    Apple is exactly the company I want right now. 20 billion in cash with ZERO debt. Based on today's stock price that is about $23/share in cash. P/E under 20 for a company with 20%+ growth. Strong management, strong products.

    The economy might be tanking, but the customer base of Apple: wealthy, educated, and employable. Students will still buy computers. Households will cut back on other things, not computers. Computers are now a must have item. Along with cell phones.

    I'll be adding to my Apple position. In fact, I'm getting ready to pull a John Templeton.

    Cash is obviously safer in this market for anyone with leverage than a security whose price is subject to irrational depression, and Apple doesn't have a safety net any more than other good companies that are being hammered.

    However, the author of this piece misses the substance of the federal government's stabilization transactions. This isn't throwing $85Billion and $200Billion and now $700Billion into the wind to stop a storm as he suggests. I've discussed both Apple's "safety net" and this author's position on the bailout at The Jaded Consumer.

    Tom B's comment is definitely on the right track for unlevered long-term investors: people aren't going back to typewriters. Or LP records. Or The Walkman. Or land-line telephones. Apple's margins advantage is sustainable in a way Dell's wasn't, and Apple's cash flow seems to make the idea of sudden failure a distant fiction.

    when are the next 10 android phones coming out. it's just a matter of time before some comes out with a version that's lighter, simpler, faster, with a longer battery life, less radiation, more memory, etcs. Yes, Apple gets it first with software, but Google isn't dumb like Motorola, Samsung, and Nokia when it comes to UI. Margins will come down on smartphones, and they'll be commodities in two years.

    An 'option' you can buy to sell a stock at an agreed upon price by a certain date. It's kind of like stock insurance. For example, you could buy a put option to sell APPL at $80 by November 15th. If it goes lower, you can still sell it at $80, but if it goes higher, you have wasted some money on the put option.

    A call option is the same, except you buy the option to BUY at an agreed upon price.

    Our supply chain experts in China are confirming that iPhone is outselling expectations. Apple has increased orders ahead of expectations and have already started ramping its holiday season build in order to replenish depleted inventories. Reply

    Dropping like Toni's IQ. Idiot-level and still falling. Maybe someday he can turn things around and aspire to climb up to imbecile status, but he will never be bright enough to be called a moron. Reply
