I was going to sell on monday... but didn't. Hoping for blowout in earnings. A solid round number like $10 per share earnings would be nice...

It has been doing that a lot lately around earnings. I was hoping the trend was getting old and "smart money" was no longer doing that...

It is up $40 in after-hours trading!!! Even at $460 it is VERY cheap!

I am actually inclined to agree with you. P/NTM EPS has compressed from 16.6x a year ago to 12.0x as of today. Even LTM P/E has compressed from 20x to 15x. I'm not sure I'd call that very cheap but its without question "cheaper" than it was last year.

Did you see what I just wrote bro? It said that it was overpriced a year ago. I know you don't understand the basic concept of relative valuation and can't differentiate between a good company and an overpriced stock though, I don't expect that to change now. Flame on.

For a tech stock it is VERY cheap. Especially with one with Apples growth. A lot of people think Apple cannot continue to grow like this but I would have to say they are wrong. Look at how many 4S phones were sold when it was essentially the same phone as the 4. When the iPhone 5 comes out its sales #s will be at least DOUBLE what the 4s sold. Not only that but the iPad 2 was also pretty much the same as the first iPad so when the iPad 3 comes out I expect its sales #s to be about 50% more than the ipad2s were. The real winner for Apple is going to be the new Apple TV though...just watch!!!

Eh, I don't really agree with a lot of that but I'm not going to belabor the point, every one is entitled to their own perspective. Apple threads invariably turn into e-cat fights at some point in time so I'll just hang out and watch the carnage. Right now its cheap to what its traded at historically and they crushed even the highest of revenue expectations. Props to them.

And you don't understand tech, which I do.

That's why everything I said 2 years ago has come to fruition re Apple in almost Nostradamus fashion and you are still unable to comprehend how the passage of time has proven that the joke of the MB made a joke of you.

Links for days.

Just stop being such a condescending a-hole and I'll stop popping in now and then to check your ego.

Other people are smart as well.

You're right, I'm a pompous arse who doesn't understand tech and you've never been wrong about anything, especially AAPL. I admit it.
