iCorrection

Tyler Durden's picture




 

AAPL is now down over 10% from its all-time high of $705.07 on 9/21... Will iCorrection become iBear market? Or will Gene Munster come out with some more magical, mystical "channel checks?"

Samsung makes some pretty cool crap.......I should buy some stock in them someday.

 

I will if my AAPL shorts produce some capital for me.

The other Hedge Fund Hotel, PCLN, is eating shit, too. 

Which begs the question...

...Why are the Hedgies raising cash?

Interestingly enough, I just sort of realized I spend much of my day looking at two Samsung monitors - maybe it is time to buy some of their stock if I trust my eyeballs to them.

Trouble is, most zerohedgers are likely bankrupt by now after shorting AAPL since $300. In addition, many ZHers have been demolished this summer after shorting the S&P and buying VIX futures. It is both embarrassing and sad to see Zerohedge readers fantasizing about shorting AAPL for huge profits, when in reality most of them have probably maxed out their credit cards to buy a single put option.

Yeah, who pays back his debts nowadays? Buy a house you can't afford because the central bank wants a stimulated housing market, then squat it since your bank can't afford to seize it in order to keep the market afloat. Money grows on trees.

"I maxed out my credit card to buy gold,silver,guns, and ammo."

Did that years ago already but still have a half a dozen credit cards with no balance on them.  My credit rating is 803.  I will be sure to call every one of the fuckers and ask for a credit line increase just before I intentionally go on a physical PM buying spree and then immediately default.  To hell with trying to trade the "markets", this is a sure thing.

knife catchers will step in around 620ish.  on the next bounce resume shorting. this is heading to 200 dma

DeadFred's picture

My amateur charting shows trend line support at 631 which was demolished by 400K of sales in a minute. Currently 631 is acting as resistance repelling a couple of short term attempts to get back above. The 200 looks like a good target since the next trend line support is way down at 420 (of course many here would go for that level simply because of the number)

SD, I don't think you trade too many options.

Just waiting around for a bounce to add a few March ATM puts to the Dec 675s.

Even the threat of FoxConn contracting with Brazil to make SamPle knockoffs should be worth 100+ mkt pts to the downside, don't you think?

Two weeks ago the iPhone4s was $99 with a two year contract. Now it is free with a two year contract. That is desperation showing up.

There are still millions of iPhone4s out there in store inventory. When they don't sell Apple will have to take them back. If they don't Sprint and T-Mobile are toast after they eat the cost of the phones they bought. Verizon and AT&T won;t be in very good shape either.
