Moments ago we got the answer: just after 11:04 am Eastern.
Just bought $500 mln more $AAPL [7] shares. My buying seems to be going neck-and-neck with Apple's buyback program, but hope they win that race.

No mention of AAPL being a "no-brainer" buy here, the way it was at $560. What's worse for the billionaire twitter is that the half life impact of his tweets is now just under 5 minutes.
