AAPL---Ooops...seems it's just fruit after all...

    Posted by sanrafael on 25th of Oct 2012 at 04:37 pm
    • APPLE 4Q EPS $8.67, EST. $8.75 - miss
    • APPLE 4Q SALES $36.0B
    • APPLE SOLD 14.0 MILLION IPADS DURING QTR, UNIT EST. 15.3M

    But the uglyness is in the forecast. And this time it is not a low-ball:

    • APPLE SEES 1Q EEPS $11.75, , EST. $15.49
    • APPLE SEES 1Q REV. ABOUT $52B, EST. $55.07B

    Stock halted so keep an eye on the QQQ as a proxy.

    sales were higher...isnt that what usually what matters?

    But they only slightly beat

    Posted by sanrafael on 25th of Oct 2012 at 05:05 pm

    But they only slightly beat on sales and guided lower for upcoming 1Q---The Hedge Funds are heading out for now, until they can start buying again at much lower prices...IMO

    The Market just wants an orderly exit...because there will surely be selling tomorrow at the open---then probably a bounce because most of this report was already sold in the last month.  The Hedge funds want to be able to re-buy at wholesale prices...

    Please use caution when copying and pasting from news sources.  They use a lot of "hidden" script which can conflict with our Community.

    Tom- What measues should be take when posting -- re: copy & paste actions of other sources ?

    I mean we can't know if there is hidden script etc.etc.    thnx

    Great question.  Well I wouldn't

    Posted by tom on 25th of Oct 2012 at 04:45 pm

    Great question.  Well I wouldn't make a habit of copying and pasting things here from other sources to begin with.  In general your likely sharing your thoughts and ideas and typing them so it should be a rarity. 

    One thing you can do though is past whatever your coping first in Notepad (on PCs, IDK what a mac version would be) because notepad will strip out all of that script and then copy from notepad and paste.
