Apple Inc AAPL

Is Aapl banksters plug stock for mark to market ?

[exprohibition18]

Given how pronounced this name has derailed from any semblance of proper valuation - we trade 25 times cash flow and 27 times net book value - zero prospect to "grow into " this valuation given 60% of their product line is quite mature and saturated - the question is - why are we here ????

is Apple the ultimate banking mark to market tool for "managing " index specific closing "strike setting " strike pinning etc on thousands of derivatives contracts on qqq , Nasdaq futures etc with FANG so heavily represented??? Would more than offset the cost of accumulated stock to reap all that derivatives windfall for pinning strikes and suppressing volatility . 

has any research or investigation been done to see what these aggressive uptick only accumulation algos are really about and whether it is at all related to options expiration cycles ?

Is this movement in FANG one giant bank manipulation  of index products and banks using FANG as their easy to control plug variables ? 

because it's no longer valuation !  Banks manipulate everything : interest rates gold ? 

all imho

Awesome Comments. LOL Why do you want to wate your time and energy writing this when clearly you do not understand the value or what Apple does. exprohibition18 should not be buying this stock. Everyone else YES. This Stock is going to skyrocket next month  This stock is for both short term and long term. GLTA

If you ignore exprohibition the board clears right up.. I dont usually ignore people but when their posts are the only ones cluttering up the ENTIRE board what choice do you have?

Agree Gas- I'm new here . Couldn't believe all EXPro's posts. What a bore & jerk. Had some good info on valuations , but over the top . Don't know how he gets so much access from his hospital rubber-room : ) ... been following Apple for years , but afraid of the hi price now. Was thinking public may flock to a $125.00 sp next week ?.... but Cramer even says not to buy Apple now

Tech goes up when interest rates are low, lots of money has been pushed into the economy by the govt, no one will do without their new phones, so I think it goes higher.. Ive been wrong before but I think it splits monday morning and then goes up to $150 or $160 in a month or so.

Its a fallacy pitched to the investing public that low rates are good for tech Ask Japan . They have lived with zero rates for 3 decades. Never witnessed anything remotely like the FREAKSHOW going down in FANGS right now
