$Apple(AAPL)$  Apple stock is a gem to own especially if you are an Apple person owning all gadgets Apple. I, for one am not one, yet I love to trade AAPL for the simple reason that it iswell- loved worldwide especially iys Iphones, which never fail to enchant its followers. Buying AAPL on the dips is a no brainer indeed.  When iy was abelow 175 months ago, I picked up some shares, waited patiently and sold off when it hit 180ish. When it hit 190, again I buy back on the dips at 180ish and made good profits letting them go at 190ish. Now yet again AAPL hit a low of 187 after hours and buying on the dips, hold for the stock to break 200 at  its earnings call tomorrow would likely pay off. Lets be patient and
