Stocks Will Continue to Erode In This Busted Economy

Adding to my comment above, I could understand how this can be overlooked. Sites such as yahoo finance sometimes incorrectly state their variables. This can be result of lag time in updating the variables. Apple was trading at about 3.5 times their book value when they were trading closer to $110.00.

Just thought I would point out that your book value for Apple is incorrect. How can their "tangible book value" be 3.6 when Apple currently trades at only 3.007 times its cash position. Apple has 24.5 billion in cash, and no debt. Unless their real estate holdings have negative value, then your book value is understated. Apple is probably trading closer to 2.2 times its book value right now.
