As of market close today, my AAPL shares are up slightly more than 1,000%











Too bad I don't have a lot of shares.

I read where it's going to 200.

I've sold some, bought on a dip, sold some more, bought on a dip, and am now holding...

My portfolio currently shows up 102%, but with the sells and buys, I'm up probably 5 times that.

Unfortunately, like Lux, I have only a few shares (double digits).
The heart was willing, but the wallet was poor.

Still, up 102% is darn nice! (well, again, probably more like 500% if I sat down and figured in my buys and sells...).

I only have a "few" shares as well.
I had the dough, but no heart.
Mostly just invested for the "fun" of it.
Man is it ever fun.

I on the other hand sold 1400 shares of Apple at $15.xx to buy into Sun Micro at $16.xx and now I got a big steaming pile of SUNW at $5.37! Anyone want me to manage their portfolio??? Hmmmm....do ya?? I didn't think so...gdamn poor stupid suminabitch. But i wouldn't feel right if i didn't pay more than my fair share.

jack, at least you have a sense of humor about it.

Hey, I have a bunch of SUNW stock I purchased after a poorly-timed AAPL sell, too!

I'll commiserate...

Yeah, but you don't have to drive by the Sun campus (Burlington, MA) every frickin day on your way to work! It just makes my day... smiling smiley

I sold half of mine and bought a B&W G3 rev 1 and a honkin big 21 inch Apple monitor.
I had extra zeros to invest. No ba!!s.
I wouldn't be working now if I had.

I walk by that (G3) every day like Jack drives by Sun.

Working in computer support back when Sun was up and Apple was low, I saw where Sun was headed. And it became that by 2003, a nice bargain at $3 a share that might eventually recover. Well, 4-5 years later it has managed to get back up over $5. Just wish I had the money available then to have put it into Apple, I saw how fast the iPod was getting picked up by the college students around me.

16% here. Of course I only bought my first stock ever in June and Apple is doing by far the best out of the 15 or so I picked.
