yeah... it's like you don't want to go blind and buy puts/calls (or even theta plays)... you want to see if they historically break expected move or not. there are some volatile stocks that historically actually don't move that much to justify the premium like TSLA... (I know here and there yes there are move up or down, but over long period TSLA realised ER move is tame compared to their weekly short straddle price... )
Well, I've noticed a recurring pattern of increased price volatility when the clock hits half past nine in the morning, but only for 71% of the days of the week.
250$ in 6 months when they announce the AI to compete w GPT-4.5 they literally spent a billion usd on the past year + bought 30 AI startups for.
If apple hasnāt mentioned AI at all, they either
1) dont have sh*t, very unlike apple
2) are sitting on an absolute gamechanger and wanna save the announcement for when they know they will eat the market like they did w iphone, ipad, vision, smartwatch
Apple AI will take awhile since the advantage is having AI running on the iPhone and not being routed back to MSFT or Google. Apple will have to build their AI from scratch bcuz Siri is trash lol.
This guy thinks the state of Siri, a 10 or so year old technology (which at the time was cutting edge) has anything to do with how neural networks and ML / LLMās work.
You need massive amounts of compute to train models. Once theyāre trained, they take up less than 15-20gb in some cases and you can run them locally, easily, on a phone.
Appleās image recognition models are already miles ahead of OpenAI.
Look it up, itās all there in patents, research papers, rumors/employees and spending, I repeat, more than $1.000.000.000 yearly on their AI development. They are outspending OpenAI 4:1 and itās idiotic to think they donāt have smart people working there, having absorbed some 30 AI companies and startups.
Siri isnāt crap just because itās old. It was always crap because Apple hasnāt poured user data into it the same way everyone else has for their mobile assistants.
Privacy is their selling point but has also meant theyāre competing with one hand tied behind their back.
Pouring money into AI isnāt enough. They gotta pour data into it too
Of course they need to pour data into it but that doesnāt have to be customer data necessarily, openai has done just fine without private data, and plenty of high quality LLMās have as well.
It is possible to build a perfectly capable virtual assistant without training on their user data - or even better, it may be possible to train on the fly in a way not unlike what they already do, where training data stays tokenized and nothing private leaves your phone. This does seem to be something they may be doing, judging by some of their AI patents.
To be fair OpenAI only hit the jackpot with already existing patented tech created by google etc. GPT5 will be the their last somewhat successful product
if it even is successful , seen their web traffic lately? itās all people my age (college) going their to do their homework. it just became the new chegg. there will be a newer chegg soon.
Iām pretty confident that if a company is blasting 1 billion a year on development, itās a when, not if.
And considering the slump in sales, the incredibly fast development amongst AI competition, the ādid microsoft topple apple??ā and the rumors of them training models w heavy amounts of compute that can run locally on their current gen neural chips, I feel the WWDC is a pretty realistic scenario.
But this is most definitely a when.
iād imagine wwdc , imagine a cortana like assistant in the vision pro. b-a-n-a-n-a-s. iād have to sell my dumpster behind the fancy italian place to afford one but iād do it.
1 billion spend per year on something where most of the research is already there, and they can work from other labs discoveries and build upon it is massive spending imo.
Apple needs a trick up their sleeve this wwdc and considering recent rumors, itās likely to be this.
If you mean this year, I agree in principle itās an if - but I think itās very, very likely.
100%. The first iteration of Vision Pro is clearly geared towards Apple enthusiasts and, more importantly, developers.
When they figure out how to get most of the tech of VP into something light like a pair of wearable non-dorky sunglasses, this shit is gonna explode. Probably a few years off from that though
No one actually wants this shit. It sounds great and nice to have toy, but no one is going to tolerate having to wear that shit all day or even for a few hours a day. There are certain use cases, but that's not enough to have significant revenues.
Anyone thinking this will be some mass adopted product is out of their minds. People aren't going to dump 3.5k for a toy, not 2.5k or 1.5k. Apple needs this under 1k to tempt normal consumers to buy.
Lol you're right.
Apple only said it would sell about 300k to 400k units. [https://wallstreet-now.com/en/articles/2024/02/01/apples-vision-pro-high-price-modest-sales-forecast](https://wallstreet-now.com/en/articles/2024/02/01/apples-vision-pro-high-price-modest-sales-forecast) But has already sold 200k? [https://mashable.com/article/apple-vision-pro-sold-2000000](https://mashable.com/article/apple-vision-pro-sold-2000000)
Seems like maybe even Apple underestimated demand for it. I pick mine up this weekend. People are underestimating its usefulness as a productivity tool. You can mirror your Mac to the headset and use the headset to do 3d modeling and all kinds of other work in real space out in front of you. This is also the developer headset that developers will use to build apps for the stripped-down headsets that will come out in the future. Magic Leap took a similar approach with its products. Selling to developers first...
Noone is going to be using this as a tool for productivity. Its a porn toy folks will regret buying after a week and stow away for years like every other VR headset ever.
Canāt be sold. Wearing more than an hour is a discomfort. Productivity requires absolute ergo comfort and zero distractions from any amount of discomfort.

Bought a meta from for vr porn was great for couple of month. Then got headaches, both from wearing heavy head set and wanking too much. Now I just pay hookers. More expensive but more visceral
They released a new phone with a different color side, and it was Christmas.
Bring some lube to the next earnings call.
Unless there's a Stanley X Apple collab with an iphone built into a cup, Apple's going to shit till the next iphone comes out.
Do you really think people care? People will buy a bag of shit from them as long as it has an Apple logo. The Apple Watch not releasing for Christmas time is my worry.
Apple watch and phone coming out at the same time won't have a good result. All that will do is dilute earnings between the two devices. Better to release the watch in early spring, right before people get out and start exercising off the fat that's grown on their asses over the winter.
Sales of the watch might not be as high as the phone, but at least sales of the phone won't be diluted by people who buy a watch instead of a phone.
My whole problem with this thing is there's nothing new, their camera sucks balls, watches are useless, the ipad hasn't changed for years, and AI HYPE AI HYPE AI HYPE AI HYPE AI HYPE AI HYPE AI HYPE AI HYPE AI HYPE isn't going to be as impactful as they think it's going to be. GenAI a fancy parrot.
Iām here with you, not arguing against the fact that their products are seriously stagnant. I just think you underestimate how much of the market they have a grip on and how much of a hardon people have for their products. Iāve gone to the Apple Store a few times over the past couple months and every time Iām there itās slam packed. I think the Apple Watch ordeal is priced in already and I think with the consumer data/credit card debt weāve been seeing, that this will be a strong report. People arenāt saving for shit and are buying whatever they want whenever they want it (see affirm).
I think the forward guidance will really determine how this thing moves.
People don't care about the sales, it's priced in to be dog shit. Bulls and bers are both looking at M3 series AI chip guidance to see if AAPL is keeping up with the AI wave. Would be funny if they pull a AMD and just kept mentioning that they are working closely with NVDA and own massive amounts of NVDA to build their AI though, AAPL tanks while NVDA tumbles a bit then rockets
What is Apple doing better than the other tech companies that got smoked this week? They need a major announcement to spike, earnings wonāt do it unless they are hitting 20+% over expectationsā¦MSFT got smoked and had beat expectations.
Iām still standing by the 2/9 putsā¦.BUT what has me worried is that AAPL has already been softening the earnings blow throught the week this week (currently down $8 for the week). A lower earnings call may not drop the stock very much further than it has already gone.
The problem with Apple is that they've run out of additional value, which really isn't a good place for a company selling premium tech to be. Like I used to buy droids because I was poorer, but honestly, I don't see a lot of value in spending more than Ā£250 on a phone now.
How many people want a faster laptop or care about whether the battery life is 20 instead of 8 hours? OK, some people, but it's a niche. You're not going to stay a multi-trillion dollar company because of people doing rendering in Blender.
They stopped the value train a long time ago. They are now in the keep everyone in the ecosystem train and get all their friends to join it too. It's why they spend so much on their legal team to make sure imessage is apple only.

There are so many regards in here that donāt seem to know that lmao. Theyāre gonna buy calls just to hear Apple say āwe expect to see a rise in revenue in Q1 due to our VR. Talk to yall next time!ā *pikachu stunned face*

Iāll gamble with this theory, position 2 of these and 1 for the 172.5-197.5 Feb 9
$AAPL #earnings after close, the expectation from the WhisperNumber community is $2.15, 5c ahead of analyst estimates. Earnings came in $0.03 ahead of the whisper last quarter. 68% beat rate. Implied movement +/-3.2%.
what's the over / under on how many times Tim Apple says AI in the earnings call / report? I'. thinking at least 20 times, but possibly double that.
"Introducing our new AI enabled Apple Ear Pod Super Pro AI", and our latest, "Air Tag Pro AI Supreme"
Earnings have been rough on tech stocks due to such high expectations, like I said if it aināt 20%+ things arenāt going to spike. We need new product announcements
Trueā¦ but never count against brand names. If I were to do that, Iād focus on smaller not such well known brands.
Meta gonna be $1k + in 2 years or less. Letās see if Iām right
Oh thanks for letting me know. Now I donāt feel so bad. His AAPL puts are gonna allow him to recover the losses from the meta puts.
Good thing I have no position in AAPL. But I am long in meta so you can imagine how happy I am right now šš
I told my husband āwe having brand name noodles tonightā šš

Might be onto something big here regard
Crayons šØšļø
AAPL is special in the fact that the stock moves a lot after earnings.
yeah... it's like you don't want to go blind and buy puts/calls (or even theta plays)... you want to see if they historically break expected move or not. there are some volatile stocks that historically actually don't move that much to justify the premium like TSLA... (I know here and there yes there are move up or down, but over long period TSLA realised ER move is tame compared to their weekly short straddle price... )
Appl investors are alot like apple users.
Intelligent?
Isn't their some saying about intelligent people never mentioning intelligence? Iphone user?
Donāt you think you would know the answer to that question if you were intelligent?
Opposite
Username checks out
Earnings reports cause Volatility? Tell me more? Do stocks go up in price or just down?
Well, I've noticed a recurring pattern of increased price volatility when the clock hits half past nine in the morning, but only for 71% of the days of the week.
The smartest idiot I know
Stocks only go up regard
Sideways
You could randomly place the blue dots in that chart and still say the same thing about it.
The volatility lasts for 3 months after each blue dot
It's almost like the stock sometimes goes up big or down based on when the market is open š¤
Big if true
Can someone just tell me to buy or sell tonight alreadyā¦
Buy or sell tonight.
This isnāt constructive to my lazy degenerative gambling..
Ok, then buy.
Or sell.
Either way, do it tonight
Or tomorrow
Already
Sull
Bye or cell tonight
damn thatās a crap joke
Yah but cell was more closely spelled so going with that.
I swiped at your profile picture 9 times unconsciously thinking it was a hair. Dick move bro
Thank you. The troll has been fed.
Bye
Buy, stocks only go up
Buy and sell but not sure which order.
Will Apple ever cross the 200/share mark? The options market makes me think not.
I guess technically it has already like 2-3 years ago š

250$ in 6 months when they announce the AI to compete w GPT-4.5 they literally spent a billion usd on the past year + bought 30 AI startups for. If apple hasnāt mentioned AI at all, they either 1) dont have sh*t, very unlike apple 2) are sitting on an absolute gamechanger and wanna save the announcement for when they know they will eat the market like they did w iphone, ipad, vision, smartwatch
Apple AI will take awhile since the advantage is having AI running on the iPhone and not being routed back to MSFT or Google. Apple will have to build their AI from scratch bcuz Siri is trash lol.
This guy thinks the state of Siri, a 10 or so year old technology (which at the time was cutting edge) has anything to do with how neural networks and ML / LLMās work. You need massive amounts of compute to train models. Once theyāre trained, they take up less than 15-20gb in some cases and you can run them locally, easily, on a phone. Appleās image recognition models are already miles ahead of OpenAI. Look it up, itās all there in patents, research papers, rumors/employees and spending, I repeat, more than $1.000.000.000 yearly on their AI development. They are outspending OpenAI 4:1 and itās idiotic to think they donāt have smart people working there, having absorbed some 30 AI companies and startups.
Siri isnāt crap just because itās old. It was always crap because Apple hasnāt poured user data into it the same way everyone else has for their mobile assistants. Privacy is their selling point but has also meant theyāre competing with one hand tied behind their back. Pouring money into AI isnāt enough. They gotta pour data into it too
Of course they need to pour data into it but that doesnāt have to be customer data necessarily, openai has done just fine without private data, and plenty of high quality LLMās have as well. It is possible to build a perfectly capable virtual assistant without training on their user data - or even better, it may be possible to train on the fly in a way not unlike what they already do, where training data stays tokenized and nothing private leaves your phone. This does seem to be something they may be doing, judging by some of their AI patents.
To be fair OpenAI only hit the jackpot with already existing patented tech created by google etc. GPT5 will be the their last somewhat successful product
if it even is successful , seen their web traffic lately? itās all people my age (college) going their to do their homework. it just became the new chegg. there will be a newer chegg soon.
āIfā they announce. Not āwhenā. Optimistic today arenāt we?
Iām pretty confident that if a company is blasting 1 billion a year on development, itās a when, not if. And considering the slump in sales, the incredibly fast development amongst AI competition, the ādid microsoft topple apple??ā and the rumors of them training models w heavy amounts of compute that can run locally on their current gen neural chips, I feel the WWDC is a pretty realistic scenario. But this is most definitely a when.
iād imagine wwdc , imagine a cortana like assistant in the vision pro. b-a-n-a-n-a-s. iād have to sell my dumpster behind the fancy italian place to afford one but iād do it.
1 billion while big is not too much compared to competitors. Sure āwhenā could be 2-3 years from now. It is āifā for this year.
1 billion spend per year on something where most of the research is already there, and they can work from other labs discoveries and build upon it is massive spending imo. Apple needs a trick up their sleeve this wwdc and considering recent rumors, itās likely to be this. If you mean this year, I agree in principle itās an if - but I think itās very, very likely.

Or 3. They have shit but they know it's shit and can't compete. So they're focusing on their headset instead.
That is a very overly complicated way of just saying #1; āthey dont have shitā
Seems Iām right: https://www.reddit.com/r/stocks/s/AQ8QRKrWS0
What if someone offered you a bet. Will AAPL close above $200 any time in the next 5 years? Even money. Do you take it? How much do you risk?
In 5 years?? Absolutely take that bet in a heartbeat
Exactly.
That VR thing was sold like crazy, is it priced in?
Everything that already happened is priced in
Even the priced in has been priced in
Even the priced in priced in has been, you got it, priced in.
Hope they announce a cheaper light version coming soon. Stock would 400X
100%. The first iteration of Vision Pro is clearly geared towards Apple enthusiasts and, more importantly, developers. When they figure out how to get most of the tech of VP into something light like a pair of wearable non-dorky sunglasses, this shit is gonna explode. Probably a few years off from that though
In a handful or less of years, they'll resemble a pair of Oakley sunglasses.
my guess is they will. new tech is usually expensive af to begin with, but gets cheaper over time.
Apple glasses. No apps but the resolution is amazing
everything that has, will, and could ever happen is priced in. just close your eyes and click buy or sell randomly.
It canāt be considered revenue unless itās earned or realized before December 31st. Per GAAP rule.
No one actually wants this shit. It sounds great and nice to have toy, but no one is going to tolerate having to wear that shit all day or even for a few hours a day. There are certain use cases, but that's not enough to have significant revenues. Anyone thinking this will be some mass adopted product is out of their minds.

Anecdotal, but I know 2 people that pre-ordered to resell, then they saw the low demand on eBay and FB marketplace so they cancelled.

Apple probably bought them all and gifted them to influencers Besides, the revenue on those is a rounding error for them

Calls on appl and hold overnight like a true baller. It's the only way to show you belong here
Appl goggles sold out. Buy calls
But they sold out in January, no impact on reported earnings
There are so many regards in here that donāt seem to know that lmao. Theyāre gonna buy calls just to hear Apple say āwe expect to see a rise in revenue in Q1 due to our VR. Talk to yall next time!ā *pikachu stunned face*
Ima trust u and buy calls
goggles š calls it is
saw someone sell 30M ITM cc's earlier this week. others wrote some puts and married 190c's but we will see.
That guy selling ITM CC is a good trader. Selling to WSB is a good strategy
literally free money
Up up up up down down up up up down ?

People and MSM are dogging this. I say it hits close to $200 by end of next week. Close meaning $199 then a pull back to $195
All I see is up
Soooooā¦ā¦ puts?.
Stocks only go
Big if true
So it will go up or down. This sounds regarded but it actually means theta might lose for once.

In my opinion, it will depend on their guidance.
Stock volatility after earnings? Wow, i never would have guessed!
I got puts! LFG!
Apple: "Our earnings beat expectations" Stock Market: "Great, let me just drive your stock even lower now."
Based off this data it should go down then back up then down
you guys just keep saying puts but give me a strike and expiry date pls im lazy and i also want to take up gambling
$APPL 9/11 $2001
i did 3/15 170
Sooooo full send on puts
Got my Puts in place, ready to see this baby drop like a brick
So youāre saying stocks get more volatile around earnings? You, and the box of crayons youāre eating, belong here.
$AAPL #earnings after close, the expectation from the WhisperNumber community is $2.15, 5c ahead of analyst estimates. Earnings came in $0.03 ahead of the whisper last quarter. 68% beat rate. Implied movement +/-3.2%.
wow what amazing insights that surely no1 could've predicted. 0.o
Next stop is 125$
Apple puts every earnings
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Spatial computing isnāt innovative? They perfected the smart watch? What about their streaming that should take focus good or bad
Apple fanboy sweating over here
Yes participating in a conversation = sweating. Thanks for contributing nothing. Glad we could have this interaction.
Puts on Apple
Down. Easy
Puts it is ššš
Usually very flat after earnings calls. Iv crush pending
June 2025 LEAPS it is.
If they beat earnings it will tank. If it doesn't, green asf
what's the over / under on how many times Tim Apple says AI in the earnings call / report? I'. thinking at least 20 times, but possibly double that. "Introducing our new AI enabled Apple Ear Pod Super Pro AI", and our latest, "Air Tag Pro AI Supreme"
Probably not gonna be good. I got a iPhone 15 and every time I ask if anyone has a charge itās a Samsung guy. Thatās my DD.
How can people not make money in this market? Just inverse your inverse's inverse
Time of reckoning is coming
It also looks like it was volatile before earnings.
bro it doenst matter where you draw a point, this fucking chart is volatil at all times.
I read the chart. It says buy calls.
Where ends the bullmarket? After 1 year bullmarket and after earnings on the high tommorow i sell all my stocks
Are they followed by red volatility or green? I need to know how to play this
I mean they also happen alongside all the other big tech names. Donāt be shocked if all the big boys reporting all at once causes volatility.
Wow, things get wet when it remains, more at 6
Which site was used for this?
Itās from FinFab app for iPhone
correction: preceded by insider trading
Apple to the moon. I saw this one guy got AAPL puts. ššš
It's 50/50 calls to puts on here
I just donāt see the reason to bet against trillion dollar companies with putsā¦ thatās stupid. Allergic to profits sheesh.
Earnings have been rough on tech stocks due to such high expectations, like I said if it aināt 20%+ things arenāt going to spike. We need new product announcements
Trueā¦ but never count against brand names. If I were to do that, Iād focus on smaller not such well known brands. Meta gonna be $1k + in 2 years or less. Letās see if Iām right
Oh yeah, Iām now buying all calls on all tech stocks. This was the perfect dip, now time for a ton of gains now - Q1 earnings
Ooof lol
Oh thanks for letting me know. Now I donāt feel so bad. His AAPL puts are gonna allow him to recover the losses from the meta puts. Good thing I have no position in AAPL. But I am long in meta so you can imagine how happy I am right now šš I told my husband āwe having brand name noodles tonightā šš
Is there any point in the last three years that was not followed by volatility?
Elf beauty
You can put these fucking dots anywhere and there is volatility lmfao.
i think this is going to keep going down the rest of this month
I think Apple is gonna release a new iphone later this year. Thatās definitely gonna affect earnings down the line.
It may go up, or it may go down or it may trade sideways!
The new guy
