Quote from Nine_Ender:
Funny thing is you could get AAPL for under $9 a share in 1999.
I would imagine the same kind of silliness was being posted about how AAPL had lost market share and was going under.
Fact is, RIMM is in a growth industry with huge earnings streams. Obviously they did something right in the past, and the possibility exists they can again innovate and succeed in the future. I wonder what AAPL looked like in 1999 to investors.
Of course, you could always gamble on debt laden firms like Citigroup instead. Much, much better chance they go bankrupt then RIMM ever will. In fact, if RIMM gets much cheaper, they'll be a prime takeover target. How cheap can they get though with $8 a share in CASH on their books and probably at least another $5 a share coming the next 12 months ?
How many apples have you seen? Just one in last 20 years.
Do I need to remind you how many tech companies has gone busted? Where is PALM now?
