Apple Stock Just Crashed To A New Low

[Slystallion]

the issue with apple is they put themselves in a tough position, if they don't have a product that is perceived to be the most innovative and the best then they lose their "cool" factor, the competition has caught up quite some time ago in the smartphone market but only now is it starting to become evident to the casual buyer with samsung making a dent in marketshare in that market, not to mention phones are coming out with much stronger specs

also they will be behind when it comes to touch screen MacBooks. and when they do come out with them will act like they invented the concept and will charge a bigger premium then current touchscreen laptops

what can apple do that isnt already done in the market in terms of innovation? The smartphone boom was the reason their stock grew so high and for a while they were perceived to be market leaders and the best product you could get in that market and for a time period that was true...android sucked in the beginning and blackberry had no idea what hit them the first few years iphone was out...in fact blackberry just now came out with something and still is behind the 8 ball in terms of competition....but until Apple invents something that innovates an industry they won't grow like they did stock price wise but again i'm being too premature lets see what their stock price is like when new phones get released and earnings come out from them

you ever heard of the iPod,iphone,and ipad.wtf did samsung innovate.

I'm not saying Samsung innovated anything but Apple hasn't innovated shyt in years

mp3 player existed before the iPod
iPhone innovated maybe aesthetically but the touch screen technology and all that had been in use for years
iPad...people have been creating tablet pc's since the 90s

Apple is good at taking existing technology, making it pretty, and then convincing nikkas like you that it's some innovative next-level shyt that you must drop thousands of dollars on if you want to be apart of the "future".

Even ask Woz, he'll tell you Jobs was a business man out for a dollar before and not any kind of revolutionary technological innovator

Didn't you just describe innovation?The ipad created a whole new market.When the ipad was released people said it was gonna flop.Now every company is releasing tablets.Ever heard of the App Store,iTunes?

at nikkas thinking Microsoft has more money than Apple. And now Google has more money too?

iPhone 4S sold more than S3 last quarter. And iPhone 5 is the best selling smartphone ever. But I guess you nikkas are blinded by that female hate. I would be too if I didn't have 8 Hundred dollars for 64 gig iPhone.

The hate is so strong. Did Apple kill your momma?

When you see a person shytting on Apple it's always some broke fakkit who secretly wants that apple laptop but can't "justify" it. It's the law of the universe.

Your hating is just confused admiration.

I cannot fathom people blaming Cook. Apple was headed down this road for years, and the problem is set by their extreme naiveness and conservatism. Jobs was even more stubborn than Cook himself.

The problem is, Android is a free for all and has rapidly outpaced iOS in many areas, and because Apple is such a self-centered company they still refuse to reach out and pull more things from other platforms to keep their users refreshed and entertained.

It's only so long you can hype up a wall of icons. Adapt and overcome or rot in the cobwebs.

I think Apple need to hire your smart ass or they are doomed.

Here is a bit of info for you - In the last year Apple grew by $48 billion — more than Google, Microsoft, Dell, HP, RIM, Nokia combined.
