This summary was created by AI, based on 84 opinions in the last 12 months.

Apple Inc. continues to dominate the technology landscape, showcasing robust sales, especially with its recent iPhone launch. Despite the positive momentum, many analysts express concern over its valuation, pointing out that the stock is trading at a high price-to-earnings ratio, often above 30x. There are mixed sentiments regarding its approach to artificial intelligence, with some experts praising Apple's strategy of allowing other companies to invest heavily while it benefits from their advancements. However, there's a prevailing worry that rising component costs and pricing strategies may dampen consumer demand for new products. Finally, while the company has significant cash flow and dividends, the overall outlook remains cautious as investors anticipate clarity on Apple's AI strategy and future product developments.

HOLD
(Market Call Minute.) Incredibly strong company.
WEAK BUY
Had an incredible run. Steve is about $10-$20 in the price of the stock. You don’t buy the stock because of him. Buy it for the iPhone.
TOP PICK
Both RIM and Apple recently reported record revenues during a recession. Anticipating new products. Very strong balance sheet, over 24 Billion in cash. Any acquisitions they make would be very small.
COMMENT
Trading at too much of a premium multiple to Research in Motion (Rim-t) right now. (He has Shorted Apple and gone Long Rim as a pair trade.)
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick March 12/08. Down 26.5%.)
DON'T BUY
Would avoid this one as there is too much technological risk.
COMMENT
Research in motion (RIM-T) and Apple (AAPL-Q) in the long-term will be survivors. In the short-term, sales are de-accelerating. Consider Puts and Calls.
HOLD
Rapidly growing company with many great products. Taking PC share and iPhone has been a huge success. Apple Apps Store is potentially a $1 billion plus opportunity. Growing their earnings at a fairly rapid rate. Because of Steve Job’s health problems, initial reaction is going to be negative.
DON'T BUY
Concerned with their product durability. Product seems to break down awfully easily. Expect the iPhone will have a lot of challengers. Given global economic circumstances, people can live without the new gadget.
BUY
Although market share is below 10%, mind share (people thinking of it) is 30%. Therefore tremendous growth potential. Very high margins. Good investment on a 3-year horizon.
TOP PICK
Stock is down to about 14X earnings. Those earnings are very conservative ones.
PARTIAL BUY
Last quarter was superb. Their new phone had huge sales. A lot of that appears to be a one-quarter phenomena. He is seeing data indicating they are cutting back on getting parts for the iPhone. Wouldn't be surprised to see iPhone sales go way down. Their PCs are doing quite well.
BUY
Good seasonality and January/February is the time when these types of stocks tend to peak. Could see it at the $120-$125 level in January. The only challenge is, are people going to slow down their purchases of their products.
BUY
Very positive that they were up when markets sold off. ITunes diversifies their business. Basic computer business is doing better.
BUY
Started buying for some clients. People are still buying Ipods, iPhones. People are not lining up for bread. Great earnings and it’s a valuation play.
