I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if AAPL has already seen its all time high for the foreseeable future. In fact, if I were a betting man, and I certainly am, I'd put money on that, which I certainly will. In a year or two I expect AAPL's stock chart to look a whole lot like RIMM's. Remember RIMM? Who?
You think it'll hit that low? Would it be smart to buy a whole lot of APPL if it went for under $100?
The only similarities RIMM and AAPL have is a healthy amount of cash and no debt. Their place and philosophy in the tech/mobile world, however, couldn't be more different.
didn't know dude was gay, is that for real? that bodes well for the future of product design at apple, it is a fact that the gheyz are great at this---> j/k people hating on apple, and jobs in particular (even when he's seriously ill), is sociopathic. rooting for and against sports teams is cathartic and rooted in A FREAKING GAME. but, who the hell cares what device someone else uses to make a phone call or type a message on this board? get a life losers.
The similarity between AAPL and RIMM is that they were both once at the top of the hill. Their difference is RIMM is now at the bottom, while AAPL is only just on its way.
Some people have careers caring about what device someone uses to make a phone call or type a message
Oh wow seriously? Damn where the hell have I been? He's been living 7 years with it? Man I guess no money can buy health from cancer.
and some people have careers caring about what trans fat laden bag of chips people are eating. what is your point?
There is no point to prove. I just felt your last little comment was unnecessary. "Get a life losers" lol.
He had a rare form of cancer, he had a liver transplant. He announced he was taking medical leave in January. I don't know if he ever confirmed it as a cancer relapse, but that was certainly the assumption. He will probably succumb to it eventually, which is very unfortunate for one of the most brilliant businessmen to ever walk the planet.
Doesn't even look like we will have that since everybody knew this was coming at some point. AAPL is down 1.38% while the rest of the market is down .99%.
This is why I didn't buy Apple stock recently, although I was very tempted. Jobs is so joined at the hip with the persona of Apple, Inc., that his departure has to have a very negative impact on the stock. I think that will continue, with some ups and downs, of course, until (if!) the new management has proven to be up to the task of keeping what made the enormous success of Apple possible... thinking outside the box, and producing quality products that consumers fall all over themselves to buy. And that may take a long time. Perception can, at times, be everything. For the public, Steve Jobs is Apple.
