EOT trade alert September 5, 2014
September 5, 2014
Trade Alert:
Buy AAPL October 17th 2014 $105 Calls at $1.50 or better
Company Background:
Apple (AAPL) shouldn’t need an introduction… this tech giant is the world’s largest company by market capitalization.
Short-Term Catalyst:
It’s no secret what the catalyst is for Apple… they’re about to launch the iPhone 6.
The Apple event on September 9th will officially unveil the new iPhone and there could be some new stuff like the iWatch and iWallet.
Needless to say, expectations for the new iPhone are high. And the reaction to the new product will be a major factor in the stock price in the weeks ahead.
The best thing is AAPL’s stock just had its worst day in more than six month. The 4% selloff was sparked by Samsung unveiling a new tablet and a virtual reality headset that will be used with Facebook’s (FB) Oculus.
In short, the recent drop in AAPL looks like a great time to buy some call options.
