Apple really looking to be in trouble
http://www.kantarworldpanel.com/glob...Over-Two-Years
http://www.gsmarena.com/android_mark...news-18181.php So poor market share, massive drop in profits and only Jack saying they are doing better than ever. How long till they move into obscurity? |
I guess the idiots have wised up to the fanboi tax and moved to android
|
Are you bored again.
Lets have a closer look. First paragraph "The latest smartphone OS data from Kantar Worldpanel ComTech for the three months ending March 2016 shows Android continuing to grow sales across the EU5, US, and Urban China" OK, so this is from Smartphone OS data, Android vs iOS, I got to 'Grow sales' bit and started laughing. |
You should grow sales by downloading it from here https://source.android.com/ check the price list.

Don't waste your time they don't support Windows what wankers.
"Android is typically built with a Linux or Mac OS operating system." |

http://www.nasdaq.com/symbol/aapl http://www.nasdaq.com/symbol/aapl/after-hours Think he will say there doing better than ever if it hit sank like the titanic? play on boys nothing to see here |
still slowly dropping, $89.79 now
So will jack put his money where his mouth is? |
On a Friday, before the market is open, probably not. 80% of my stock is in Facebook right now and they're quite likely going to do better than Apple over the weekend. I can't see it going down a lot more, I wish it was closer to the developer conference as new products initially scare the market and I obviously want to buy as low as possible.

Try to take the piss as much as you want, but if you'd followed my advice you'd be quids in.

So are you going to put your money where your mouth is and buy into AAPL like you said you would when it reached $90? Or have you lost your confidence in Apple?
|
I'm pretty sure I've explained that it won't be happening this weekend and that Apple stock has not yet reached $90... but hopefully will.
You need to be looking at the Pre Market not the After Hours. 90.34USD Price decrease2.17 (2.35%) Pre-market: 90.02Price decrease0.32 (0.35%) Thanks for the alerts though, really helps. |
price has recovered slightly from earlier jack, was down to $89.70 at one point ;)
you missed the below 90 sheep truck :( |
$89.93 jack, get buying
|
You don't understand how it works. Come back in 12 months, see how your money could have done.
I should also add that if you think I'll be posting any form of proof of purchase you're wrong. |
Gutless! :lol1:

I don't blame you though. Apple has ploughed over hundred billion of borrowed dollars in its share buyback scheme to boost its stock and dividends. Its a debt laden strategy where it not only started buying its own stock at peak price but along with the inflated stock price having to pay out huge dividends to its investors. Firms usually embark on a buyback programme as they believe their stock is undervalued. Unfortunately the market doesn't share the same sentiment. When Apple started their buyback programme in 2012, their share price was around $90 per share, four years on the share value has not increased and is the same as when it started this programme. Yet despite this, Tim Cook has committed more borrowing to a cumulative total of $200bn to the buyback programme to 2017. In my opinion, what Apple should be doing is instead of spending billions on buying back its shares is to spend that on research and development and innovation on its product lines. So far we've seen a decline in its market share and growth because the new products they keep releasing are generally not much different to the previous version. Consumers as a result have lost its enthusiasm (except for you Jack!) for Apple products, its drop in revenue reflects this. Having said that, I'm not saying that Tim Cook is the next John Sculley and nor do I think Apple are in any danger of evaporating. But I do think Apple have reached its peak, it is an inevitability. |

They were doomed two weeks ago according to you, I'm still waiting for the $90 share price, it better hurry up. Now, get your finger out of the dyke and find something fun to do.
I was reading an article the other day about the stuff the are doing now that is starting to grate on consumers, and some other stuff which Jobs would simply have not stood for with regards to how they make things. They are a victim of their own success in some ways. I don't doubt Apple will be a huge strong company for many years, but their heyday could certainly have passed. |

Well if even the likes of you have lost confidence in AAPL in such a short time, surely this is the beginning of the end! :lol1: The trends don't lie!

Whilst I agree that Apple are not going to go bust any time soon, surely even you must concede that since Stevie boy popped his clogs, the company has taken directions he probably would not have allowed, and they are not a strong as they used to be.

Let's hope apple don't drop a customers I pod in a pothole while it's in for repair.
Imagine the fanboi thread..... |

I only looked at the pictures.
This was my favourite https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.sco...8f337a87b5.png It shows spending in R&D ramping up nicely and shows how spending $100 billion extra is ridiculous. |
