David Trainer's $240 Apple Price Target Analysis Just Doesn't Add Up [View article]
It is all on the assumptions. If they are flawed the result is flawed. It appears that Trainer may know numbers but he does not understand Apple and the market they created. Therefore he cannot come up with reasonable assumptions.
Apple's Shareholder Program: The Day The Music Died [View article]
Poor analysis because it gives no viable alternatives. The concept that it gives the wrong signal is just plane ignorant. It is in reality just a reflection on how profitable Apple is. That is a good thing not a bad thing for investors.

Very good analysis. Rumors control now. Which is quite amusing since most are far from reality. One rumor last week said Foxcom is adding 10,000 workers, supposedly for an Apple built out a new product. Other rumors talk about delay in product launches.
I believe most of the estimates that form the consensus the author referred to are based on Weege boards as few if any supply sources or verifiable facts in coming up with their estimates. They are all trying to close the "barn door" long after the horse left. They were wrong before and will be just as wrong again.
Very poor logic. Google is growing fast with an inferior product that is going to raise up and bite them in the ". " as it has no review. When something comes out really bad they will get blamed.

Very good article except I have seen several break down reports on the mini that showed the mini had a higher margin than the iPad. Therefore, the lower margin analysis based on a "lower margin mini" is in question.
Apple: When Negatives Can Be Positives [View article]
Very good article. What people fail to realize is that Apple was more of an evolution company than a revolution company under Jobs. Apple did not invent the mpg player they just made a superior one in the iPod. They did not invent the smart phone that just made a superior one in the iPhone. They did not invent the tablet they just made a superior one in the iPad. They do not really invent they just make it better. When I see Apple's stock and I see Amazon's stock price I scratch my head and just laugh. Has the market learned nothing from sky high PE's of the dot com bubble? Amazon has shown they can grow sales but has never shown they can make money. Money or profit is whart it is all about. Apple has proved it can make money. Amazon has not.

Thank you for putting together facts. Few articles on Apple do. Most just present rumors or articles devoid of real facts or logic. When I see Amazon and Google compared to Apple I know right now most analysis tha t write on these have little understanding of the field.
Your statement about individual investors and online investing is somewhat misleading. The vast, vast, number of individual investors do not invest online. I am an individual investors and know dozens and dozens like myself. None of us are online investors. When buying small lots we are punished by the brokerage houses. I know no one that has bought 5, 10, 20 or even 50 shares of Apple because of this.
A ten for one stock plot would truly be magical. It would put the 100 share round lot within the budget of so many Apple product lovers. They would buy and hold as they love Apple. This could take the stock out of the control of speculators, hedge fund, ETFs, etc.
A Cheaper iPhone Would Confirm A Lack Of Innovation And Declining Margins At Apple [View article]
Another dumb "Weege Board" analysis based not on facts but on faulty logic rumors and speculation. The writer admits the new lower cost iPhone information is bases on rumor and speculation. He has no real facts. He complements the retina display and then says Apple has no innovation. He is obviously an Apple Bear. He preaches yes but negative. I have no doubt Apple could blow out the quarter and this author would preach that as a negative.
