    It's a tough call (obviously). On one hand, they have some of the best designers and thinkers working for them, enough cash to buy a country and great cash flow. Not a bad dividend, either.

    On the other hand, they make almost all their cash off of one product - the iPhone. Momentum is what has kept it going as their specs have fallen behind. Watch is a "meh" at best, iPad is dead (iPro could be something if they put OSX on it, but I think they are still betting on controlling the app market, which is a gamble at this stage, with Google and Facebook offering new ways to install outside of their app store).

    So long story short I have no idea :-), like everyone else. I am holding my position, but it's days of running are surely over.

    • Cool, I'll see how it plays outpinkfloyd
    • Smartphones and gadgets all do the exact same shit these days. I say it's all riding on apple music, apple TV and the apple car. Would you bet on that?inteliboy

    • Apple is scaling back production of the 6s, according to the Wall Street Journal, hence the continued plummet - that's NOT goodformed
    • good. the iphone6 hardware design is so boring and uninspired - have no idea what samsung and co copied Apple on this one.inteliboy
    • hoping this kicks the design team in the ass and they bring the goods for the 7.inteliboy
    • They ALWAYS scale back production after Christmas. For 7 years people freak out over this. Then the prototypes for the next model start leaking.monospaced
    • It means absolutely nothing more than they are being reasonable and getting ready for the next one. They still sell like hot cakes.monospaced
