AAPL Flash-Crashes Over 7%
Did Icahn just cover? Cramer's view: "that's silly" And no - there's no catalyst - this is your most liquid efficient stock market in the world at work...

and close-up
As Nanex shows - the crash stopped perfectly at AAPL's circuit breaker level

Isn't that illegal?
iCrapped
If you you said that chart was for gold, nobody would be surprised.
Something terrible is going to happen. In this game of chess all players know their moves only we the sheeple have no idea
Did AAPL reach half of it's avg daily volume in the first 30 minutes?!
DIE AAPL!!
DIE! DIE! DIE!
Dudes, that's 700.000.000 $ sold within a minute from what I can tell. Even AAPL will feel that. Can't see how you can fault lacking liquidity for that drop in price.
I guess, 0.01%er are mad at 0.001%ers
iShit also stinks.
Chess? Mother fuckers are playing checkers with the financial system like kindergartners on recess.
...on some folks.
the drop itself isnt. that fact that 1 person sold more than 100 shares in a block is illegal. the SEC and FBI are already hunting down that terrorist.
The legality of selling is determined by the effect on the counter-party.
Is the Counter-Party a Bank?
Yes No

Will The Bank Profit? Will it have a positive effect banks profits?
Yes No Yes No

Its Legal Its Illegal Its Legal Its Illegal
LOL I'd upvote you 2x if I could but only Diebold can do that...
1st
and every team gets a trophy.
This is the end

We will stand tall
Face it all together
Plot twist : Iwatch batteries not included.
I was watching the weekly options right as that happened and the 115 puts went from up 50% to up 2000% in a matter of seconds. This market is so unstable that it would not surprise me at all if one of these days in the near future, the S&P closes it's roughly 200 point richness relative to 30 year treasuries in a matter of days.
Possibly hours. Probably shortly after somebody from the Fed opens their big yap.
I recall last year somebody on this board (fonzannoon) predicted 10 year rates to rise from their lows to hit the heady level of 2.75% within a couple of months. Helicopter Ben spoke about "tapering" QE4 at a press conference and we nearly hit 2.75% by the end of the day.
It's still icrap....way over valued even in this insane "market "
It's been overbought since the 20th of October when it gapped to the 101-102 area.
I haven't bought any Apple goods and I'm not going to.

That's cuz Bezos announced an iTunes killer: a micro-usb music delivery drone the size of a dragonfly that flies from Seattle, physically connects to your phone and delivers a tune for 66c
I found that extremely funny!

Sadly, there are likely folks with Fire TV sticks firmly implanted in both ears who think I was being serious :)
.666 Dollars.
FIFY - The Masses want Drama; and the Demagogues and Conspiracy Extremists want Fear ^_^
I read ZH and sometimes learn things I dont think Im supposed to know but Im a brave little soldier.
This chart will be banned and scoured from the internet. It didn't happen. It will be considered Thought Crime to even mention it.
we fucked some folks.....
Made me wet my britches....
We flashed some folks.
Are you sure the iPhone 6 quality issues are not a catalyst?
Didn't they reduce orders last night for some parts? I saw something go by on RanSquawk.
Here it is: http://headlines.ransquawk.com/headlines/apple-aapl-has-started-scaling-...
This market is not driven and manipulated by the algo's. It is a supply and demand driven market which honestly determines the actual relative value of stocks based on their earnings.
Do I need to add a sarc tag to this post?
Blow off top.
And the Dow goes green.....
Everything makes so much sense.
Why not? All it takes is a few BILLION in printed paper and the Dow goes up. Should be down 150 easy today, but it is the favoreite pet of Yellen and BofJ lately.
a 680B stock cant take a 300M order or roughly 1/2000th of its float.... we in a whole lotta shit....
I think what you saw was the test firing of an Algo Rail gun...... would be nice to see an analysis to see what Futures bucket they hit to trigger that.... or a Nanex analysis to see if it was a single block dump and how big....
Surprise surprise, Dow almost green............Zzzzzzz
The POMO team probably crapped their britches for a few seconds there......
Can never hear many callers on their iP6: who says AAPL gives good phone...
Circuit breakers are for sissies.
Central Banks trying to keep the healthiest pig alive and shoveling billions into the Dow to day, but there is no CB intervention right?...
Looks like a CME Gold Chart
Some of those iPhones 5s and 6 have gold tinted paint.
