The title I set was "AAPL -10%" but for some reason it was truncated to "AAPL".

Background TL;DR: disappointing Q1 report.

> disappointing Q1 report

Did Gruber read a different report because he seems to think they broke all sorts of records this quarter. He's pretty impartial about Apple, right? :)

Apple broke records for quarterly sales and profit with $54.5 billion in sales and $13.1 billion in profit in the quarter ended Dec. 29.

That is strange. I saw this when it was first posted and the title was "AAPL -10%". Seems you've fallen victim to some Mod trickery.

Cause seems to be lower iPhone sales than were expected: http://abcnews.go.com/Business/aapl-aapl-apple-sells-48-mill...

That'll be because everyone's got one now...

More seriously, YTD is not pretty.

I'm not sure I follow this. A like to Google quoting Apple's stock price?

Apple stock is down (currently) at -9.70% in after hours.

Ahh, I see now: "After Hours: 460.49 -53.52 (-10.41%)"

So the news is the stock quote? I got it now...

what?
