I stil don't believe you because the only ones who could have made anything were after hours traders, not "day traders," who have to use the NASDAQ. Sorry, what you claim is just not believable. When the markets opened after the Financial Call the next day, it only went up. . .

It doesn't matter that he used the real time Bloomberg Terminal or not. As required by law, the data about Apple's Financials was only released after market close at above $130, and those Financials were STILL better than Apple's own guidance by a considerable amount and better than what the Street was expecting it to be that very morning.

However, at exactly when the bell rang, before the data were released, Yahoo Finance and several other Main Stream Media outlets, as soon as the markets closed had headlines prepared and published on the Internet that Apple's 3rd quarter was "disappointing," and Falsely claimed that Apple had MISSED the street's earnings expectations (completely false) andCLAIMED themissed expectations were several BILLION DOLLARS HIGHER than the one they had published just ten hours earlier as the Street's "Whisper Numbers!" and which are always considerably higher than the regular number than the Street's consensus earnings number. Apple exceeded by 33% their previous 3rd quarter sales and earnings record from last year. . . and that was "disappointing"?

The pre-announcement articles even included a paragraph that Apple's guidance for the next quarter failed to "exceed" the expectations of the "street," yet Apple's guidance was only $130 million (0.25%) lower than the highest range of the Street's average analysts' expectations. Absurd to claim that a miss, especially when Apple is known to always be conservative on such prognistication. Remember, this is based on what anal-cysts predicted Apple would guide. Navel gazing with no evidence, compounded by an agenda to suppress the stock.

Ha!

LOL

You stuck your foot in it again...Day traders don't just trade during the day....lol....Bwahahahaha

And I all ready told you that he anticipated the drop in price and was positioned before the release when Apple butt boys were still vapid about the results and were bidding it higher as per usual..

BTW, Bloomberg terminal is a high speed service. It's very expensive and only a choice number of traders use it. It's not just a real time service,,But again, you would not know that.

I'm only pointing out that like most idiots with opinions on everything they don't have any expertise in, you continue to shoot yourself in the foot, time and time again.

All this is meaningless drivel to a contrarian options trader. But you would not know that either..
