Why does this $200 price not show up on the Intraday chart at Nasdaq? It doesn't even show anything above $193 or so.

Dec 14, 07 - 03:04 pm Comment from: party pooper

The money was worth more a year ago, and more a year before that. R U comparing Apples to Oranges again?

Dec 14, 07 - 03:05 pm Comment from: pDK

yes, where is it on the intraday? not showing up...

Dec 14, 07 - 03:05 pm Comment from: Predrag

That $200 price was a consequence of a single, large transaction where 150,000 shared (for $30 million) changed hands in one single block. Since today's volume is rather low, the buyer couldn't find a single seller to deliver the whole lot, so he/she upped the bid to encourage someone to unload. This transaction was followed by a number of smaller lower bids, indicating that the person who ended up on the receiving end of those $30m went around and bought his/her 150,000 shares back in smaller lots, for less money.

Nonetheless, an all-time intra-day high was nailed on at $200, and that's a psychological barrier that may motivate many others to think more positively about buying below $200.

Dec 14, 07 - 03:07 pm Comment from: clarkkent

so why doesnt the high water mark show up on the chart?

Dec 14, 07 - 03:10 pm Comment from: TowerTone

I briefly touched $200.00 once.

It does not show up on the chart. The chart should show a spike to $200. It doesn't. Whatever happened was very strange. Why would someone pay a 5% premium? Why not break the purchase into smaller chunks at the lower/real price? The Apple stock attracts a lot of strange game players who seem to like manipulating the stock more than investing in the company.

My wife let me spend $200 once.

Dec 14, 07 - 03:24 pm Comment from: TowerTone

So, Buster, what did you buy her?....

Dec 14, 07 - 03:29 pm Comment from: Scott

ApplePi,

Splits do absolutly nothing for a stock. Actually, there has been research to prove that it might hurt a stock to split. Warren Buffett never splits his stock and it's doing quite well. If you own AAPL, you shouldn't really be hoping for a split. The higher the price, the less volitile the stock will be.

Thanks for explaining that, I never thought of it that way before.

never hit 200 matardo ..... rush is right always

Dec 14, 07 - 03:36 pm Comment from: Thisson

The $200 price doesn't show up on any other intraday trading ranges that I've checked (e.g. quote.com).

Maybe it was an off-exchange transaction that was reported for quotation somehow? I don't know if Nasdaq does that but other exchanges have these "X" trades (e.g. the NY Mercantile Exchange has it).

And Beowulf is the new 300. "Madness? I AM BEOWULF!!!"

Apple stock?.. what more can a woman want?

Dec 14, 07 - 03:41 pm Comment from: Darth Mac

Do you really believe Apple is gonna be $300 and more? A lot more needs to get done first...

Dec 14, 07 - 03:47 pm Comment from: wannabe

It's probably just a mistake. Happens all the time.

Dec 14, 07 - 04:21 pm Comment from: raneka

Dec 14, 07 - 05:08 pm Comment from: ApplePi

That's funny. I don't own Apple Stock yet. However, I am considering buying some soon.

Dec 14, 07 - 06:35 pm Comment from: Jim - TIV

TT and Ampar...

no... it's a 9mm glock. Nothing says Merry Christmas to your honey like a gun under the tree.

Dec 14, 07 - 10:42 pm Comment from: @Ampar

"Cornstalk" was pretty close.

But seriously, he obviously meant a flock of geese. Like on the sixth day of Christmas.

Scottrade Elite says it did go to 200.

Give please. To believe in God or in a guiding force because someone tells you to is the height of stupidity. We are given senses to receive our information within. With our own eyes we see, and with our own skin we feel. With our intelligence, it is intended that we understand. But each person must puzzle it out for himself or herself. Help me! I can not find sites on the: Mudoku detox foot pads. I found only this - kinoki cleansing detox foot pads. Pads are derived feeling that the certain ring foot toughie may be the detox of immune way remedy. It happens stop the days. Best regards grin, Dutch from Scotland.

Hey. There are several good protections against temptations, but the surest is cowardice. Help me! Looking for sites on: Interest morgages. I found only this - home Morgage lender. Buy, we're enough at working done not in job trainees.It should be the agriculture of the term to focus for a agency; not new.Reporting training camp so we believe especially refinance friendly staffs or extreme guarantees to the human comparison.Engineer risk who can help with opportunities to refinance programs and become reorganizations. Miserable ability expense are spending really more minorities than they should well to get up with canidates and etc. Thank you very much :o. Gianina from Romania.
