Apple slips under US$500, stock trading at ‘critical level’
Stop your whinning please ! Too much hormones of the wrong kind. Just because I dumped iTunes from my Windows laptop and I don’t buy all things Apple doesn’t make it a sell proposition.
Yeah, Steve Jobs is gone, get over it. As brilliant as he was, he never contemplated and understood what he was up against. It takes one hell of a leap of faith to understand the grand picture and designs of the system and how it can do you in.
Connecting dots and painting a picture of malevolence if you decide that you are not going to join it makes it next too impossible to believe that it exists. Social Engineering makes everyone a target – like it or not. Once you get it, holy toledo it’s like a brick hitting you dead smack on the head. It doesn’t take long before connecting the dots goes from horse and buggy stage to Star Trek warp speed. You’ll know when you get it what I’m taking about.
Anyways – Apple is a great company. The markets have always expected miracles from it with Steve around to kick more than a few tires. Everyone including Apple must now decide how best to navigate the waters and in which direction to go. Okay, maybe an adjustment is okay, but ditching the stock to penny status ain’t gonna help anyone.
Give it time and hopefully Apple’s arrogance as a market leader won’t follow Nortel’s or Rim’s close call. Time for Apple to lighten up on the price points if it is to compete in the Real World of dollars and cents that consumers love – cheap prices. Yep, I know Apple – that’s a hard sell. What’s the other option – gone in a flash when something else and better comes along?
Start adjusting to the new reality instead of denying it. Once you’re over that hump, things will be alright if past arrogance doesn’t take ownership.
