Apple Today - 07/09/2015 (AAPL)
seymour_greenz July 9th 2015 09:23:09 AMNASDAQ Futures are up substantially, +50 with +55 Fair Value, Dow Futures are up 171. This rally can be traced to some combination of China rebound, bear exhaustion, contrarian jobless data and Max Profit.
After a brutal day yesterday with AAPL sliding down over 3 points and over 2% there are signs of a reversal this morning. In pre-market, AAPL opened up quite a bit higher along with the Futures and has since been floating in the high 123s reaching a high of 124.14 at 7:14am. AAPL eased back down slightly from the pre-market high and is currently up 1.43 to 124. Some of this enthusiasm can be attributed to cheerful market conditions and optimism on early details of the iPhone 6s release.
Classic max pain comes in again at 126.
