YES with 200 million shares short and the shorts pinning their hopes on a massive market correction, this week when we hit $35.00 expect a 10% plus jump on Tuesday afternoon as the Xbox 720 show gets underway.
WE will close on new 5 year highs each day this week.

AAPL's earnings for the current Quarter will be down 21.5% Y0Y while the rev. estimate are kept constant....
IF the rev. estimates to be taken seriously, that means AAPL's margins are shrinking at an alarming rate, they are NOT a growth company nor are innovating and are MAINLY competing on price on their ONLY two ex-cash cow products, iPhone and iPad....
SO as Mr. Softy gets the Surface and WP-8 sales revved up, there will be more pain and misery for iEinhorn and iSheeps alike.
SO AAPL is heading to $200.00 by Q3/2013 and that's all but certain.

Sounds like he was fired after his employers got a margin call and jumped off the Windows 8 platform.

Another dumb post from the village idiot....
THE $500 billion question is that MSFT has taken ownership of its software and protected its users be it the XP, Vista or W-7, while Goofle and Android lackies are no were to be found....
AND that is why Windows 8 was developed to do away with all malware, virus protection and all that Jazz.

Security firm Trend Micro has predicted the number of threats targeting the Android mobile operating system will pass the one million mark by the end of 2013.
The increase would represent a near tripling of the number of threats currently known to be targeting Android.
Trend Micro reported that at the end of 2012 it had detected roughly 350,000 threats targeting Google's operating system.
The figure means that it has taken Android just three years to boast the same number of threats it took Windows XP 14 years to reach.
"2012 was a year of real evolution in traditional threat and evolution into new platforms and geographies," said Trend Micro vice president of security research, Rik Ferguson.

I have looked at Mr. Softy for 10 years and listened to investors complaining about the stock's performance along the way till early in 2013 as my value model alerted me that MSFT is a screaming STRONG BUY and I took a substantial position at $26.50....
THEN I bought Windows-8 with Intel's i5 processor from DELL and what a great set up....
IF anyone uses Windows 8, they will NOT touch anything else as it is fast, secure, and has great sound and video with excellent features and Apps.

THE village idiot posted another dumb article today and here is a great take on how wrong Einhorn was and still is on APPL (here is an interesting excerpt):
"This was the more revealing takeaway from David Einhorn`s whining on CNBC over his stuck Apple position, and throwing Amazon under the bus in the process. The more these guys go on air, whether it is Carl Icahn, Bill Ackman, or David Einhorn the less attractive these guys appear for managing money.
For an activist that is so fond of finding good short ideas, the fact that David Einhorn and Greenlight Capital happened to miss the best short setup of the year is hilarious, and it is not something I would want to advertise on CNBC.
The bigger question to come out of all of this Apple Cash nonsense is why didn`t Greenlight Capital sell out of their entire position at $700 a share? The next question is why wasn`t GreenLight Capital shorting Apple at $700 a share? Did they view Apple as a Growth or value opportunity at over $700 a share?"

Another stupid post from the flunky village idiot....
Einhorn was pimping AAPL at $700 and bashing MSFT at the same time....
SO he is losing his shirt on AAPL and was dumb enough to get out of MSFT at the wrong time as we are up 21% in 20 trading days, averaging over 1% per day....
SO the evidence shows he has made the wrong call and the media Trolls are using a proven wrong move to celebrate his bad judgement.....
Kind of stupid and strange....
Einhorn has been in a #$%$ match with Ballmer, but as iPad and iPhone sales plummet in the next two quarters and AAPL trades around $200.00, he similar to Heather Bellini will be eating a lot of crow.

YES AAPL's stock is being held up by $100 billion of buyback as MSFT is up by over 21% in the last 20 trading days after our earnings release in April, which makes it 1% per day on the average (not bad at all)....
AND all this is happening while we are fighting off all the Trolls in the media and Wall Street and on a backdrop that Bill Gates selling tons of share to fund his Charity work as he has regained the title for the richest man in the world once again....
YOU see when we trade over $50.00, MSFT will be worth over $400 billion and Bill Gates over $100.00 whopping billions....
Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy!
AS for Motley's, Goofle was their Pump target last week and APPL will be in the coming week.

Folks there has been much speculation why all of a sudden there is no more hype on Fort Knox as it is being tested again before it goes to the Carriers for further de-bugging....
IF you remember, back in Jan 2103, DoD awarded MSFT a near $700 million contract for Windows 8 Licenses and Office 365 software et al..... SO Goofle and Android camp made some noise so the DoD later announced that Samsung Android devices will be eligible to run on DoD's IT system and that caused a lot of celebration and fanfare by Android's fanboys....
I was skeptical as we are in the middle of a Cyberwar and how in God's name we can open a back door to the Bad guys, till I read the commentary at Apple Insider that the MAIN condition is that the staff are ONLY allowed to download Apps from the DoD's own Apps store, which basically means that the smart folks at the Pentagon have forced Samsung to close the OS by using Fort Knox.
SO there goes all that phony enthusiasm as Windows 8 is already approved and we will be selling a lot of WP-8 to the USG and all the related agencies.

Aside from all the new integration of Xbox with TV, Online Video Streaming and Cable/Satellite hookups, the most interesting development is Microsoft SmartGlass Apps integrating Xbox with Mobility devices such as Tablets and Smartphones.

AND no one is counting the NEW revenues from Surface Pro/RT/7" replacing iPad, WP-8 getting revved up killing Android, increasing Apps inventory, monetizing Skype, Office 365 becoming standard worldwide, Cloud catching fire, Xbox going ballistic, Bing gaining market share and YES Windows 8.1 getting the job done.
ADD to that the Surface Phone killing iPhone and you have the makings of a perfect storm.
AS I wrote before, "when Mr. Market decides we are a growth company again", I expect P/E multiple in the range of 20-25 and you can do the math with $4-4.50 a year of earnings prospects.

Another clueless post from the resident village idiot, a high school dropout nonetheless....
You see sonny, a lot of these comments are coming from developers who moonlight as reporters as they don't have enough work and lack the skills to write code in C++, C# or in Objective-C and are used to Android's Java junk language....
Also none of these geniuses have the guts to spell out how they are going to root-out malware from Apps in a free for all open-source OS world as Intel is beginning to sense with Tizen that open source is a bad idea especially if no one is determined not to mind the shop as is the case with Goofle's Ponzi scheme.

IT also seems Microsoft is going to make the Xbox Extravaganza last two weeks till the Gamers' trade show, so the market excitement will take us to the end of May 2013 and get the investors and analysts all excited and focused on the "Vast Financial Impact" that Xbox-720 will have on our earnings for years to come that includes Video Streaming and Xbox-TV over and above "Exclusive Games and Features" of Xbox-720.
BTW this AM I tried my X-box Music on Windows-8 and the selection and Quality is second to none.

The new Xbox will be unveiled in two stages and release this holiday, a Microsoft executive has revealed. Microsoft's Aaron Greenberg said that the platform will be unveiled on May 21, while 'tons of exclusive games' will be shown at the E3 gaming expo.
"We're really going to tell one story across two events," Greenberg told Major Nelson (via VideoGamer).
"So we're going to start on the 21st, and really that's about revealing the next Xbox platform; our vision for the future of games, the future of entertainment.
"We definitely have a lot of surprises planned. I know everyone knows the Infinity Ward team is hard at work on world premiering Call of Duty: Ghosts, so we're going to see what that looks like for the first time.
"That's why we're inviting people to campus; we're going to bring them behind the scenes a little bit."
Greenberg said that while the May 21 event is about laying the foundations, E3 will be focused on the software.
"We've never done this before and so it's really exciting to be able to do that. It's a lot of laying the foundation, the best way to describe it. And then just a couple of weeks later we go to E3," he said.
"E3 is all about the games. At E3, if you're a gamer, it's going to be tons of exclusives, world premieres, and obviously even beyond that we have a lot to share between then and this holiday."
Reported features for the new Xbox include Kinect 2.0, 3D technology and the long-rumored Xbox TV.

Not a problem....
You see the most interesting thing in the past several days was that the shorts tried to manipulate before and after hours trades, they even committed fraud and were caught by NASDAQ, and we closed at or near the day's high, with today the last trade was the highest in over 5 years....
I make a point of looking at the trades of the last minute before the close, when the big traders buy/sell 10% of the daily volume, and the tape goes absolutely wild....
In short, no pun intended, the shorts are stressed out while the longs feel confident, are hanging on and are adding on the dips....
There is also no question that MSFT has some chronic naysayers/shorts, and for whatever reason they fail to read the current dynamics correctly and my sense is that they will be shaken out next week as Xbox-720 and T-Mobile shows get underway as we may see a couple of days of 100 million plus trades to set a new trading range over $40.00 till further developments.
