Can vary quite a bit depending on the timing of the Pacific storms which normally come at that time of year, but I can recall only one year in the last ten when MacWorld was really rained on. Otherwise you can generally count on highs in the 60s and lows around 50. Better than the south of England at that time of year. ;)
 
I want to bring this thread back to life.

I want to remind people that Apple is a sure bet.

We are moving higher and faster then I even envisioned.

Now this that quarter is behind us (4th quarter 2007) it is time for more bold predictions.

Apple will be past 225 by Jan 18, 2008


It will be past $270 a year from now.

And we will hit $675 by mid 2010.

From time to time I will bring this thread up so people who have not invested it can be reminded that it is not too late.
 
Now that's funny. A couple of weeks ago you were agreeing with me that nothing in the stock market comes with a guarantee.

Of course nothing is guaranteed in life. Events can take place that would make these predictions not come to pass.

But there is always a risk when betting the farm on something. But if one invests wisely like aapl, the risk is worth taking.

Apple is a different animal now then it was back in April. Leopard will rock this world and then after 40 million iPhones are sold in 09 around the world watch the 2nd Halo affect kick in.

We have reached the tipping point.

Enjoy this company, its products, and eventually you can even get filthy rich from it.:D
 
Apple's OS releases haven't typically made a major impact on the company's bottom line, and I don't expect Leopard to be any different. This is not what is driving revenue.

The biggest worry I've got now in terms of the future for AAPL is the overall state of the economy and the stock market. Even good issues get dragged down when the markets get a serious case of the yips.
