Apple soared on earnings to $175, subsequent price action has hardly seen any reaction so in my opinion Apple continues to trade on thin air at near a $3 trillion valuation trading on a PE near 29 with the market awaiting release of Iphone SE with 5G on March 8th, a lower cost version of the iphone for those who don't want to pay over $1000 for an iphone. Apple is a good stock but it trades on a nuts valuation, hence my exposure is a tiny 4% of target.

Apple may end up being the last man standing, the last stock to plunge, but plunge it shall! I won't be buying any significant exposure to Apple above $150, and probably not much between $140 to $150. For me to buy Apple big it needs to fall below $140, My original buying level was $128, which was chosen for good reasons and why it may yet prove to be around which I do the bulk of my buying of Apple stock. But I will buy a fair chunk of Apple at $140. The downside risk is a for a slide to $115. Maybe I will do a test and only buy 15% at $1.40 and wait for $125 before doing any further big buys, $125 would place the stock on a PE of of about 19.3 against current 26.5.
