AAPL looks good, share price up over 5% post market

[owenga] 01/8/2017 21:59

Looks like Apple results were good and expecting huge sales of iPhone for rest of year. No mention of any delays to iPhone 8 launch.

MTSI, misses by a big margin, share price down 24% post market, make of it what you like

Impressive DP, sometimes it's easier to hold a share v long term if you've been underwater for a long time as we all were yrs ago.. We are now showing such high profit we can top slice and run the bal, something sw will no doubt scoff at but it is the prudent thing to do, I have already, twice. In fact as he said don't take anything you read on these threads too seriously he has prob exited a certain percentage if the truth be known or runs the risk of another IMG. There are still significant risks, not least the huge investment they plan for development of tech that could be superseded or undercut which was the fear in 2014. I have my own thoughts why you'd be shorting right now and they are patient, we may get a sell off on results in sept and certainly if the shorts rise much further I would consider selling some more, Marshall wace have good record, they rarely open a short and not increase

Credit to you and your patience

So is that MTSI and AAPL both reporting tonight? Might have to stay up later and tune in.

[dpmeyer] 01/8/2017 18:12

Sorry about this to Sweenoid et al, but I bought 100000 shares on 20 Apr 2009 @ 9.32p per share. I also have quite a few more @ 12.9p per share. Sadly, my overall average isn't quite that low!

No matter - there'll be many who'll beat me, and good luck to them.

B7T - you are joking I assume !

[ny boy] 01/8/2017 17:50

Not jealous at all 😳

Well done TW. MY cheapest purchases were around 18p, and most were in the low 20s which i've had for about 3 years. didn't have the balls to pick up more when they dropped down to 12p a few years ago and been buying all the way up to 60p.

The good news is that haven't sold a single share yet... :) will start top slicing around £2.

Dave,
It was a speculative purchase Oct '14, which worked out alright, sold and bought a few cycles since, so far so good, as they say.


"Pick a great story and stay onboard. well worth a watch". The problem with stories is, it can be all in the telling.

[nimbo1] 01/8/2017 17:18

you should watch this if you are trying not to sell. Peter Lynch one of the great investors. Be patient, do your research and don't panic when stocks fall and you'll do ok. Pick a great story and stay onboard. well worth a watch - found it on a different board, can't remember who posted it.

[toffeeman] 01/8/2017 17:16

keeshon - they are all O trades so could all be buys (or of course sells) but given the price action today you can deduce which.

[mark_jm] 01/8/2017 17:11

almost sold this morning, thought it was settling down a little, but then saw a bit of a climb and thought lets hold on another hour... didn't sell in the end - an uncustomary good decision for me.

[keeshond] 01/8/2017 17:08

"Gonna be lots of share purchases showing up after 'close'"

and lots of sells, too....but you can't be right all the time, sweenoid :)

[deltrotter] 01/8/2017 16:42

Actually, it could be cheaper now in many ways than when it was 20p.... certainly it shouldn't put off anyone buying. In 5 years this could be £10 imo.

[volsung] 01/8/2017 16:40

But what was your cheapest sell TW?

[twatcher] 01/8/2017 16:36

Is this a good time to say that my cheapest purchase was 13p ?

[bocase] 01/8/2017 16:33

Apple report after the bell tonight and promise to give more details on the iPhone 8. Might be some clues in there. Perhaps why there was buying today or maybe the overhangs has been cleared..who knows..nice day though
