or AAPL sees more weakness to come In my opinion, there are really no catalysts to move AAPL higher at this time. My assumption is their next quarter will show continued weakness. The only positive catalyst will be when the 7 comes to market.

Last Friday I speculated about why AAPL was being allowed to trade persistently weak with no evidence of any buyback activity. Conditions that, pretty much, have persisted all of this week. I speculated that they might have a material deal in the works (M&A Monday). In private, though, I downplayed that aspect as being a longshot to explain their behavior, but still the possibility existed. Well, last night we get Apple's 2nd largest M&A deal. Only Beats was bigger if I'm not mistaken. My guess is that Monday, no later than Tue, we should start seeing Tim's invisible hand in the market with resumed buyback activity. Possibly an accelerated buyback program (I hope), but at least the normal programatic buyback (with 2 weeks in arrears) That's my theory, and I'm sticking to it. ;-)
