Perfect Ring To That Headline Every Time!
Does this news surprise any of us? No.
When will this news next be repeated, as soon as tomorrow?
Considering the enormity of their court win over Samsung late Friday, the stock should have risen even more than it did today. Hard to believe it’s still so ridiculously undervalued by Wall Street.
Given the volume, it’s understandable. It’ll be time to buy some puts before long.
Let us not forget, Samsung Electronics dropped by 7%.
Where is Samesung on the list? They should be included.
$12B is a pretty good move! And Samsung had a corresponding loss of $12B on the Korean market. So in effect, Samsung shareholders shipped $12B over to Apple’s shareholders.
As an Apple shareholder I heartily approve of this.
This is all Obama’s communist-ass fault!!!!!
Oh wait . . . .
Nah. It’s only his fault when it goes down. When it goes up, it’s the triumph of free markets.

According to some “ANALyst”, Microspoff still hold the record with the adjusted inflation would be 867 Billions.
What they fail to see is that microsoft did it when every one was making money, no crisis, the top of the internet boom, almost no other competitor.
Apple has accomplish this after two of the worse economical crisis of history, with tons of companies ripping off it’s IPs and with its own products (not rips off from some one else like microsoft did when they copied the OS from apple (yes, the one APPLE ACTUALLY DID PAY TO XEROX FOR IT).
And MSFT had that valuation with the sky-high P/E multiple of 70, unlike AAPL’s 15 or so.
Apple was above $680 in premarket trading.
