AAPL Apple Computer: Valid concern with Pixar's options granting activities, continue to see this as potential overhang on AAPL shares - AmTech (66.98 ) -Update-

AmTech says they believe there is valid concern with Pixar's options granting activities, their analysis of SEC filings dating back to 1996 indicates that the co's compensation committee is run by an independent board who are not current or former employees of Pixar. More importantly, contrary to recent speculation, they do not see any indication that Steve Jobs was ever a member of the compensation committee at Pixar, nor has he been a recipient of options.

They do not view Pixar's options activities lightly and continue to see this as a potential overhang on AAPL shares. They recommend buying on weakness as they believe AAPL's competitive advantages and growth prospects remain among the strongest in large-cap tech.
