"Apple stock skids" ... I don't get it.

People's expectations for Apple are set waaaaay to high, imo.

Today's announcements on the hardware were good, for some excellent, especially those wanting a thinner, retina display 15". Their software announcement and teasers were also good.

They're profitable, growing, doing things in hardware never done before.

And then the stock skids and CNBC writes this http://www.cnbc.com/id/47767551.

Makes no sense to me. Maybe people really did bet on a new Apple Television, new iPhone 5, updated MacBook's, Desktops - everything.

Certainly a harsh reaction on the markets. WTF.

Just profit taking, for those that rode the rumours.

Market fluctuations happen for either no reason, three contradictory reasons, or by golly, once in a while a real good reason. It'll go back up with latest Q financials and/or Back to School sales start pumping and/or next iPhone release, whenever that will be.
