FYI
AAPL earnings this Monday January 27. You have the weekend to think about what to do. I'm thinking of weekly Jan31 calls a few strikes OTM in the $3.00 range, purchased at about 3:30 PM EST on Monday.

It's always a gamble unless you have insider information.

I do have insider information. I was inside the mall today and the Mac Store was packed.
EDIT: Jan31 595.00 Calls at $2.56 look good. Depends on what happens Monday.
Wrong .......... Best Buy was not packed, maybe in the distant past they might have been packed but not now.Yeah, 1 apple store being packed is redundant. Best buy was packed and the stock dived 20% in Q4.
You need more information than that to make a good bet.
Such as:
Icahn is in it.
It's a value play with 14 PE ratio.
It's been up 30%+ in the past 6 months.
Still a gamble.

All noise.
