It was obvious earnings were going to be weaker, iphone sales are going to slow due to the iphone 5 and new competition. This was simple. Ipad sales were a bit stronger, but most of of the revenue apple grabs is from iphone sales.

Remember companies do not stay on top forever and that includes apple.

Shouldn't a miss of this magnitude have been prereported? They must have known for weeks.

Serious loss of credibility here.

It was on the wires, ad nauseam. Who's going to underwrite the short if the reaction had somehow been positive?

Of course they knew for weeks, however you are speaking about apple, if this news came out weeks ago it would have pushed down the markets probably 2% the day of the announcement. There is so much going on for apple that this miss is pretty big. Of course analysts will say tomorrow that this is a "buying" opportunity. So this will all be forgotten by Thursday. Stock will probably be $585+ by the end of the week.
 
who was the genius who "saw" a so-called "cup and handle" - which if my memory serves me correctly from my CME classes that is a bullish pattern!

LOL - too funny
 
Quote from cactiman:

80-90% of the time AAPL goes up after earnings, and this super 3 yr. uptrend has a textbook Cup with Handle right at the top.
My reading: Odds strongly in favor of more Upside.
Certainly see no reason to close the August 600/595 Bull Put Spread I opened back in March.
Good Luck! to everyone with their trades.

brilliant
