  1. I remember the Stockbrooker telling me I was crazy to invest in Apple and trying to talk me out of it. I told him “Steve’s back. Just get me the shares.” Wish I had the money to buy more than I did at the time.

  3. It’s still just the beginning. Just wait until macs are up to 60% marketshare. Now that the tipping point is here, it should only take us 2 or 3 years to get there.

    I wonder if apple’s constant press in the financial media these days is going to make executives more predisposed to bringing macs and iOS devices into their enterprises.

    My astute brokers at S____b have been trying to get me out of AAPL for over two and a half years now. Fact.

    Indeed, had I taken their advice when most vociferously given (@$200/share), I would now be $570,000 the poorer. Even now, their “rating” on AAPL is “B-“, just up from a “C+”! Stop the presses!

    The lesson here? Do your homework. Trust your gut. Watch and listen to CUSTOMERS, NOT ANALYSTS!

    Go, AAPL! (And, oh year, screw market share figures!)

    lol We share the same brokerage. I first bought AAPL in 2002 when the stock was rated a solid “F” and remained so much of 2003. Then in 2004 and 2005 it was the top gaining stock on the S&P 500 and they still rated it a “C” as “too richly valued”. I’d be a poor man today if I had listened to S—-b. ” width=”19″ height=”19″ alt=”smile” style=”border:0;” />
