Looking at it now, $Apple(AAPL)$ is no longer the stock I used to think of as one you buy just because it's cheap. It's not that there's anything wrong with it now, but compared to the Apple I once knew, its high growth potential seems to have slowed.

In fact, the recent rise in Apple’s stock price isn’t driven by new products or outstanding earnings reports. Instead, it’s the underlying changes in the company’s operations that are driving the increase. The surge over the past two months is what’s truly pushing the stock up.

That said, I still bought a small amount of Apple stock—just a few thousand dollars. Apple has always been an important stock for me on Tiger Brokers, and I have a special connection to the company. I’ve witnessed its journey from a $1 trillion market cap, to $2 trillion, to $3 trillion. This time, I’m just here to see it reach $4 trillion. That’s all.

Go AAPL!
