You think Apple's stock isn't also driven by speculation, just like any other stock?

I bought back when it was pre-$15/oz. Though, for awhile it was fun to think I had $100,000 in my floor safe. But it's not a speculative investment, that's my "bribe my family's way out of the country" money.

If anything, I hope it falls low again, I haven't been buying any junk silver the last few years and I should have been doing that.
