Dont forget, this might be just the beginning of the turnaround. I owe no stocks in AAPL so my views are not too biased.
On the 4.4 million hits or whatever, a large chunk are people in the industry (Marketing Analysts, Spies) so that figure is not all useful.
On the same token, they achieved half a million sales kinda like a new store in the mall---they sell lots of stuff in the grand opening and lose steam later.
However, Steve Jobs (which IMHO, is a VERY delicate individual and have a lot of intigrity to work as the interim CEO after getting booted few years ago. Out of all the Silicon valley and computer gurus, I like him the most as he has the charisma) definitely have the strategies lined up for the company. Re-establishing relationship with COMPUSA and making new and even better products are some of them. Getting back the market share from the cloners are the second. Selling thru the net is another. Apple is mimicing others' success. "Wise man learn from his own mistakes, wiser man learn from others."
By Christmas we ll know if aapl will turn around. I, personally will not buy the stock, but good luck to the longs) |
