wow, so you went through several several splits too, did you not? Wasn't it trading $400+ before it did a 1:4 split like two years ago or something? ----- Original Message ----- From: Paul Stewart To: af@afmug.com Sent: Thursday, August 11, 2016 8:02 PM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Google fiber going microwave?
Yup .. and I sold out after much debate….$808 a share - originally bought at $293 so I’m happy… Also sold out of Apple shares this week - bought in at $1.03 (yup, back in 2002) and sold at $107 … really really happy about that return …. Not all my trades have this level of success but these definitely outweigh the losses many times over ;) >> On 8/11/16 17:30, Josh Reynolds wrote: >>> >>> "Shares of Google parent company Alphabet (GOOGL, Tech30) hit an >>> all-time high Tuesday of more than $813 a share.
