Not my fault - I sold a looser that use to make jet engines and diesel locomotive engines and bought one that makes cell phones.

Oh, I woke up a long time ago.
Rode the market up, and bailed out before all hell broke loose. Once it's a good value again, I'll hop back on the train.

Oh, No the Nasdaq Tracking stock for the top 100 companies (QQQ) was DOWN after hours,, what could cause that,, well,, it's Apple. Kind of saw something like this happening.
Apple CEO Tim Cook received a ?Courage Against Hate? award from the Anti-Defamation League yesterday for censoring online speech, including Infowars? Alex Jones, whom Cook referred to as a ?violent conspiracy theorist?.
?At Apple, we believe technology needs to have a clear point of view,? said Cook during his acceptance speech. ?This is no time to get tied up in knots. We only have one message for those who seek to push hate, division, or violence: You have no place on our platforms. You have no home here. From the earliest days of iTunes to Apple Music today we have always prohibited music with a history of white supremacy. Why? Because it?s the right thing to do. And as we showed this year, we won?t give a platform to violent conspiracy theorists. Why? Because it?s the right things to do.?
This video is from a liberal about Apple's CEO speech. Younger conservatives were even more appalled. This video is worth watching.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZwYZrSFhWYo
News:
?Apple has lowered its Q1 guidance in a letter to investors from CEO Tim Cook Wednesday,? Steve Kovach reports for CNBC. ?Apple stock was halted in after-hours trading just prior to the announcement, and shares were down about 8 percent when trading resumed 20 minutes later.?
?Apple lowered revenue guidance to $84 billion, down from the $89 to $93 billion it had previously projected,?
Apples drop knocked 2.5% the QQQ. Tomorrow isn't looking good for Tech.
P.S. Apple is DOWN 40% from it's high earlier in the year, might be 50% tomorrow.
Think Apple will find a new CEO in 2019.0 -
Double ooops, apple down even more before trading opens. One way to look at it,, if you had a Million dollars worth of apple earlier this year,, you now have 650.000. Not a happy New Year. 0 -

Apple I phones were nothing but a darling of cheap labor matched with federal reserve stimulus and stupid Americans paying over 1000 dollars for a cell phone.
