OK, ChrissyOne, we’re getting closer and closer to your new Mac. Sure you don’t want a dodeca-core Mac Pro instead of an iMac?
Go AAPL!
I think it’s funny how Microsoft’s value has hardly moved for as long I can remember… why on earth buy MSFT?
@Crazy Eight’s,
There’s no doubt MS is in a long slide toward the precipice.
How many trading days this year DID NOT have this happen?
@ Arnold Ziffel
Maybe I’ll be able to use it on my new boat.
MSFT pays dividends – that’s what analysts are asking Apple to do too !
Apple now worth 11.59 times that of dull.
Sorry C1 but Paul had already placed an order.
@ Crazy Eight’s
Well, MSFT is off its 52-week lows of $22 and change (currently above $28). Maybe investors are anticipating Ballmer being replaced soon…
A $5 change for MSFT is equal to AAPL going up more than $60.
It’s seemingly a daily embarrassment of Apple stock riches! Almost routine. As opposed to MSPFFT which is just an embarrassment. I don’t think even Gates can save him from the board at this point when they finally have had enough. After all Ballmer is reactionary to market trends and not leading them and as such will never lead Microsoft out of the wilderness.
A used car salesman in charge as opposed to tech visionary Steve Jobs? Jobs vs Ballmer is like Rambo vs Ralphie (from A Christmas Story).
@ Nicu
AAPL is a growth stock. MSFT isn’t.
Growth stocks don’t pay dividends. Your investment value increases because the stock value GROWS.
There is no reason for AAPL to pay dividends anytime in the foreseeable future.
@ C1
That boat would look nice by your new home.
Doesn’t look like Apple is going to catch ExxonMobil until the end of 2011 at the rate things are going. Apple shares would need to be at around $420 to pass XOM in market cap even if ExxonMobil’s shares stood still. The most one can even hope for on earnings will be 6% pop which will only get Apple up to the $370 range and well short of ExxonMobil’s current MC. I guess no miracles are forthcoming. I’m still ahead more than I ever dreamed of, though.
Interesting that stock always go up on below average selling.
I bet the next selloff will have above average selling.
Closing in on 100 billion above Microsoft. Hang on Ballmy.
Apple needs to buy AMD and free itself from Intel.
Could still be called AMD too!
“XOM” will keep going up, as long as the price of oil keeps going up. So I don’t think AAPL will catch it during 2011, unless Apple has some new iPad-level surprise that is not yet accounted for in the stock price.
If M$ goes to $25 or below I’ll buy some for the dividends. But I’ll hang on to my AAPL for years to come.
@C1,
The boat’s OK, but it would be better with a dodeca-core Mac Pro in every room.
Onward and upward!
@ 8^þ
I like the way you think, but really, I’d just save time and buy Scotland.
I’d say this was getting boring but I have nearly a thousand shares.
