Re: The stock is vastly overpriced. 07/23/08
Michael - I actually have to agree with zoomaddict here. Yes, you heard me. The Big Bear, as Bearish as he is, agrees that Apple is "a no-brainer buy for at least the next year". The wild card here, of course, is the health of Steve.

Re: AAPL - trade higher right into the end of the QTR. 06/23/08
I'd say I agree with you until I saw the last sentence ; ) AAPL & GOOG are all long-term buys in my opinion. It'd take lots of guts to short against those smart asses @ aapl & goog!!

Re: Symantec Named in “Most Dangerous Stocks” List 06/10/08
holy cow are you serious ?

Re: faster is better 06/10/08
Yeah aaple is definitely a solid long-term buy. However speaking of entry point, don't you think right now might not be the best time to get in?

Re: Citi's mistakes will cause stock to re-test the lows 05/10/08
Have you ever wondered how low can all these financial plays go?
