When I saw it was down to $580 yesterday I thought about picking up some shares, but stayed in lab until 4 am and by the time I woke up today it was back to $600.

Wait wait wait..."CNN 12 month Forecast" is an actual thing? I thought you were kidding.

It's pretty damn amazing that ~$20B is exchanged daily on just AAPL stock. So about 250 trading days per year, so a 5 trillion dollars in trades on just aapl stock will happen this year.
ETA: as a comparison, XOM trades about $1.2B daily.

Dunno where you got that from. I found it mindblowing and got a much smaller number doing some quick and dirty on CapIQ and got an average of roughly $5B since 2008. XOM @ $2B, so still much higher for sure, but not quite that ridiculous.

I sold off some random stuff earlier and had some money sitting in my cash ready to buy at a good opportunity. Unfortunately days earlier I had moved the money to my bank to piss it away on a 28 year old sports car. With my luck the car will end up being a POS.

Could this be because of the class action lawsuit against Apple ? Just throwing it out there.

Well you said daily, and you just happened to use today, which is way higher than its been historically. If you had just said "today," that would have been different. I'm not nit-picking you bro, I'm just pointing out that its gone up a lot recently and in particular today. But if you don't find trends and perspective to be relevant than by all means just focus on one day and ignore my post.

It's been around $600 for about a month now and I was using the average volume for that period. Today it was actually about $22B.
Either way it seems like a ton of money trading hands.

He leads off calling out the AAPL fanbois.
Then the "negative" guy says it might go to $1000 before the big selloff.

You never know how long irrationality will last.
A lot of guys who shorted the housing market starting in 2005 ended up going broke because they didn't think that the market could be so irrational for so long.

The market is terribly inefficient. Technology has excasubated the emotional knee jerk reaction to any news.
It's hard to hang in short positions for long, cause the amount of money you can loose is limitless. At least you have 0 as your down side protection for a long position.

Yeah but what's the chance of the stock going up over 100%? Especially without you being able to get out of the trade before then

$550 might be in play today

Wow - heck of an ER, esp. given that the North America numbers were down. And Asia is just getting cranked up...
