Apple continues to beat it's own forecasts and meet analyst expectations. Analysts need to simply get in line with Apple's guidance and leave some room for upside.

It would be nice see Apple do something productive with all that cash they are sitting on. $137 billion covers their dividend for the next 13 years. If they generated $23 billion in Free cash flow this quarter, I expect that they should be paying more than $2.5 billion in dividends. Time to give the shareholders another raise this Spring, but they might take their time since they just announced their Jan. dividend today. I'd like to see them get out in front of the next dividend increase, even if they delayed it by 1 or 2 quarters like they did last year.
