I didn't post that part because whenever I read something like "Apple will undoubtedly..." I walk away cause nothing in the stock market is undoubted, excepts profits taken or losses booked.

I like Zaky's analysis, but I agree that the words "undoubtedly" and "inevitably" dont belong anywhere near investing. There is always some probability of things going differently than you expect. You just need to structure your portfolio so you are comfortable with that risk.

It felt unbalanced :)

I agree with the language objection though. I would say there is a better than fair probability that Apple will hit both those levels at those dates.

Being conservative, though, I am positioned to do very well at far lower price levels at those points in time

I also think he's a bit rash in saying that Apple will "inevitably" sell 100 million iPhones per quarter at some point in the future. That's not a given, to me. If they do, however, then his price predictions will, most likely, prove to be correct.
