Summary:
This week the buys continued and no sells were found. AAPL created a lot of buzz this week as earnings were less than impressive as iphone and ipad sales dropped just short of 20% year over year. They still made a killing and have a vault of cash but the stock market did not like the news. Dividend investors found some value there though as it was the 3rd highest trending stock this week. DIS and WFC still holding strong in the top positions.
