You should not be invested in aapl because you lack the understanding of the culture that makes them unique and the world's leader in innovation. AAPl sets the trends and doesn't work on the immediate gratification of Wall Street day traders. Sir Johnny Ives is the genius who will usher in a new set of products that will come some time this fall and once again aapl will be the darlings of Wall Street.
Investing in aapl is investing in a company not a stock for the short term. Imagine all the great minds trained in the House Of Jobs but dying to show their independence and unique skills apart from his dictatorship. The next products will be amazing.
10 mil s4's shipped in a month fantastic 5 mil iphone 5's in 3 days disappointing. A myth has been created that just won't hold for the long term. You can fool people for so long.
This stock is set up to lose 100 points in a New York minute.
Fingerprint technology phone on 5s and new ipads, China Mobile deal with lower priced phone and new computers with more speed and power. We could see $15 in Q1 and analysts all raising earnings for 2014.
Patience is a virtue.
Only the Apple design has taken the world by storm. Johnny Ives is cooking something real good and the world will once again see why Apple is the technology innovator of the 21st century.
Can you say back to new highs in w2014
Apple is leveraging its war chest to float bonds for pennies on the dollar while they buy their own shares that will double in three years. Money goes to money and when they see apple's new products in the fall oh baby can you say dividend and cap gains.
Samsung shot itself in the foot with all the junk on its new phone. Not only is it poor;y reviewed but it don't work as new users will find. Apple does things the right way and satisfaction is almost universal. This guarantees the next big thing will be widely bought by current users and new ones to come. Apple knows what they are doing and the 3k dividend is a nice marker while I wait.
As the Smartphone Ipad universe expands aapl locks in future buyers of their two main products and is the Trojan Horse for their entrance into Enterprise which grows daily. If you believe apple will improve their core products ie fingerprint rec for the iphone retina for the mini and computer line along with redesigned smaller sleeker ipad then it should be easy to see how apple expands their profits going forward. There is a perfect storm coming with China Mobile, Docomo, a smaller phone, an Iwatch and Itv all withn one short year.
Was a nice bonus to pay for my patience. Come this fall I'll be richly rewarded.
Look at who makes all the money in mobile and pads. Look at where all the ad money comes from. Look at the fragmentation and insecurity of the android platform. Finally look at all the growth yet for aapl to mine. The three great minds in investing say to look at the 3 to 5 year horizon and ask yourself "do I really tink aapl is done innovating based on the last 3 to 5 years?
With exponential growth in India and China along with maintaining the majority of sales in the US aapl will once again assume the mantle of a growth company. If they add one more product they will be $600 in a short time.
Every new I-phone has outsold the previous one and each time aapl gets new subs they lock in their base for future sales. We are in the early innings of a world transitioning to smartphones and aapl will compete to get their fair share.
I love aapl but that is a wrong PR
AAPL is about halfway to addressing the entire spectrum of possible smartphone buyers worldwide. Once you get an Iphone there is little chance you will switch. There is alos a great chance you will expand your apple product buying. This recurring revenue with each iteration. Of course aapl remains a growth product.
Inefficient market at its most glaring
Their secrecy allows for an unchallenged flood of misinformation that dries up every call, every margin buy and every institution having to justify every qtr. I'm just glad I don't need the money and can actually buy more come mid June.
