    Trial should end Dec 2021. I'll try to keep a look out, but @ me as well if you find an entry for the next pre-result run.

    APPS down 12.5% today despite no news. Frustrating, and makes me wonder wth is going on.

    Not buying yet as its still $5 above my avg price.

    Yup - I've been looking for an entry point and am tempted. I figure the market is due for a pullback so I'm hesitating on pulling the trigger...story of my investing life.

    i think all of us can empathize hehe. honestly i think trying to time it is a crap shoot. market does what it wants. Since reporting good earnings on 1 June, APPS tanked for 2 days to $62 for no reason i can ascertain, then ran up to $81 a few days ago. Over the last month there's been no news, nothing has changed, it's the same company. Avg price target from analysts is above $100. *shrug*

    IBM drops 7 pt, ~ 5%, today on the news that its President Whitehurst (former head of Red Hat) is leaving the co.
    but he will remain as a senior advisor.
    this is the first senior mgmt re-shuffling under IBM CEO's Arvind Krishna watch,

    imo, just an over-reaction.

    placed an order to sell this bullish put spread for $2.6 credit, defining my max risk of $2.4
    Aug 140/135 Put spread

    lol. not an expert on android world, but my plain english reading of that is it affects play store apps only, it doesn't say that other app stores can't continue using APKs and avoid the other baggage that APBs bring. we'll see. terrible week for me.

    @Dream Sequence this was posted on Yahoo finance conversations tab for APPS. No way to verify, but I'd like to believe it's true lol.

    I think I'll pick up some shares for 1/2 my position (which always ends up being my entire position lol). Thanks!
