I don't take issue with what you believe, the issue is how you push it by insulting anyone and everyone that doesn't agree with your opinion.



Funny. After reading your post I decided to go back in time to see how I first started addressing the board. I notice you were the 4th and 5th response to me. Sadly both posts of yours were deleted, so obviously they were an attack on me. This was SIX YEARS AGO!
Truth is, if someone responds to me civilly I return in kind. I've been insulted so many times on this board I've forgotten what my alias name is. You find it perfectly acceptable for one of your pumper buddies to attack and insult, but heaven forbid I respond likewise.

It seems you all are more interested in being right than saving investors from themselves.



Well, isn't the above the same goal? However, if someone is going to refute me with insults, why in the world would I try to save them from themselves? My goal is to help any newbies who might wander in from not having all the facts. I posted PACER info, and results from lawsuits. I don't try to make assumptions based on dreams and wishes. And I certainly will point out the agenda of your buddy deerballs.
You don't want me to be a "dick", don't heckle me to be one.
Now, as I was reading through my old posts, I came across one back in 2018 between us. You decided to make a baseball analogy (or maybe I did?)....This was 6 years ago. You make the same exact claims you are still making today. And as I pointed out back then, you would have been MUCH better off investing at the end, rather than tieing up your money for years (I didn't think it would be this many). I'm sure by now you are aware of how much lost opportunity in the market you've watched go by. If you had just bought ALL the companies this company is suing, you'd be up at least 200%. And, for that baseball analogy...
this company has had a lot of walks, then got picked off first base. This team has won zero bets. NONE and its 6 years later. No runs have crossed the plate and you could today be buying the stock so much cheaper than it was in 2016. You still think you were right back then?

You have again missed the point and now the math.

"If you could get the very same odds on that baseball team at the beginning of the season or the end, when would you prefer to pick?"

Those that invested early are at sub pennies and those that invested later are not. So you tell me if those in at the beginning are in a better position. Your contention that the odds will be the same at both the beginning and the end has not yet borne out and cannot until near the end.

You can bet on the odds being the same at the start and the finish, but that seems like a very bad bet to me. Being long in this stock, I don't let the daily fluctuations influence my decision to hold. My research and DD dictates when and how much I will invest or sell. I have seen nothing on this board yet that convinces me it's time to sell, despite the cacophony of doomsday scenarios proffered by recently arrived "interested parties" trying to save me from myself.

"If you pick at the end of the season, you have all your money to make other, much safer bets."

The investment in safer bets over a period of years will generally yield a much smaller relative return. It comes down to the final return. If this hits big, which many believe it will based on their research, safer bets will pale in comparison to the potential of this stock.

"And, since we are using baseball analogies (something that I know quite a bit about), if the first batter of the inning gets a walk, do you score that a run in your scorecard? There are no wins here, there is a long process of very unlikely and impossible to conceive."

And, since we are using baseball analogies:
If a team wins 80% of their games in the regular season do you consider that a win? (Patents granted, IPR challenges clean sweep)
Again a walk in the first inning of a game is not determinative of anything. It is too small a sample. This is a process or a season not a single batter in a single at bat. But I would say that Apple has walked quit a few batters in more than a few innings with regard to the IPRs. The other vplm batters have averaged in the 400s for that process. Not bad in baseball terms. But stats aside it's the win loss ratio that counts and the final result in the series that determines the ultimate winner. We will all have to stay tuned to see how that plays out.

I'm done discussing the baseball analogy and will be moving on to nursery rhyme analogies where appropriate lol, fewer details to explain when the intent was to make a broader more general point. Thank you however for your thoughtful and courteous discourse, it is appreciated. I still disagree.


Just my opinion, of course.
