Here's Apple losing more than 20% of its value

Nobody knows why it's happening. They're talking about a "fat finger mistake" on CNBC.
Some of these people look pretty scared.
- mbreese 16y agoApple's losses are likely just in line with the market, but it could be the AT&T extension. The market would like to see iPhones on Verizon sooner rather than later.
- sabat 16y agoMany iPhone customers would like to see iPhones on Verizon sooner than later. Including this one.
- potatolicious 16y agoI hate AT&T with a raging passion. My iPhone's data plan is in reality 40% of the data plan. The other 60% of the time my phone doesn't think I'm on the internet even though I have full bars and the 3G icon.
- sabat 16y agoI just started a new contract, and I'm on CalTrain the other day, minding my own business, when this guy next to me has two calls drop on him in a row. He has an iPhone. He mutters, "Gawd, AT&T sucks," and everyone around laughs. It's now conventional wisdom that AT&T has awful cell coverage. It's especially bad in the Bay Area, but it's bad everywhere. I can't wait to leave.
- potatolicious 16y agoI think we need a new term other than "coverage". In the old days, "bad coverage" means a place where there aren't enough cell towers around, where you're not getting any bars. Nowadays, even when you're downtown, surrounded by farms of cell towers, getting full bars, your phone will still magically not work.
- sp332 16y agoInsufficient capacity? Bad cell tower hand offs?
- pyre 16y agoVerizon is no saint either. The only service I would purchase from Verizon is FIOS (and maybe cable).
- sabat 16y agoI've heard it has its problems, but I cannot express to you how much worse AT&T is.
- theli0nheart 16y agoKicking myself right now for not putting a limit order to sell puts I bought a couple of weeks ago...could've had a nice long vacation :)
