Essentially the same argument from you back then.

AAPL closing price on Jan 20th, the date of that post. $420.30

How long will that last? I'm not sure, and perhaps a comment of "Sell AAPL, buy GOOG" is better than just "sell AAPL, realize your gains".

Why not just buy both? If you believe they/either have good growth opportunities, good products, good upside and are well run companies with solid fundamentals - why the heck not? Why let fanboyism/emotional preclude you from investing/making money off either stock or enjoying your selection of cell phone purchases?

I still don't get why people make such emotional battlegrounds for themselves in the name of blind fanaticism. Soon you'll have to add cell phone maker to the list of "Don't mention religion or politics on a first date."


. . . cue the joke about Apple/Android fanboys never getting a date in the first place.
