Oh look someone wanted to drop Apple stocks so they can buy the dip. 😂

I feel like this happened with iPhone 8 too ppl wanted to buy they iPhone X. So this maybe the most diehard that buy right away are waiting for the Duo.


Also if it did drop independent of that it wouldn’t be surprising the 17 pro sold like crazy and the 18 pro looks the same. This says nothing about apples long term viability or ability to make money. Apple will continue to make money head over fist. No one looked at the 18 pro $100 bump and got a Samsung or a pixel which are prob less value at this point.

Will they rise again when the iPhone Duo orders are pushed far back? I expect to see that.

Every single year it’s the same production cuts story. Right on schedule. Usually Nikkei Asia is the manipulator and they do it very early Friday morning after a big run up in the stock price. I have seen this every single year for the past 16 years. It’s garbage
