Today there is a $1.24 jump in the value of the stock. What happened? Is there something that the business world knows that we don't?

They know less...
Remember, after the G5 came out (arguably the fastest PC available)... the stock went down.
I would like to see a study of the pump the stock gets before MacWorlds... say buy 3 months before and sell the day before... how much would you make in a 2 year period?

I don't have any numbers but I follow Apples stock and don't remember big increases around MacWorld's. Of Course I do have a poor memory

At 26.418 (+5.0%) right now. It might break 28 today.
Off topic, but:

Assuming Bush gets reelected and leaves taxes alone, it will not matter that you have more money because the value of the dollar will go down, partially, because the deficit will be so large. (Per Greenspan's comments to the economic committee).

18 something, a LONG LONG LONG time ago. OSX came out. The stock didn't move. The iPod came out. The stock didn't move. The tibooks came out, the g4 towers, the G4, the flat panel imacs, and apple reports HUGE profits that greatly exceeded their expectations. The stock didn't move. It doesn't make any ****ing sense. Apple is doing great, and their stock never moves. Now that it's above 25, FINALLY, I sold it today. Then, in a month or so, when it goes back down to 15 or whatever, I'll probably buy it and wait for it to get back up to the low 20s, then sell again.
Anyway, it just goes to show you that the rest of the world doesn't know anything; apple has been doing EXTREMELY well, especially in comparison to most tech companies, yet it's stock was NOT as lucrative as I thought it'd be.

as long as apple keeps making money, innovating, and being the best (in my eyes at least) then who really cares about the stock.

Assuming you bought the stock three years ago, you've made roughly 11% each year, and you're complaining?

AAPL was in the upper $70's from the fall of '98 to Summer of '99....after the January MWSF '00, Apple was up to $130 by March...
Boy, have times changed...

Don't get confused by the stock split in June, 2000. Apple's adjusted price hasn't been higher than $70 or so, ever.

For a company that brought out OSX, tibooks, iPods, and FP imacs, and now the new G5, it should be much higher.

�ash this is probably a good call.
(If I were brave enough to buy Apple stock, I'd know pretty damn well by now that these highs are never permanent)

The average stock return is 11%. Some years worse, some better. To get 11% per year after 3 years is pretty darn good.
You have to remember, part of the reason the stock price isn't higher is that Apple in a lot of ways is viewed as small potatoes. The market share isn't there, the product line was much smaller in 98, there aren't a lot of government contracts or enterprise contracts, much of the international market is addressed by resellers and not Apple, and rumours do have an impact on recommendations.
So you can either view it as undervalued and wait for it to reach its potential, or see it for the deal it is, given that it is returning on average what the market returns. When an investment does that, it's best to buy in, and use it for generating retirement income, not quick cash. It's also best to do that for a number of different areas, such as pharmaceuticals and publishing, not just tech.
11% is good. More is high expectations that haven't been proven sustainable. Bubbles pop. The question is, once you suspect a bubble, how will you know when to get out before it pops? That's why long term investing is more sound than daytrading.

I did buy it as a long term investment, thinking that after the release of OSX it would go up, and after the ipod, and new iMacs, it would continue to rise. After having it get near 23 for a while, then dropping down to 15, then sitting at around 20 for freaking EVER, I'm sick of it. I sold at 26. something, and I'll repurchase more when (and it will) gets low again.

I bought some Apple stock around Mac OS X 10.0 at 21 because it had been going up and up for the past few months. Within a week of buying it dropped down to 17 and I a held on until it went back up to 20 and sold... It then dropped and dropped and I was tempted to buy it at 12 because I thought it couldn't go any lower but sadly I had no money that the time because I had bought a car... I could have nearly doubled my money almost in a year

WHY? 
27.40 a share and the nasdaq is down below 2000. I read something about a possible apple buyout by sony but i haven't seen anything near concrete to support that possibility. Still, even so the little attention that article got just doesn't explain why Apple's stock is performing so well. what's going on?

Apple stock value is underperformed the first place. The stock is driven up more of because of the iPod mini being sold out everywhere. Sony buyout news has a small effect, but since most know it's not true, that's just that.

Well, Prudential Equity Group thinks it's going to come back down:
It would appear to us that at a 70% premium to Dell, which itself has historically enjoyed a rich multiple, Apple's valuation has become expensive, and we believe the shares will likely trade back down through the first half.
and
Though we remain impressed with Apple's innovation, product portfolio, and store success, we do not yet have the necessary conviction that iPod or iTunes momentum will carry through materially into the company's other, more important, core product areas
