Have Apple's prospects in the short term really improved as much as the share price seems to be suggesting?
Some very impressive figures from Apple, although as the company said, the coronavirus could have a short-term impact on business/supplies in the Far East. After some initial profit-taking the shares have bounced back and look set to challenge the recent highs. Is there still value or could the coronavirus dent expectations for strong sales growth in the short to medium term?
When will the rise and rise of Apple stop? Up seven dollars today the shares are now at an all-time high yet surely the underlying business, from what we know, does not warrant this rather heady rating?
If the market tanked by 10%, where do you reckon Apple shares would fall to? I think they are seriously over rated at the moment but time will tell.
The rise and rise of Apple seems very bizarre to me. The company has now warned about problems with the Chinese supply chain. Then there is the fact that the shares were pushed to levels which were/are surely unsustainable? What will it take for investors to sit up and listen to the reality?
I think investors are not taking proper notice of the supply issues in China as a consequence of the coronavirus. The longer this goes on the worse it will get. I read today about car companies smuggling parts out of China in suitcases. The world economy will certainly take a hit - how hard is anyones guess.
Are investors finally starting to appreciate the potential challenges that Apple has with regards to hitting current profit forecasts and the supply chain in China? If we do see a sudden self off this might prompt many to take a profit when you bear in mind the huge rise in the share price of late. Overvalued?
There could well be a lot more downside with this one if the markets dont bounce back straight away. Apple WILL have supply issues for some time to come from Chinese/Far East suppliers.
