AAPL: Making The Most Of Apple

Making The Most Of Apple
by Marshall Hargrave

Apple (AAPL) hit an all-time high back in September, briefly trading above $700 before tumbling to below $450. I have been racking my brain on whether now would be a good time to back up the truck and load up on Apple stock, but perhaps a "wait-n-see" philosophy would be best for now? Or is now the time to buy up some Apple shares? I am leaning more toward the "buy" scenario, believing that there are is more evidence for "buying" versus "selling". read more »

Microsoft Seems On The Verge Of Something Ugly
by Paulo Santos

First of all, it's hard to write anything negative in the midst of a Bernanke market. Even though there might be reasons for apprehension, the endless money printing can easily override them, especially when we're talking about a stock now yielding 3.3% in a yield-hungry world. read more »

AAPL: Apple Has No Choice But To Make A Larger iPhone

Apple Has No Choice But To Make A Larger iPhone
by Paulo Santos

Apple (AAPL) will have no choice but to make a larger iPhone. This is something which is becoming more obvious as the days go by. At first, it seemed just like something the Android phones could do - they could differentiate over a much larger number of form factors, and hence they'd have larger, as well as smaller, screens. read more »

AAPL: Apple Has The Cash To Drive Its Shares Back To $700

Apple Has The Cash To Drive Its Shares Back To $700
by Timothy Phillips

Apple (AAPL) has let its shares swoon from a closing high of $701.91 in mid-September to a recent low close of $420.05. Apple has appeared as no more than a bystander during the entire decline without giving shareholders a compelling reason to remain in the stock. This is a company who is a leader in the fastest growing markets with the best products, who trades at a 33% discount to the S&P500's multiple while growing nearly twice as fast - but this is not enough in a market like this, where investors need constant reassurance to remain confident. read more »

GOOG: Google Still Offers Reasonable Value But Only For Long-Term Investors

Google Still Offers Reasonable Value But Only For Long-Term Investors
by Tim Travis

With all of the hysteria surrounding the decline of Apple's (AAPL) stock price, there has been slightly less media attention regarding the continued ascension of Google's (GOOG) stock price. Google's stock has staged a nearly 51% climb from its 52 week low of $556.52, to a recent high of $840.15. We profiled the stock bullishly on two occasions near the lows, because the market clearly wasn't appreciating Google's durable competitive advantages that are likely to lead to a reasonably long runway of above-average revenue and earnings growth. Google to me is the preeminent advertising company in the world, leveraging its role as the primary focus of corporate advertising budgets to leverage incredible technological innovation on a scale that has little precedence. The biggest risk to the company's moat occurred on the transition to mobile advertising, but the company was a first-mover in that market, willing to lose money over the short-term to build incredible value over the long-term. For these reasons Google is the technology business that I'd most love to own for future profits, but I'd only suggest holding the stock at current prices if you are a true buy and hold investor, willing to endure a potential 30-40% sell-off. To be clear I am not forecasting this type of decline for Google, but investors buying at these prices are likely to be momentum investors, that tend to jump off the bandwagon based on price movement, as opposed to changes in the fundamentals. read more »

HEADLINE OF THE DAY
How the Postal Service Is Being Gutted
The simple truth is that the postal service is a fundamentally sound business, though not without its challenges. If you look closely, you'll see a concerted campaign to drive USPS out of business, despite the fact that it operates without government subsidies and, potentially, at a profit.

AAPL: Should Tim Cook Ask WWJD (What Would Jobs Do)?

Should Tim Cook Ask WWJD (What Would Jobs Do)?
by Carol Kong

Tim Cook's leadership in the past year has improved Apple's (AAPL) operational efficiency and has continued the company's momentum to provide incredible value to shareholders. However, investors have lost confidence in Apple, and stock price has declined from $700 to $420 since October 2012. It's also been correlated that in the past six times that Cook has made a public appearance, AAPL stock has closed down. read more »
