A bunch of “experts” keep telling folks to wait for a pullback to buy more shares. They’ve been saying that since the stock was at $480. At this rate, in a month they’ll be urging people to wait until it dips back to $550.
The last pullback occurred December 22, 2011 when AAPL closed at $398.55.
And all this growth had accelerated during the Great Recession… Imagine what it will be like when the global economy picks up and Apple starts making serious inroads to China as well as other major emerging markets such as Brazil and India. As TC said, Apple has only scratched the surface.
That’s what a mountain load of cash hoard can do during lean years. Apple was wise to store up during the years of plenty and now it has opportunities aplenty that those spendthrift companies in the Wintel and Android blocs do not have. Apple is the only company that heeds the “7 years of plenty and 7 years of famine” lesson. It has never drank the poison chalice offered by Wall Street and high-flown political think-tankers. As long as Apple sticks to this principle it would never go wrong.
