one and the same (identity) -- having participated here on other boards for some years, and having been the impetus for the "migration" on this one.
As for the research, I would have expected better from you. After all, I did point out the e-minis, etc. The QQQs are only a fraction of the ETF-generated AAPL trades, and that's before you even get to the Mutual Fund industry and the Index Funds flow of trades, which themselves are not insubstantial.

As for research, I wasn't suggesting you do it because I needed it, I was implying/suggesting it would be good for the board for people to contribute an equivalent amount of research to the questions they ask others on the board to research. RB was lacking in substance in part because the off-the-top-of-the-head speculation vs. actual data/research commentary ratio was abysmal, but also because of a general laziness/unwillingness of participants to spend even a fraction of the time looking through real data as in speculation and blabber.

BTW, if/when you do the rest of the research, you'll find that between 1/3 and 1/2 of the average daily volume in AAPL, like most stocks, comes from sources that aren't even trading AAPL directly. If I run back across a summary source of data (for the markets generally), I'll be sure to post it for general background.
But the main point is that the bulk of volume in the markets is "professional" and institutional money, and increasing portions of it are run through indices and index instruments. A big chunk of the volume in AAPL never even considers Apple directly, and then another big chunk is moved by these sorts of institutions and traders who I can assure you don't read MacCentral, much less the obscure rumor sites frequented by Macheads. Even if the news of the day from these sites was known to them, they wouldn't dream of making buy or sell decisions on the basis of what to anyone but a devoted Machead would be irrelevant noise.
