    Eurex Volumes Collapse

    Will AAPL Be the First Tirllion Dollar Company?

    The interesting point about that is if you'd have said in 1999 - "You know what, CSCO could well be 50% lower than here in a few years and then stay very weak for a decade" everyone would have thought you were mad, including possibly yourself. Moral of the story: The unexpected really...

    The APPLE Crash
