NOOOO SOMEONE THINK OF THE INVESTORS

So, it is on sale? Apple has the market by the balls and will continue to grow unless some serious legal trouble kills them.

I don't even like Apple and consider them a good investment.

I’m waiting for a deeper sale due to the pending federal investigation.

Not really. I bought at $160 something a few months back and sold at $190; it's currently $181.

I think when most people talk investment they're speaking in longer terms.

Unless you're on wallstreetbets.

AAPL is up 40% over the last year, 361% the past five.

Who lost billions? I sure don't sell stocks because they dip 5%, that's normal for tech.

Berkshire Hathaway's investors and Warren Buffet probably, but idgaf really. Just answering the question, and it's not like that's what investments do as they get re-evaluated (exacerbated by the unfolding AI market.) https://www.investopedia.com/berkshire-hathaway-swings-to-profit-q2-2023-7570232

"pretend lost"

[–] 1984@lemmy.today 9 points 10 months ago

5% is a normal day on the stock market sometimes.

[–] Pyr_Pressure@lemmy.ca 7 points 10 months ago

Unless they bought literally 1 year ago where people would still be up about 20-25%

[–] paddirn@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

If you look at the stock price for the past 5 years, that's barely a blip for Apple. In the past year alone they saw similar drops in September and August, which they bounced back from to get even higher. Doesn't mean they can't come crashing down at some point, but 5% isn't really that much for them.

[–] ABCDE@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

...so? It increased pretty well over the past few months.

[–] superfes@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Are we supposed to cry about it now... or later?

[–] n3m37h@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 10 months ago

Fuck investors
