Apple, Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL)

It's AAPL. Tons of cash, which I view as a positive contrary to a lot of folks I guess. Cash flow that is just unbelievable. Still plenty of innovation left in this puppy. WAY depressed stock price for no sound reasons I can find.

they told me to buy it so I did aapl greatest company in with world right now buy aapl stop sell it sell dell hpq out dated companys now like apple like forist gup

Finally bought it at $422 in real life.

dropped too much to pass up

Pros: Apple has a hardcore fan base. They have been constantly innovating and creating new products, while taking market shares away from competitors. Rumors of increasing dividend for shareholders.
Cons: Tim Cook is more of a manager than an innovator. Biggest competitor, Google, is taking market share away in the cell phone market. Only real new product rumored, AppleTV, may not be as be enough of a catylst to increase stock price.

Discounted price, great consumer products, you will seem more growth from this Giant.

Has a little more pain, I own it, I know, but all this figuring, sentiment uncool, blah, blah, blah, google's going to $1000 now & AAPL is going to Hates, all how you look at #'s & project future growth & you see a lot of #'s that justify whetever they want PEG ratios all over the chart, 3 months ago also going to $1000, 2 years ago GOOG was not coming back & went down to $433. Samsung is hot, Steve Jobs has passed, Cook does not have his idenity, so confidence wanes, future is questionable, then there's the flip, the insane sales 1% of US purchases are aaple products, last QTR's #'s were off the charts, margins by some metrics or Statements expanded slightly, but people seeing what they want to see, Watch, TV reset cycle, best in class retail stores, competition mis-step, or shock with unseen innovation, otherwise steady well loved products and those retail stores that no one touches, hoping in a couple years this is very red, even next qtr's #'s. Other than that, anyone really know more than retrospect, writing from underperfroming site so less impact than top 90% but haven't logged in for a couple years either, SourceFire & TNH sure played nice for me Thanks, AAPL!~

With the recent pullback there is little downside risk left in the stock: P/E is very low; cash reserves are absurdly high even after taxes; dividend is likely to rise; and the current yield is already above the S & P average and sets a nice floor on the stock.

I'm not a heavy Apple user but the business model makes sense and I think it's sustainable. Apple knows its market, makes quality products, and the ecosystem gives it staying power. At this price any disruptive innovation is a bonus and nothing about timing suggests the capacity for disruptive innovation is dead--the first iPad was released less than 3 years ago.

On the downside I share reservations that AAPL isn't a shareholder friendly company and I don't like their stated rationale for the current buybacks (dilution) but I think the concerns are priced into the stock and the addition of Maestri might be a turning point. Who knows where the bottom is but I suspect we'll see a dividend increase and/or increase in buybacks.

A ridiculously low price at $430. A great combo of growth, value and security. They will increase the dividend soon and continue to mobilize their cash horde.

At this price, Apple doesn't have to grow. Watch the dividends and share buy-backs increase as the company continues to produce loads of cash. The ecosystem maintains their customer base.

No brainer here. It has shifted from a growth story to a value play, with tons of growth potential. Valuation is beyond cheap, solid dividend likely to improve, and huge potential in China...not to mention other product categories.

At current prices, market's valuing AAPL as if its top line and bottom line are going to tank - so I'm chalking it down to overreaction. Even if AAPL top/bottom line follows a trajectory in the next few years (2013 - 2019) similar to Blackberry's the last few years (2007-2013) because of intense competition the stock is at fair price. If it's able to do a MSFT trajectory from here on that's some decent upside and if it cracks another category like TV or something then we're off to the races again.

Problem is growth buyers are not buying (rightfully so) because they don't see the the next big product. Income stock buyers are staying on the sideline for now since there's no dividend to be had. Sooner or later something will give.

Priced like a value stock, tons of cash.

How can anyone not love this company? Apple sets the standards and the world tries to catch up. They are the world's innovative trend setter and I beleive they will continue to be so in the years to come. Very few people speak about other companies the way they talk abougt Apple and all it's products.

I think Apple is definitly sliiping away from being the leader in technology. Yes yes I have seen its market cap but yes i have also seen its earnings report and boy investors sure were not happy. They cannot stay on top forever but yes right now they are on top.

This is way undervalued for its current products, and this company has the innovation to reinvent something that isn't even being thought about over the next couple of years. I can't see not being bullish at this price.

Simply too strong of a company with two much market share, with too high of margins to sit where they are today. When the dust settles, earnings come in for a few quarters... And new products are released, we will be headed back to $600

P/E of 10 is near the bottom of its historical range. With so much cash there are many options to increase sharehoder value and a dividend around 2.5% this can easily get doubled putting a solid floor on the downside. I wouldn't expect a double on AAPL as it is a megacap company but 20-30% return is in reason.
