Its interesting to see the appearance of all the 'I-told-you-sos". Funny, they weren't posting yesterday. The only "I-told-you-so" in this cheerleading thread is me, and I did post yesterday. My advice? Don't buy until (at least) Monday and take a minute to analyze the news and see what changed. Considering the pounding that AAPL just took, all but the most rabid cheerleaders would find the advice above quite measured...

Steve Jobs is a schmuck. What a rally killer. We may have had another big move up today. He gave no guidance beforehand, none, not a clue and then he hits us with a bomb. On top of that he refuses to hold a conference, or comment further. Won't answer any questions. The Street did not like that at all. Apple deserves to be where it is. $1800 for a painted box doesn't cut it anymore.

The BS about AAPL's demise… Oh yes, AAPL is incompatible, that is why is suffering now. IF only they were compatible… fool.com We are going to have a few months of this pronouncements by people that have no idea what AAPL's business model is. The same old tiresome myths. I want to hear smart analysis, please. The best I can come up with is that AAPL simply does NOT sale well during the summer and that interest rates are making people nervous about what are more or less superfluous purchases. AAPL was doing well while the economy was moving full steam ahead, and CPQ and DELL were stagnating. Clearly this is NOT about compatibility (same old, same old). It is about selling at the right time. AAPL upgraded the whole line at the worst time possible, betting the ranch on success. Still, AAPL value is there, but it will take time for confidence to re-build. Fear of history has made most people (institutions for the most part) dump this early. Fred and SJ are going to start to make a few friends in Wall Street if they want the stock to go up.

Here is another I told you so Dan: "To: Dan Fleuris who wrote (28562) From: High Grader Thursday, Aug 3, 2000 1:28 PM ET Reply # of 28973 Let's try 29.29 time Sept 19th 20th. (of course that is according to the Elliott Wave Principle.)" Having stuck my neck out(again),I decided not to post here until the end of September. I was a little early and a little high with time and price. Between Aug. 3rd and Sept 29th the Elliott Wave Principle caught the wave B top on Sept 25th at 64.125 having given a target area of 63.82 to 66.95. Elliott Wave then re-affirmed the bearish market and once more put 29.29 and an even lower target (that I couldn't believe) on the radar for late September. The wave structure is now focusing in on some very interesting possibilities for Apple. Including the same one, as back on August 3rd that I thought was too low then but am now inclined to believe. Not an exact science Dan, but I didn't hear anyone else saying Apple would be below 29 late in September when it was at 48 and heading up in a rally. I suggest you go buy lots of Apple Dan. But not yet:-)
