Apple, APPL, long
My wife and I just purchased our first Apple product. Two, I phones, and another one for a granddaughter, so we have happily added a ton of money to their bottom line last week.
If they report I Phone sales for the Thanksgiving period sometime this week, the stock has to roll past $650 this week.

Value Buy, ..........recheck your symbol. Most everyone also gets it wrong.
It's AAPL not APPL. I've gotten it wrong many times.

Mod,...... yep, it does look like I might have a winning week; but my horse (VISN) might be very superticious, and not want to run fast; today is Friday, the 13th.

Congratulations, architecto, your horse really picked up ground today, guess Friday the 13th was your day! Good Win!  And, to D.I. for the Show. Was surprised to come in with a Place finish this week, the last two days were positive.
