Buy AAPL January 18th

So here is our logic to being patient. It is threefold:

  • Apple had an enormous amount of call options speculation related to its Summer surge

  • A huge share of this was calls with a strike of around the current price of $550 and higher that expire January 19 2013

  • The institutional money managers that wrote those call options and bought common stock to cover will make a lot of money if a) those options expire worthless, and then b) Apple runs after that expiration date
