Good call on Apple, unless the company has something extraordinary that we don’t know it should see a setback.

Solid call Goldman is overvalued now as it has been riding high for quite some time.

One more stock that could see a 20% pullback over the next three months is GS.

Apple is not the same company it use to be. You make a good point that increased competition will only hurt Apple more in the future. I don’t see it as great of a bargain buy anymore and in fact I myself would short Apple.

If they can gain ground in the international market it would help the company substantially. I do agree that slowly companies are coming closer to catch up with the iPhone. I don’t think Apple will continue to expand and that is why I stated its going to be weaker long-term as it won’t appreciate the same way we are use to.

Good point yes short-term you could short APPLE. I too agree that BIDU is vastly over-valued and has been for some time. It will slowly catch up with itself.

I don’t understand why you would think they would continue to expand at such a level. Unless they introduce another cutting edge product anyway.

Macs go up and down in popularity. Brand recognition provided by the iPhone has no doubt influenced Mac computer sales. Other manufacturers are catching up to the iPhone rapidly (depending upon your POV, you could say they’ve exceeded it long ago actually).

Apple are good at design and marketing though, so I wouldn’t write them off just yet. I think the stock still has some way to go, though just not at such a rate.

Of course their main market is the US. They are much, much weaker outside American shores, which is both a weakness and an opportunity.

I like to think every stock can be traded, if youre not buying your selling (short). This might be a good time for short exposure to AAPL, either through shorting or buying puts. Another stock that might be well ahead of itself is BIDU, check it out.
