Apple has literally been shitting the money bed over a year now.
you're telling me, i owned about $10k of Gilead at $110 a share and now it's down under $80.
JUST
>>55285448
Same, with the help of meme magic I would be rich right now if I actually knew how stocks and business worked.
Because they make almost all of their money off of the iPhone and people are beginning to realize that gravy train can't last forever. Even "innovations" like the iPad or the Apple Watch don't even come close to having the same margins as the iPhone did.
In our lifetimes we will see Apple become more of a niche, designer brand just like it used to be
>>55285352
>Buying AAPL stock
Gigantic market cap so it's harder to grow, entire US market is declining, doesn't pay dividends, I bet you didn't even look at their yearly/quarterly report so here it goes: revenue declining y/y, missing their negative y/y revenue/profit forecasts, massively inflated market cap because of idiots such as yourself who think AAPL is going to keep growing like they did 2007-2014.
There's no fucking reason to buy AAPL, even US treasury bonds are safer and yield the same because of lower taxes, but since you're probably young that is also a shitty decision, learn something about the stock market first
ps the real money is in biopharma
>>55285448
When something bad happens, anything perceived as safe rockets in price. Gold has seen a large jump in value. I expect the FTSE to climb in value soon as people figure that it's not the end of the world but I'd still give things a while to let the dust settle and the markets stabilise.

Last time you could become rich fuck by investing small amount of money was back 2000.
Now market is littered with unstable startups and pyramid schemes so to earn money you have to invest in already strong brands which will cost you.
Nobody could anticipate brexit to sucseed and vote was really close, but some people got lucky.
>>55285523
>but some people got lucky.
Who could that be? :^)
>>55285448
I wouldn't say I anticipated Brexit, but my investments were all net short on the market so I wasn't unhappy about it.
>>55285448
Yes, if you have the ability to see into the future, markets are a sick easy way to make money.
>>55285506
I thought they started paying dividends with Cook?
>>55285506
>doesn't pay dividends
They have been since 2012. If you look at the 'Div Yield' in OP's pic, it's actually pretty generous.
>>55285523
>Last time you could become rich fuck by investing small amount of money was back 2000.
This.
If you want to beat inflation, get some ETFs, preferrably spread over US, EU, and maybe China.
You can still get rich with shit like CFDs or other leverage bullshit, but at this point you can also bet on horses and you're probably going to have more fun, because in 95% of the cases, the bank and the broker are the only ones who are winning.

You know you can bet on political events too, right? Paddypower had Brexit as very unlikely, think you would win nine times the amount you bet if you bet on Leave.
>>55285570
>>55285566
Yeah I was wrong, haven't looked at AAPL in a long time. 2.5% still doesn't make me remotely consider buying though, with the overall negative outlook of the stock.
>>55285523
What about 2008? In hindsight there were clear signs of a crash
You're not completely wrong, but it's still possible to consistently predict large fluctuations in stock, but you need thousands of hours looking at spreadsheets, knowing what to look at.
>>55285657
Holy shit, you're about to roll deep in benjamins m8. AMD is about to release the Rx 480 and Zen is months away now.

The safest thing to invest in is your own human capital. If you have a skillset that is wanted in multiple countries, it is going to be your best safeguard against any political or financial situation.
Your virtual dollars on some bank's server can evaporate into nothing in a matter of seconds when any part of the system fails, but nobody can take away what you can actually *do*
>>55285468
Nah.
>>55285448
The problems is not about knowing how it works, but actually having enough funds to actually make money.
The past already stated that its quite easy to make money if you are not full retarded and look up what you trade with, since 90% of the other players are dumb ass fuck and just follow the trend(see financial crisis, where investment bankers made billions selling shitty stocks for a several times its worth to banks).

Nobody could have really got rich from Brexit stocks.
The GBP only dropped something like 10%, and by now it's a lot further up already. So that means you could only have made 10% profit thereabouts.
>>55286778
I'm not an expert but isn't holding 200 fucking thousand dollarydoos worth of pennystocks like AMD dangerous as fuck?
When they plummet even a little bit you're basically screwed
>>55286791
>So that means you could only have made 10% profit thereabouts.
leverage man. Put options on GBP could've potentially made you rich
But shit like this is not for the average joe and I doubt many people actually did it, because that would be dangerous as fuck
>>55285497
I think it's also that people aren't updating their smartphones that much anymore because smartphones are starting to get to the point where they are fast enough. CPU improvements are only really a big deal if you are a smartphone gamer.
A flagship smartphone from 2012 will run like shit but a flagshit smartphone from 2014 (like OPO and LG G3) will still run fine.
>>55286792

Risky means more profitable (if everything goes well), this is stocks 101. Remember bitcoin?

High risk investment can be more profitable in the short term. Index funds are almost always the best long term investment though.

Not really, the market was strong pre-Brexit. Now's the time to buy while everything's crippled if you believe that Britain's struggle is merely temporary.
Don't buy if you think the EU will make an example out of the UK and hamper trade.
>>55285497
>Apple become more of a niche, designer brand just like it used to be
if they're lucky. People are realizing that the other smartphone operating systems are superior. The meme of apple being simple and just werks is dying as people realize that's a baldfaced lie.
>>55288368
I think the EU will try and fail to hamper trade and only harm itself.
I'm sure most countries outside the EU will trade freely with the UK because they're not retarded.
>>55288737
>I'm sure most countries outside the EU will trade freely with the UK because they're not retarded.
Clearly but spitting in the face of the largest trading block on the planet puts Britain in a position of weakness and the US, Canada, Mexico and Asian nations will take advantage of that for better rates.
>>55288838
until other countries follow britains lead.
How long have they been going down for?
