AAPL: Apple Is Not Worth Less Than Microsoft

Apple's (AAPL) stock fell 6 percent on Wednesday amidst an earnings miss by Cirrus Logic (CRUS), attributed to "weaker than expected iPad mini sales," with Cirrus Logic noting that the weakness was due to consumers waiting for the next iPad mini. This note resulted in many speculating that iPad mini sales might miss expectations by about 20 percent. Although this kind of miss would typically be a "big deal", I suspect the "news" has already been priced in. At the current price of $400, Mr. Market has priced in Apple's earnings falling 40-50 percent from where they are today, no new "meaningful" products emerging ever, and Apple having no intention of putting its $150 billion "war chest" to good use. Were Apple currently near a 52 week high, I might be a bit worried, however at $400; it seems likely that all "good news" has been sucked out of the stock, and all "bad news" has been priced in. read more »
