Apple's Steve Jobs Isn't Sick - Argus

Indeed, I'm waiting for the big (market) leg down before I make the dive. Now, assuming his health is really getting worse, since all humans fall sick anyway, I bet there will be additional downward pressure on it.

Apple's Steve Jobs Isn't Sick - Argus

Companies like Apple and Berkshire (just as an example) have been saddled by the fame of one person. Personally, I would not worry about Jobs' health, but the market is based on sentiment, and any ripple, however small or false will dent the stock price in the short term. I would preferably buy the share if Apple starts spreading the (Jobs') work around as a pseudo succession plan. It might cause a small chink in the armor, having less of Jobs showing around, but its a better indication that the investor is covered.

Cramer's Stop Trading! Goldman Has Nothing Better to Do (12/15/08)

I cant wait till the cat is out of the bag that these companies served no more than their own pockets without benefitting the clients they are paid to serve. Goldman's analysis has no more value than another person's guess which is of lesser and lesser value. Cramer does provide some comedic value though

Apple Analysts Reality Check: Bear Rally Is Over

im personally holding short etfs, but i wouldnt short apple. the only reason they will suffer is because of the economy and their price tier, but else, i think they are a good company for the long term. like many apple longs that commented here, the personal agenda of the writer is questionable and imo, every recommendation should be taken with a pinch of salt. there are simply too many analyst out there who should lose their job for their repeatedly erroneous calls and the fact that the financial companies are still keeping so much dead weight is no confidence builder imo.
