whats with the aapl stock drop

[Unspeaked]

The volatility/manipulation thing that's been mentioned really ties into the point I was trying to make, as well - no company's stock, no matter how secure, is risk proof.

Apple in particular swings a lot for something with such a large market cap, even though the overall trend is up.

Part of owning apple stock, however, is not about making money. It's about owning a piece of a company whose products you enjoy and whose innovation you want to support.

That has *always* been a really good strategy; buy what you know, like and use!

It is, but that's not really what he said. If I want to "support" Apple, I buy their products. Buying the stock is about making money.

nice bump today! Lots of volatility here for sure. Maybe it'll be the beginning of an up trend in the stock...
