AAPL is gaining more momentum.

At some point, seeling might be advised, since I'm sure it will fall back to somewhere around $ 27 or so.

I dunno what to do...

Yes, but sell just before... it always goes down after.

Before WWDC or before THE END of WWDC ?
Or right after the keynote ?

Sell the day before the keynote or even a day before that (friday)... then buy around a week later...

Yes, sell early. It always goes down after shows... No matter if Apple released the starship Enterprise for a low price of $1000, it would still go down...

Yah, I think some people hold on for that completely ridiculous G6 for $50 never going to happen release.

I'm happy to see Apple doing so well. I wish I would have picked them up when they were at $17...

I had a little over 2 shares at one time. I made around $50 bucks on them. Too bad I didnt have a couple of G's to pluck down then. It is always good to see their stock go up. Maybe after they release the 4Ghz dual cored dual hyperthreading G6 people will finally be happy!

I wish I had not picked them up before the big crash.

I paid 45 EUR (after the stock split)...

I bought mine about 6 months before the split and then sold them after the split.

Apple could discover Cold Fusion and their stock would still go down. (My favorite quote.)

Yup. They are the only company I can think of that does that...

I would be rich now, having bought my aapl shares at 17$ !

Notice that little nasty word "would".. I would be if I hadn't bought at an exchange rate (sFr-$) of 1:1.82, it is now at 1:1.24. Call me stupid

Hold on... it's going to start turning... but by the time it's solid again, Apple will probably be in the $16 range

Poor Ca$h. I remember him bitching about Apple's stock, and then cashing out when it hit $25. He figured a return of roughly 10% a year wasn't enough for him. I wonder what he invested in instead.

Just remember, the recent upswing in AAPL is due to the iPod, and not anything Mac related. Further, beware of dumping AAPL before the show, only to pick it up again afterwards. It might make you money on paper, but you better have a large enough investment to cover the transactions costs.

Yah, I'm almost sure there will be a dip after the show. It dips normally, so without anything major, I wonder what it's going to do.

I'm sure it will be back within a few days of after the show...
