$Apple(AAPL)$ has a reputation for being a good capital allocator. Consider that the company has repurchased more than $550 billion worth of its own stock at an average purchase price (on a split-adjusted basis) of just $47. The program "has been incredibly successful." Adding to its capital-return efforts, the company has paid out a dividend since 2012, increasing it every year.

In addition to its value-creating capital-return program, the company is known for being a penny-pincher when it comes to acquisitions, decreasing the risk of Apple overspending on assets. Apple's largest public acquisition was Beats Electronics for $3 billion in 2014.

Even back then, however, this was a drop in the bucket for the company.

It looks as though Apple may fall lower as panic-selling increases. So many gutless investors are lacking in confidence.

I'll pick up some of those dumped Apple shares but I don't expect to get positive returns from Apple anytime soon.

I don't expect Apple to recover early next year as China production will be very difficult if the Covid infection rates increase exponentially.
