Huge earnings beat and I don't believe I've ever seen AAPL raise guidance on an earnings call. I may have to trade this

Well blow me down - a great company at a cheap price is selling multiple category-killer products like hotcakes, and it beats earnings by a country mile. I'm shocked, shocked to see profits soaring in this business.

AAPL is now an even bigger bargain that it was before. At this rate EPS for 2011 will be 25-30, back out the cash pile and you are looking at around 10-12 times forward earnings, for the best blue chip stock on the planet. A fair valuation for something growing at this rate is probably 30 times forward earnings, arguably more in a bull market.

Basically, AAPL is a buy all the way up to $700 per share at least, and fair value could easily be $1000 per share. It is at least 50% undervalued. Anyone shorting on anything other than an ultra-short term technical basis simply does not have a clue how to trade or invest in stocks.
