As for aapl… dont jump on that at all, they will have a pretty steep downfall soon, im guessing twenty or thirty points.

A 17 POINT return (sorry about the caps) on something that is going to take a significant amount of investment to see is not a good, especially something that, at as high as apple is, not very secure. Think about it this way, for 100 shares, it will cost you $18,300 dollars for a $1,700 return, if it does break the $200 barrier, that is only a 9% return rate, not good even under best circumstances.

I didn’t say it was secure move, or a good idea to put your money in one stock. I just kind of said it; JDMjunkie is most likely not going to invest in the market anyway.
