When you say long term, what do you mean? 1 year? 5 years?

I'm thinking of buying a few shares and then selling within the next 18 months. WIth the coming release of the iPhone 5, redesigned macbooks and iMacs, rumored smaller iPad, and rumored flat screen panel TV I could see the short term for AAPL being astronomical. As has been stated many times here and elsewhere, it would be impossible for AAPL to see the kind of growth they are seing now in the long run, so that's why I'm thinking of buying now and selling around this time next year. Is this a retarded strategy iyo?

I could see all of these being catalyst for Apple's further growth. I don't think holding the stock for 12-18 is a bad idea at all. I would maybe buy a small position ahead of earnings. Small.

Also, you list good reasons for buying the stock, if it runs up I wouldn't sell it till those reasons you bought it no longer exists, you need the $$, or you want to protect big gains. But generally speaking you need a good reason to sell or buy.

Stupidly or not, I added to my position today. 1 share but still...
