StockBlade Call To Avoid AAPL And Goldman- Both Get The Hammer
May 22, 2008 12:23 AM
We warned to avoid Apple in this area and said we should have advocated to short it. It got crushed today. I just cannot imagine what people are thinking being long AAPL in the $190 range. The chart says no, common sense says no, the PE says no AND it is in the worst space to be in - in the world - US Consumer Discretionary. Ok, well, the worst space to be in is airlines, but let’s be real, anyone buying those may as well give me all their money now and save them time from watching their account plunge to nothing.
Anyhow, the Appleheads took a beating today. I am not down on AAPL, Jobs is brilliant ( and I have very high standards for brilliance, Gates is not in that category, IMO) . But the stock is overpriced and overhyped and more importantly the chart screamed to avoid it up here. On my other caution call on AAPL the reversal was not “confirmed”. The reversal was confirmed on 05/15. Not to get into what I consider a confirmation or not, but that reversal was never confirmed and it marched higher.
Oh, and I think Cramer JUST screamed long AAPL yesterday…uhhhhh wrong as I said.
