Shares of Apple Computer plummeted nearly $6 in after hours trading on Tuesday, losing over 11% of their value despite the company reporting the best quarterly results in its history.
However, the results still fell short of the extremely high investor expectations that have been baked into the company's stock price, which has recently traded at all-time highs.
As of 5:00pm eastern time, Apple stock was trading at $45.85, down $5.74 or some 11.13%.

"One more thing?" Hmmm.. Looks like they timed this perfectly.
Buy.
"It's too valuable, oh no!"
Buy.
My thoughts exactly, they did beat expectations but just not enough. Just your typical overreaction from analysts. Tomorrows event should be big, which is why it's tomorrow and wasn't at Paris.
The market is psycho.
