Sometimes, people see far out into the future, right? It is possible that Zax still knows more than you and will be proven correct soon. And unless you get out before he is proven correct, all this time would have been wasted for you. No, Zax can't see far out into the future. He's been predicting that this or that event would cause Apple's sales to plummet for years, now. Most of the events were far in the future when he started talking about them. The introduction of the first Windows phones from Nokia was one of them. Just yesterday, he posted a chart showing the 400% growth rate of Windows Phone sales in the past quarter or something. It's up from .62% to 3.24%. So Windows Phone marketshare is coming back up to near where it was a couple of years ago. The chart looks nice, but Windows Phone is not destroying the iPhone, as he predicted it would. Believe whatever you want about Zax, but look at his record first. It's not great. PS: Sure, he could turn out to be correct, and Windows may take over everything again. But he'd still have missed the top in Apple by almost 100%. That's a big miss. And after this year, it will become an even bigger miss.
