Placed a buy order Monday

A market order. I don't remember the last time I placed a market order.

Re-filled the last third of the AAPL I sold at $188 about 6 months ago, so I made about $40/share buy selling and then buying back this batch. Coulda made a lot more, I know, but I've had way too much to do lately to stay on top of this. Time to fire and forget for a while longer, I reckon.

I haven't actually received a trade confirmation yet ... my broker is a little funny that way: great executions (when I'm not placing a market order) but slow notifications. I usually find out via snail-mail.

For myself, after buying AAPL at $87 about a year ago and selling it at $188 about 4 months ago, buying 2/3 of it back at $183 shortly thereafter (and moving the other 1/3 to cash), while I could be happier, I'm still pretty darned happy -- I'm up about 66% in a year on my AAPL, total, with room for significant upside from these reduced levels.
