How Apple's Market Share Will Propel Stock to $500, Part 2

@Constable Odo

The problem with Apple share is it's the shorts' favourite stock and has been for years. They made and make great profits all the time. These shorts also have analysts on their side helping them with damning reports such as those of Kathy Huberty and Toni Sacconaghi and a slew of tech bloggers like Scotts Moritz, etc..Remember how Cramer outlined his idea of shorting Apple shares on the Daily Show.

Some companies like RIMM and AMZN are loved by the wall street crowd and they will at the slightest excuse push their prices up - don't you find it amazing that AMZN P/E is 70 and they are not fazed by it whereas Apple at 30 people are already complaining.

I too get annoyed when Apple cannot hold their shares above $200 but then with all the forces against Apple I am surprise they are holding pretty well above $190.

Apples to Apples: Will History Repeat Itself as Android Gains on the iPhone?

The iPhone's firmware can be upgraded to stay relevant. Let's see whether the android phones can also do it.

How Apple's Market Share Will Propel Stock to $500, Part 1

My take on this is Apple will be more than just a computer company so basing your judgement on the computers which they are producing now may not do justice to what Apple can achieve in a few years time.

If I am correct their server farm has a part to play in the future plans of Apple as a total computer, communication and entertainment platform.

Apple vs. Microsoft: Who Will Bring the Ideal Mobile Productivity Device?

What insight - "Well, I don’t think it’s as powerful or as compelling a consumer product as the Courier"

You have not even seen what Apple is doing and you can come to this kind of conclusion.

As I have been saying if bloggers are really good they would and should be writing great softwares and inventing hardwares and not guessing.

Apple Apps' Incredible Success Has Many Marketing Implications

Isn't it strange when Apple rejected the craps of farts, the whole tech community was up in arms bad mouthing Apple for rejecting them and now these craps are being billed as craps in the App Store and giving it a bad name.

Frankly I wonder who are to blame for these craps, the buyers, tech bloggers criticizing Apple on the approval process or the hoping to get rich developers, etc..

Buying Apple Today: Like Buying Microsoft in 1998?

Everyone here sounds like a financial analyst sprouting all sorts of expert advice or guesses where the company stock price is heading.

I really don't know myself but I just buy Apple stocks because I have faith in Apple that they will keep coming out with great products.

With only 4% of the world's computer market and 13% of the smartphones market they have huge potentials. Not forgetting the ecosystem of tying all the products together and an OS that laid the foundation for future potential expansion and last but not least the $1B server farm in NC. Is Apple clueless about where they are going?

With their proven track records and vested interests I don't mind putting my bets on Apple.

Why I Prefer McDonald's over Apple

Lately a lot of tech pundits had been trying to bring down the share price of Apple, I wonder what is their agenda?

Microsoft: Whistling in the Dark

Who cares about market share, not me.

You guys can keep your market share, I prefer the company stock price to keep going up like Apple.

Why Apple Isn't Making iTunes Available for the Palm Pre

We are not jealous of the Pre success if there is one, its upgrade path is limited and will probably look at where the iPhone is going.

The Pre team always be a follower and always looking out for missing features in the iPhone so they can one up the iPhone but for them to innovate ,I am sorry to say, they simply have no idea where to go.

But then to each his good.

How Much Are Apple's 45 Million Users Worth?

@Jack Dee

No get to get so uptight, this is an opinion piece not the gospel type.

it may come true or not does not matter much unless one is holding Apple stocks then they would want it to come true - which may.

If Yahoo Adopts Microsoft's Bing for Search, What Value Will It Still Have?

The end of Yahoo not as we know it but the real end.

So those who own Yahoo shares, it is the best time to sell, why, because Bing belongs to you know who. And can Yahoo rely on the bunch of free apps? Your guess is as good as mine.

Does Verizon Really Need the iPhone?

The question to ask is do Apple need VZ?

The churn rate is low because of the contracts the subscribers had signed with VZ and they also inherited 13 millions customers from Alltel (without which ATT would have the most subscribers).

VZ cripple phones to save bandwidth and most of their users don't surf the net because of the crappy user experience. Wit the iPhone VZ may also experience the same problem as ATT because of the consumption of bandwidth.

And why should Apple make a CDMA phone when there is no future in its future?

By the way selling in other markets more than make up for the loss of sale without VZ.

Does Flip Have a Chance in an iPhone World?

The video is part of the larger scheme of things for Apple.

They have the software for almost everything we need for computing and it is only a matter of time before they start to port everything over to the iPhone platform.

The iPhone platform is most ideal for cloud computing, switch on the hardware, open an app and start working anywhere and anytime.

Yes they control the whole widget.

Apple Sours: Analysts Doubtful of iPhone's Prospects

These guys or should I say clown are truly amazing.

They tooted that Apple should make netbooks because that's where the market is but netboooks are good for market share but lousy at making money.

Then they say Apple should cut the price of their computers then they say their margins will be hit.

They say iPhone should be sold at $99 and now they say it is not good enough.

They are a schizophrenic bunch who talk rot and yet make a great living and all their wrong guesses which impact the market are not taken to task by the SEC.

Apple Wins Over Analysts Following Impressive Q2 Earnings

Gross margin heading south?

When you pay cash for components you can command a much better price than others.

I am still trying to figure out how RIMM manage to keep their gross margin at 40%.
