This summary was created by AI, based on 91 opinions in the last 12 months.

Apple Inc. has showcased resilience in its financial performance despite concerns over its lack of an aggressive AI strategy compared to competitors. While the company has maintained a strong balance sheet and impressive cash flow, analysts have mixed views on its growth potential, with many concerned about flat revenue and the high price-to-earnings ratios. The recent launch of the iPhone 17 and strong sales in China indicate that Apple can still perform well, but fears of stagnation in innovation linger. Experts suggest that Apple adopts a cautious wait-and-see approach regarding AI developments, favoring a strategy of entering markets after initial incumbents face challenges. The overall sentiment indicates confidence in Apple's long-term brand strength but skepticism about short-term gains.

BUY
(Market Call Minute.) This is one you have to own. If the market can work its way higher this company will participate. Lots of cash, great growth rate.
TOP PICK
(A Top Pick April 6/11. Up 61.15%.) 45% revenue growth rate and 50% earnings growth rate and 40% ROE. Earnings projections are still out there and there is still room to go. Wait until after they announce their new product this Wednesday as the stock could go up on rumour and then drop off.
DON'T BUY
If you look at Apple, it is a product story. He would look in our own back yard. More upside.
COMMENT
Has defied critics and continues to come out with great products that appeal to consumers. In the next 1-2 years, it is difficult to see them continuing with their current momentum of refreshment of existing products. He is concerned about longer term but in the short term, there is nothing to be concerned about.
COMMENT
Hopes that they will start paying dividends in the fall as many other tech companies have done. Probably reasonably valued but the difficulty is that it is now so large that unless it comes up with an absolutely stunning success in the lines of new products, it won't be able to grow at the same rate.
BUY
There is so much growth at Apple but there is so much cash. They could keep so much value by just paying a dividend.
BUY
You have to be careful not to get caught up by big numbers. But there is some euphoria and some momentum trading out there. There are good fundamentals. He is an excited owner of Apple. The dividend will open up the opportunity to all kinds of funds to buy it.
PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick Dec 8/11, Up 28.65%) Would be a buyer at current prices. Likes it a lot.
HOLD
Had spectacular earnings. This is the 800 pound gorilla in the market.
BUY
Gone up a lot but a little tough to step into at this point. Speculation that they may come out with dividend or share buy back, which would be pretty positive. Question is if they can maintain their dominant presence in the hand-held market.
TOP PICK
Blockbuster earnings. Appreciated after earnings but not to the extent that the earnings were a surprise. Their domination is not being threatened and they have lots of room for growth.
BUY
Trading at 11X earnings. $97 billion in cash. Long-term growth rate is still in the very high teens.
DON'T BUY
Remarkable story. Attributes the boost in sales to Steve Jobs death. He thinks there was a collective moment worldwide where everyone said that they had to go buy an Apple. It was such a huge global story. He won’t chance it here unless it pulls back.
WEAK BUY
Thinks it needs to pause at these levels. Stock might be a little a head of itself. But you pay for perfection.
BUY
Recently touched an all time high. You want to own it. Don’t get too cute about where you buy it. Inexpensive valuation in that earnings have grown so quickly that it just keeps getting more attractive. No debt and $100 a share in cash by the end of 2012. Probably his favourite pick of all. iTV will take this stock to might higher levels and without it it still has a long way to run.
