Apple Was Awarded A Patent That Could One Day Make Your iPhone Super Strong While you were relaxing this past weekend, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office was hard at work granting 59 patents for Apple. And among those patents was one for LiquidMetal, an alloy that has been rumored to be used for future iPhones. LiquidMetal is incredibly strong and durable and has a similar atomic structure to glass. It looks kind of like stainless steel with a silvery grey metallic color. And since it is resistant to scratches and corrosion, it would be a great contender for phone cases and frames. More at: finance.yahoo.com o~~~ O

Your opinion is valid, just as is someone's opinion that Apple could have fallen into the 300s if the iPhone sales and share trends has more closely followed the iPad ones. But either way, a bullish or bearish opinion is different from an objective risk measure such as beta. To outperform the market, you have to have an opinion that is more accurate than the objective measures, so by all means, someone who holds the opinion that Apple is on it's way back to profit growth should be acquiring shares. As you said, we need to wait a at least until the end of year or perhaps well into 2015 to get a better grasp if the stall in profit growth was a blip or a longer term shift.
