  1. Clearly AAPL is in the midst of an overdue “upwards correction.” A TOST analysis corrected for PBAJ (towards BUN) suggests a dip in the next two months followed by an even larger ramp up.

  2. I can’t believe Apple is worth nearly double Microsoft’s market cap. This is amazing such a short period after overtaking Microsoft last year. Woohoo!!!! Go Apple!!!!

      1. It’s those ample dividends that shareholders love that keep driving Microsoft stock higher and also the anticipation of the world’s first Windows 8 tablet that will dethrone the iPad for good. Consumers desperately need a tablet that can run Microsoft Office like a “real PC” and not some toy to play Angry Birds with. Wall Street is sure that Apple and Microsoft’s market caps will switch positions upon the introduction of the Windows 8 tablet.

  3. I hope Wall Street doesn’t notice AAPL stock hit another record because they will punish AAPL with a large sell off and ‘take profits’ off the table.

    My BRD and BTR analysis indicates that AAPL is likely to fall off the table and land in a BTR downside.

  4. I wonder if part of Apple’s success is just that they don’t run the business on Windows. Maybe they could do anything, and they’d be more successful than a Windows-running competitor.

    I do find Windows is good for gaming, since most game are Win-only or the Mac version is delayed by…years, but that’s finally, actually changing. If that continues, and graphics cards go all the way, too; I’d finally be rid of Windows.

  5. Uh, oh. Apple has hit a set ceiling and is on it’s way down. Everyone that ever wanted an Apple product has already bought one. Oddly enough, I heard those words about two years ago.

    I remember the first iPad and how no analyst could believe Apple would sell three million iPads in one full year. Everything Apple did went against the laws of possibility, yet it happened again and again which almost shows that Apple has not come close to an upper limit of product sales. Of course, Wall Street still doesn’t believe it, so nothing has changed over the years except for Apple’s wealth. Oh, well, let the P/E compression begin anew.
