Apple Today 07/21/2015 Earnings (AAPL)
seymour_greenz • July 21st 2015 08:54:15 AM
Good Morning,
NASDAQ Futures are up 5 with +6 Fair Value, Dow Futures are down 50. Verizon (VZ) report impresses, supposedly boding well for AAPL. IBM revenue falls for 13th straight quarter.
AAPL continued its command performance yesterday, rising to nearly 133 before settling for a 2.5 point gain, just under +2%. This morning in pre-market, AAPL again opened up higher on earnings "optimism" and reached a top of 133.28 just after 7am, seemingly in conjunction with the impressive VZ results. AAPL has since been ping-ponging between lower 133s and upper 132s. AAPL is currently up 85 cents to 132.92 as we approach the open.
Classic max-pain is 125 on this Apple earnings day. Apple reports after the bell.
It's showtime...
