Funny story, on 7/10/20 about two weeks before the split was announced I wrote $382.50 calls expiring the same day I wrote them. AAPL closed over that price, and the calls were exercised. Luckily I got back in on 7/14 when the stock pulled back a little. Man, that could have been a real blunder if my timing was a little worse!
My very confused mother called me this evening, trying to make sense of the AAPL split. She has challenges in general listening without her mind wandering, or interrupting and jumping to her next question, which can make conversations frustrating. I think (hope) I was able to help her understand there's no additional increase in total $$$ as a result of the stock split, but we'll see if I get another call asking. The good news is she has shares, she's not selling them, and stock has performed beautifully.
AAPL and TSLA should both continue moving upward after their splits. I'm not touching TSLA as I still think their stock price is a mirage, but I'm happy to pick up some AAPL at this level even though as you say, the actual value of the company hasn't changed.
Back in the green as of 3:15, nice come back Tim Apple.
