Yeah...this is an Apple thread, what's your point? I'm defending my bullish position on the stock, backed up with facts and figures, and have been right so far and made a lot of easy money along the way. What's so funny?
I think your inherent need to defend your choice is funny. Why not just continue to count your money? In the markets, there are always two sides to an investment, and sometimes more! Let the sleeping dogs lie!
never once did I say apple stock will not go up and is not bullish! you got your panties twisted
I agree on both counts!
If you're making a killing on your AAPL investment/trading strategies GOB, who cares about the 'anti-AAPL' cult? Share/discuss the information you have and ignore the non-believers that may be interested in just picking arguments; it's that simple & it will be more enjoyable for you and those who read as well.

“Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.”
Just as everyone has the right to attack my opinions, I have the right to defend them. Yes, in terms of making money for myself none of this banter matters to me, but maybe my arguments influence people on the fence. Though a lot of the thread spirals into silly arguments I believe I've provided a wealth of information about AAPL, which if interpreted without bias would have translated into no-brainer buying opportunities for many people here $200 ago. Is it better that I ignore everyone and don't provide that info and analysis?
Rather than ignore I choose to defend and shoot down their arguments (not difficult to do). So what?
If everyone who made money stopped voicing their opinions what kind of community would this turn into? If we acknowledge that there are two sides to an argument and should therefore "let sleeping dogs lie" what exactly is the purpose of a discussion forum? Is it not to discuss those two sides and provide a more compelling argument for the side you're on?
Let's just all stop posting when there are conflicting opinions - great idea!

I for one welcome your defences GOB- you always provide compelling evidence for your arguments in the face of sometimes snarky cynicism.
1. To be fair, I didn't say that at all as I appreciate reading good information.
2. That's just it, not all are mere arguments/debates/differences of opinions, but rather quarrels! Why waste your time with those? What I was saying is that you need to pick your battles so to speak!

The problem is my defense of completely baseless bearish statements are well intentioned, but then I get accused of "getting my panties in a bunch" for defending my views. It's really not me who turns the debate down a useless path. Notice how nobody has commented on the various links to asymco I've posted demonstrating Apple's absolute dominance - the stuff that actually matters? Why do you think that is? If somebody could tear apart those numbers and those trends I would welcome the challenge...
Fact is, if you take the emotion away and look at the fundamentals, there is no compelling bearish argument against the stock in the near to medium term, and with each earnings report it becomes more and more obvious. As long as the same silly arguments are being put forth with no substance I feel it is my duty to share the knowledge that I have and continue to shut them down.
