The Apple bubble is in the market cap vs iPhones, which is their one product keeping them riding so high. As such, it is much worse bubble than anything that occurred during the dot.com bubble. iPhones are just a version of smartphones, and there is nothing that iPhones can do that the others can’t do. Apple is due for a major correction, and the repercussion from that, will be astronomical.

If earnings vs market cap was all there was to it, you’d be right. But, Apple’s bubble is in the irrational exuberance that was created by the iPhones becoming so popular, and that popularity won’t continue forever. When people start deciding that they don’t need to upgrade every 1 or 2 years, Apple will be doomed, and when people also realize that, they don’t really need iPhones for what they do with smartphone, then, the Apple bubble will burst with a very loud boom.

But, like I said, you can keep your money in Apple. It’s your money. I don’t gamble.

You keep ignoring all the other multi-billion dollar products that Apple makes. . . which I listed for you in another thread. . . but you are that ignorant. . . and apparently stupid because you cannot and will not learn. You keep whipping your dead horse. People have been claiming the imminent demise of Apple for 39 years. . . and they've been wrong for 39 years. Keep going. Apple's stock went up by 1,800 percent BEFORE the iPhone was released. So you're wrong there. It has gone up a huge amount since then as well on EXCELLENT fundamentals, it is now up 4,200 percent. . . not on a bubble of hype and exuberant expectations by on actual REAL earnings.

So while you sat on your high horse, believing in your fictitious bubble, you missed out on the biggest run up of real value in Stock market history. . . all because you just have to hate Apple. . . and don't understand at all what a bubble really is. A little knowledge is a dangerous thing, adorno, especially when it is completely WRONG!

And what you think you know, is completely wrong.

You keep whipping away but you have not one whit of fact underlying your claims. NONE AT ALL.

Let's see Apple makes iPhone, iPad, iPod, AppleTV, Apple Airport, iMac, Mac mini, etc. And ALL of these work together.

Samsung makes Smartphones, tables, Washers, Dryers, Refrigerators, etc, and hardly any of these work together.
