AAPL new target $205

[Trader7793]

Bailed on my AAPL August 135 calls today...got out at 11.10. I was holding way too many contracts...far more than I was comfortable with. Once they went back up from 8.70 and got to 11.10...I had enough. Still made a nice profit from 7.60.

Good luck to everyone else. Since I am no longer long the calls, the odds that it will go up have increased dramatically.

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- Apple Inc.'s iPhone has been on the market less than a month, but Piper Jaffray analyst already Gene Munster believes the potential for the combination iPod and mobile phone is so great that on Friday he raised his price target on Apple's stock, to $205 a share.

Classic pump and dump?

July 24 (Bloomberg) -- Apple Inc. shares fell as much as 5 percent on signs that demand for the new iPhone may fail to meet investors' expectations.

Activations from AT&T Inc., the exclusive carrier for the iPhone, are a ``disappointment,'' Piper Jaffray & Co. analyst Gene Munster said today. Apple probably sold 200,000 of the devices in the quarter that ended in June, he said.

ohh noo look AAPL is up 10% in AH


I guess no pump and dump

I went long at $58 back in Summer 06

I hope that you guys know that the only reason AAPL shot up is because word got out on the street that I had sold my calls. Its a widely acknowledged fact that had I still been in them once earnings came out, the stock would have had bad news and tanked.

The lesson here is to fade my trades and get rich!!

dont get down on yourself man. we all have the same joke when things dont work out. runaway stocks are risky if you do not own them from a level that does not have a chance of seeing again.
