AAPL split in 2 in 2005 and had a big 7:1 split in 2014. Pre-2005 unadjusted prices are 14x!
I do remember the days of $10-20 AAPL in 2003/4 when I first started using Macs. Personally, I got out during the 2008 3Q crash and missed out on the huge recovery, somewhere in the 9x range on those shares from when I sold to what they're worth today :(
- qubex 9y agoI went though the first split, so that $100 is actually equivalent to $200, and that is literally why I chose to sell: I thought to myself ”the market price is now ten times higher than when you purchased, don’t be greedy, take the nine-fold windfall and be content”. It was sound advice to have from one’s own counsel, but... in hindsight I’ve regretted it ever since, it just makes me cringe.
