Growth stock has a very specific meaning. A $640B company is not a growth stock.

A dip of what ... 5%? 10%? 25%? Attempting to time the market is fruitless. Pick a stock that fits your criteria and sit on it.
I'm really not attempting to give you a hard time, but your questions and posts are starting to become a bit pedantic.
I'm sorry as a new investor I missused the word 'growth' I was refering to dividend growth, current concensus of AAPL dividend growth for next year is around a 12% increase, double the dividend growth of any of my current stocks.
I'll take your point on trying to time the market. I don't see how taking an interest in market events and dividend stocks are pedantic though, I have concerns and am seeking to learn how to address these concerns by seeing what others think.
