Heard thru the grapevine that AAPL will tank hard after earning report tomorrow.

Amazing. Adjusting for the 7/1 split in the middle of this thread (2014), APPL (at about $207 now) would be at $1449 which beats that other high of mid $600 pre split.
GOOG (now Alphabet) however, is at $1226 and if you account for ~2/1 split in 2014, that puts it at almost $2500 adjusted compare to when it was trading pre-2014 at around $800.
I keep spending my money on the wrong things.
I raise my glass to Apple and Steve Jobs. I never thought I would own Apple, but I looked it up one day on a whim, and saw it had a P/E of 11. I just couldn't believe that. So I bought in and didn't even bother to scan the financials. Unfortunately I sold about half when it had about doubled, but I'm hoping things go well enough that my daughter will inherit the rest some day. Ironically I haven't used an apple product since my father had an Apple II+ back in the early 80s.

It is amazing, and congratulations on your gains.
I wouldn't be surprised to see this as pretty much the top for Apple though. They're not really innovating at all anymore, and will be overtaken. I've owned an iPhone for the past 6 years, but just this year decided to go with the Google Pixel. Much better camera, etc.
Looks like the rest of the world is starting to move on as well...

You're calling a top on the share price of apple, forevermore?
Samsung has outsold Apple on phones since 2011, which I think is the year I bought the stock, coincidentally. If not being first has hurt the stock price, no one noticed. I'm not expecting a lot of innovation, honestly. And with a P/E of 18, it doesn't seem the market is either. It has not been a growth stock for quite some time. I don't understand the magic of apple products any more than I understand the magic of Tesla cars, but it is still there, apparently. If they just grow organically they'll at least match inflation. Throw in a hit here or there, and things only get better. Flops might change my mind.
BTW, I can attest to the fact that Huawei makes a great phone.
But I won't use it with a sim card or with any sensitive data.
