Sooner or later, the Apple stock will be the biggest single stock crash ever seen from the stock market. Then, the stockholders will be blaming everybody, including Tim Cook and Trump for their losses and misery.

It's not about revisionist history. It's about the giant stock bubble that Apple has become. There is nothing at all that can keep Apple flying so high forever, and the ONLY REASON they are so big in earnings and stock value, is because of the iPhone. No company can last forever so dependent on a single product. Especially when that single product is nothing that special and which a lot of other companies can produce at the same quality and lower prices, with even more current technology inside.

Why is it that most stock analysts state the AAPL is actually UNDERVALUED? For its performance, it is way undervalued compared to Amazon, which has made very little in the way of profits in its history.

Amazon's current Price Earnings ratio is 282.13 times earnings but its stock is currently selling for $1111.60. Yet it offers ZERO dividends.

Apple's current price earnings ratio is only 19.6 with a forward looking P/E of 15.2, and is currently selling for $172.50 AND pays dividends, as well as buying back shares.

Apple is a cash machine with $270 Billion in cash— more cash than the US treasury has on hand—and generated a $48 billion profit in fiscal 2017. Yet YOU claim AAPL as a stock with those figures is a BUBBLE? The true bubble is Amazon and TSLA which has NO P/E. . . yet people are speculating on a business that is constantly losing money.

Let's see.

AppleWatch grew 75% Year-over-year and can now work as a stand-alone product. Per Apple's Financial statement, if Apple were to spin the AppleWatch off as its own company, it would be a Fortune 400 company all by itself.
Apple Services grew by 23% Year-over-year. . . generating 20% of Apple's revenues and 15% of Apple's profits. It too would be a stand-alone Fortune 400 company.
The Mac grew at 13% year-over-year, both in units sold and in dollar volume, while the PC market over-all DECLINED year over year.

I guess your claims that the iPhone is the only thing that is making money for Apple is just plain wrong!
