CAPS Rating:

The Company designs, manufactures and markets personal computers and related software, services, peripherals, and networking solutions.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

It may not pay a dividend, but if the stock price keeps going up 100% per year, then all you need is someone willing to buy this stock later this year, after a 20%, 30% or what ever profit you think yo...More

Apple might be overvalued, but it is an outstanding company and they will continue to grow. Short run anything can happen, but in the long run this is a great company.

Technical analysis, stock bounces to approximately $210-$215 in the next few months+ great fool (idiot) theory. Apple's long-term sustainability esp. in lieu of their idiotic use of retained earnings towards (iPad) remains to be seen. Great accounting gimmicks too.
