“Apple Inc.’s share-price estimate was increased 30 percent by Sanford C. Bernstein analysts, who cited a possible ‘upside’ to profit estimates as sales of the iPhone boost earnings,” Kenneth Wong reports for Bloomberg.
“Analysts led by Toni Sacconaghi, the top-ranked computer analyst according to Institutional Investor magazine, boosted their stock-price estimate to $175 from $135, and their forecast for 2008 cash earnings per share by 3.3 percent to $5. They kept the ‘market-perform’ rating,” Wong reports.

Wild men. One question: Is their $175 AAPL share price estimate a 12-month target… or a 12-day target?

Looks like a 12 day trget to me!!
I think it s todays target or at lease its for this week
How bold… I mean, we could hit 175 *today*.
“boosted their stock-price estimate to $175 from $135”
Way to go out on a limb there. Should be at 175 by about lunchtime.
Stay away from these guys!!
Wildly speculative numbers!!
What are they basing the increase from $135 to $175
More like a 12 HOUR target.
It’s 170.29 now. Maybe they meant in a different currency.
Or it’s a hair salon/tattoo parlor/brokerage firm?

Toni says stock will hit $175.00 by October 2008.
Toni says cash EPS will be $5.00 by October 2008.
She sure is taking a chance on this insignificant Californiia company.
How could she figure this out?

The ipod touch is almost always out of stock at Amazon, Target, Best Buy.
Aapl’s desktops are 5 of the top ten sellers today at Amazon.
Aapl’s notebooks are 4 ot the top ten sellers today at Amazon
Aapl’s ipods are 8 of the top ten MP3 sellers today at Amazon.
With their agreements with AT&T;, T mobile, and O2, aapl will make more money on the service contract than the carriers will
WHO KNEW?
I think they should all get together and post an estimate of $300/share and leave us alone with their penny ante incremental almost-daily updates.
So basically, anyone who listened to him missed out on the last 30 bucks, and now he’s telling them to miss out on the next 30 bucks
I bought at $9.00 – $14.50 and held AAPL through 3 splits. Sold 15% at $155.98 and made 6 figures. Looking for about $200.00 to $250.00 by 8/2008 or a split before July of 2008.
