Apple Inc (AAPL)

[Steve Nix]

Time to take a breather again? As an Apple lover I know what this company is capable of in the next year or so. As a swing trader I am aware that the operating results that will be announced next week will not compare with the results of a year ago. Yes, I know that a year ago Apple had their first $50 BILLION dollar quarter. They had introduced the iPhone 5 and the iPad Mini, refreshed the full size iPad, redesigned the iPod and iMac products, so it isn't fair to compare this year to last. However, that is what people that buy stock do, they compare performance. Is it improving or falling back? That's an easy question to answer this quarter. I'm going to take my $1000+ profit (I last sold at $432, then bought back at $417). I hope I can buy back at a lower price after earnings are reported. OUT at $428.60
