Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster has reiterated his “Outperform” rating on Apple Inc. (AAPL) after describing Apple’s iPhone launch as a “success.”
Munster raised his price target on Apple from $205 to $211 per share.
“It is more important that Apple builds the iPhone segment for the long term than for an impressive launch day number.” Munster said in a note to clients.

Wowzers… $211 has a nice ring to it…
215? 215? anyone? going once twice anyone?
What is the point of rising the target from $205 to $211 when we are at $146 now?
It’s a projection into the future. A big increase is much better than a predicted decrease.
Anal yst Paddy O’Furniture raised his target from 5ft to 6ft on the news that William Tell’s son had grown a few inches.
MW – seven. Yes, exactly 7”.
What is the point of telling me an analyst’s “target price” if you don’t tell me the time frame for the target?
These analysts are trying to out-do each other on their predictions for AAPL price target. Kind of getting ridiculous. I’m sure someone will be there shortly to predict $225.
Soon the 200 club is gonna be crowded.
Price targets are usually 12-18 months out. Why are you even looking at what analysts say if you don’t know what their price targets mean?
Who said he is “looking at what analysts say”?
He, like many of us, read this bull crap on MDN to maybe become more educated. We don’t use MDN analyst blurbs as our brokerage advice.
There is nothing wrong with asking a question that no one here has yet answered including you HAB.
Really, what the hell does “usually 12 to 18 months” mean anyway? It means almost nothing at all!
Apple Stock: The gift that keeps on giving!
@ @HAB–
HAB is right. It’s an estimation to guide thinking. It means a lot if you’re looking forward and gauging what your investments may be.
“He, like many of us, read this bull crap on MDN to maybe become more educated. “
to sum up, it is “crap” but it will educate you.
what were you educated with BEFORE?!?
….and yet some still doubt evolution.
Can anyone in Australia tell me where to go to buy some Apple pie please…
everyone is raising their estimates
but where is that ass from JPMorgan ?
Eight months ago Piper Jaffray set a target of only $99 dollars (for this December.) We are so past that now.
Does anybody have the link for their 52-week target from last July? I wish the link were included in the MDN related articles feed.
yeah, you guessed it, i am going to give a stupidity alert here. You want these Analyst’s to give a good outlook into the future of stocks, especially if you own the stocks.
This is what you look for: The low end (Bank of America) and then the high end (Munster and crew, and some certain swiss outfits) then if AAPL (or whatever company) falls within the numbers at around 35-45 (using 100 as a sample) then you want to buy. If AAPL (or whatever company) falls in at 75-85 (again, using 100 as a sample) then you want to sell. That is how easy the stock market is to play. Now be prepared to only make about 10% on your money, and unless you have time to follow your stocks all day ( I don’t) you might find it hard to make that.
That being what it may, I like making 7-8% on my money, instead of trying to play the market for big gains at one time. Anal-systs are great if you use their information.
At 7:00 EST, someone traded ( bought or sold ) 32,015 shares of apple http://www.nasdaq.com , type in AAPL and click on After hours quotes, page 2.
amazing.
Peach Picker,
Does anybody have the link for their 52-week target from last July? I wish the link were included in the MDN related articles feed.
Scroll down to the bottom of this (or any) page, type in “Piper” and hit return.
Who loves Gene Munster…
raise your hands!!!!!!
Also… buy into AT&T while it’s cheap. Some big time numbers coming there, too.
You can thank me later.
bye for now.
Gene Munster of Piper Jaffray has led all the others by a mile.
I think MDN should have an article dedicated to their predictions and successes in forcasting AAPL over the last two years..
Their scorecard should be pretty hot and I wouldn’t bet against $211 either.
As I said elsewhere, forget iPhone, forget iPod, forget AppleTV even, the really BIG story is the resurgence of the Apple Mac.
Ot has the potential alone to to take AAPL stratospheric because all the big IT influencers have largely switched already and the following surge is on the way. No doubt.
Windows is stuck in the 90’s, let’s face it guys!
