Motley Fool declares Apple stock of 2008

I hate Apple right now. 159.79!!?! What the heck happened.... it dropped 40 points in 2 weeks!

i bought roughly about $90,000 worth of shares years and years ago when i believe the stock sold for about $24 so i have around 4000 shares and I'm still holding on! smartest move i ever made i can retire 20 years earlier thanks to apple hahah

Have held AAPL since the early '90s. Would like to hear Steve-o announce a 4:1 stock split at MW. If so, stand back and watch the fireworks!

I bought in April of 2007 a few months after I bought my first Mac. I really liked my new Mac and the recent purchase of an iPod made the choice to invest an easy one.

I just cashed in on my remaining apple stock. I learned from Cramer that the trick is to not be too greedy.

I bought in when it was $18/share and have reaped sweet rewards through the split and up to this all-time high. I am a loyal and happy Apple customer.

I had stock and sold it all just before xmas as it looks as though the US stock market is on its way down!

When the mainstream trys to get on the boat, I think it may well sink it. I invested heavily in Apple the day I read that Microsoft had won the operation system war; it was the right move. The history of the world is such that whatever is up must come down (Rome, Britain, possibly soon the United States). When motley 'fools' start ASSUMING that Apple will go through the ceiling, after it has already done so countless times, I'm getting scared, and think it might be time to get out. Any others who agree?

As for the Good Doctor, apple stock usually appreciates up to a day or so before Macworld, then drops no matter what Steve says. It even dropped after the iphone announcement. It then takes a few months to recover.

Good hunting...

I bought AAPL when it was $18/share. Reason? I like the OS much better than PC's. A big gamble back then but I believed on the product. That's what I based the purchase on... I bought some more when Apple announced the advent of the iPhone a year ago. As of 2008? No one knows, but I'm glad I got on this train early enough! I have a feeling it's not too late for some......

I'm 16, work at an Apple Store and put most of what I make into AAPL. Through an Employee Stock Purchasing program, on December 28th, I bought 4 shares at about $100. I started buying apple stock when I was about 14 and now I have 79 shares. And by the way, now I make about 3x more with my apple stocks than I do working for them (and I even get paid quite handsomely)

Just got into apple a couple of weeks ago. How does it historically do during the MacWorld time? Should I sell it now or wait???
