Time to Sell Apple

The company will live on and changes at the top will make it stronger. Speed bumps occur in life and in companies. Great men and great women get great things going, and other great people improve what has gone on before. Uncertainty has plagued Apple all year, and now it has been replaced with the cruel reality of serious illness for Steve. Hopefully he will recover, and live a long and happy life. Perhaps it is not in his or Apple's best interest for him to return to his position. Only he can make that decision, but in the meantime, Apple will move forward with sound leadership, and in my judgement, it will continue to prosper. Steve carefully surrounded himself with quality people, and they will continue to get the job done. The upcoming quarterly report will be proof of the continued soundness of investing in Apple.

MacWorld Step Is Yet Another Positive for Apple

Amen!

Should Apple Investors Feel Good About Yesterday's Rally?

No one can time the buy--the market is in control. Cost average over the months ahead, and you should be fine. Just don't jump in with both feet until a steady up trend takes hold.

Can You See Apple Under $60?

Hey, lets not forget the big boys in the hedge funds are still unloading all of their profitable stocks, and that they will reload when the turn comes and the market climbs back up. Apple has been down before witness a year ago when it dropped from $200 to $85 and bounced back up in the 190's again. You are right Zach, Apple is getting a ride south because of the market, not because it is losing market share or its innovative edge. It will return to higher levels when we get through this worst of times. Hang on for the long ride and you will be handsomely rewarded!

Reading Apple: iPhone Sales Slightly Off, MacBook OK

I'm with you all the way Andy. Our store in Grand Rapids, Michigan has been hopping every day. The teenagers can't get enough product. If they want to be part of the in crowd they must have iPods, iPhones and notebooks! Their parents are into the Macs pretty heavily as they are migrating away from the ad ware/spy ware troubles with the PC's. Saving money in the long run by buying a Mac, because they need not buy antivirus products!

Will Apple's Q1 2009 Revenue Estimates Be a Blowout?

Extremely well done again Andy! Great analysis with reason for us long Apple to hang on for the ride back up. Those of us that work in schools know how the kids are gobbling up the new colored ipods, and how they just have to have an iphone, because all of their friends are getting one--please, please, Mom and Day, buy me one for Christmas.

Will the MacWorld Expo Apple Stock Correlation Continue?

Interesting article. Strong earning adds to the upside as well. Plus a lot of buying by the mutual funds and hedge funds at that time of year also contributes to the annual run up. Judging by the last couple of days volume and uptick it appears the big boys are starting to nibble on Apple again. My guess is that it will be running up slowly as it has in the past with a peak around the end of December or early January.
