Why shorting APPL is not be profitable

$Apple(AAPL)$Apple's short position was $18.4 billion as of Wednesday ET, ahead of Tesla's $17.4 billion short position. There is no doubt that Apple has become the largest short-selling target in the US stock market.

In the past three months, Apple's stock price has risen by nearly 20%, and the overall performance has far exceeded the market. For customers who have Apple 13, in fact, Apple 14 is not very attractive. It can only be said that for the iPhone 12, 11, 10, and 9 before 13, it is indeed good to change the phone under the same price. The key is that it has not been released yet, and the market spot has already started to increase in price.

Riding a bull and watching a bear, I feel that the real logic of shorting this time is the fall of US stocks. Judging from the surprise of Apple's press conference this time, Apple is bound to win in recent years. As long as the US stock market reverses, this batch of air force shorting Apple may be played! The key is that Apple CEO Tim Cook appeared in the US Senate building, and it seems that Apple has another "killer move" to appear.

    AAPL's growth is not as good as it was in previous years, so it is normal for someone to short it.

    Major loss for those who short Apple and Tesla. Buy buy buy. Up up up.
