Jabil is ONE of the producers AAPL uses for 5C cases, and AAPL only accounts for about 20% of Jabil's business. Your sky is falling rhetoric misplaced, but expected. I'm actually happy to see you back on the board, you're a great contrarian indicator.
AAPL oversold now.
Mac sales will post nice yoy growth. Iphone 5S/5C a huge success. IPad sales a huge success. Further growth with CM deal. AAPL buying back shares hand over fist. Congrats longs.
The chart has been set nicely with a little churn. Shorts making a lot of noise today. AAPL moves up tomorrow. GLTA.
IPhone 5S a hit in China. Estimates put it accounting for 10-12% of sales this quarter, tripling current market share, now add a China Mobile deal in. GLTA.
Setting the chart up for a run next week. GLTA.
We could see an accumulation pattern until the China mobile deal is officially announced.Then I suspect we continue upward. GLTA.
Good time to be an AAPL long.
Big buying on the dips. Bullish sign.
They've put an ascending floor on the stock with the $60B buyback.....imo.
Sure, but in any promo run by Target, Walmart etc... the product is already paid for, hence the manufacturer's margins are unaffected.
From what I gather the cards being offered are towards a future Apple purchase or store purchase, thus AAPL's own margins won't be affected. On a side note towards sales, an Ebay exec said they were selling an Ipad per second on Friday. Sales are going to be strong this season.
By any metric used to value the current market AAPL should conservatively trade around $850 right now, but if everything was fairly valued there'd be no money to be made. GLTU.
530 break. Very nice.
Love 'em or hate 'em, they probably pushed AAPL to do a little more with its cash hoard than it had planned, hence the $60 billion buyback.
Indexes tanked after Uncle Carl stated he was cautious about the premium many stocks are trading at. We know he's long AAPL, but he's probably short the overall market.
Whole Naz is. One more search for suckers before they run it up again for a bull pennant breakout. Watch them run it up hard tomorrow.
It's much easier for funds to push momentum stocks like AMZN when the Fed money is flowing, once that faucet starts getting turned off they will push the companies with strong balance sheets and good free cash flow, and profits will matter again.
Stocks cycle from overpriced to underpriced. AMZN is near the top of it's cycle and AAPL just came off the bottom. You can only pump a growth story for so long.
Let's talk about EPS growth. Between its cash pile and its cash generation AAPL can take the company private in about 5 years, or boost earnings per share significantly, even with no new revenue growth. That's the kind of growth investors should be looking for.
They also hired Paul Deneve, CEO of luxury brand Yves St. Laurent. Apple has been making the moves to get into high end wearable tech IMO. They just don't do a lot of pot banging ala Jeff Bezos.
This is a confirmation of the IWatch IMO.
That's amazing to think they sold more IPads in one day than all last quarter. Talk about pent up demand.
Fed talks of tapering and AAPL pops. I've noticed this a few times now.
I'd pay the premium and roll them out longer. Although I have a longer term outlook when I buy options.
It looks like the setup of a shake n bake. Started with AH yesterday. GLTU.
Look for upgrades tomorrow. Just the way it works.
I like the numbers that came in today, a nice beat on the top and bottom line. Still beat estimates even after they were revised up. I like where we sit going into Q1 '14.
Agreed. Daytrading is nonsensical for retail because the price movements are nonsensical. All it is is hfts designed by streeters to look for second to second retail suckers.
Great trading opportunity for those that recognized the head fake. Hedgies won't even give you a kiss good night though.
AH can get tricky as you aren't guaranteed a fill. I'll call it in if I really want to make sure it gets done. GLTU.
Watch and learn. Hope none of the longs here got scared.
Wish we could be like some of these nonprofit tech companies that get rewarded for missing and negative EPS. Guess AAPL just makes too much money.
AAPL's problem is they make too much money. If they could only miss estimates like AMZN and be a nonprofit publicly traded company we'd be up.
After hours head fake in progress. Hedgies went after last minute suckers.
AAPL posted a better beat than GOOG did. I think they popped GOOG about 13% after hours. Just starting, I bet it comes back.
The Street only revised conservatively up for AAPL's earnings after AAPL filed the 8k. AAPL will crush earnings and raise guidance.
Hedgies had their mouth pieces out telling investors to "take profits", because they are concerned about you and your money. Earnings will be a huge beat, the street revised up after the 8k was filed but not by much.
Really thinking 600 this year. Initially bought some Jan 15 700 calls also for the homerun but 700 is looking like a done deal by 2015. IMO EPS will really take off in 2014, growth will return and the share structure will continue to shrink.
Q4 earnings will be great. Q1 '14 is where AAPL will be priced as a growth stock. GLTU.
