A mere 43 million sold just last quarter. Add in wearable's or Apple TV innovations, or other ideas if they come would be further catalysts. Weakness before the stock split and we will be adding. Last stock purchase below $400 a share. With 3.29 % dividend we get paid to wait. Better than cash. Don't forget Carl Icahn and look at his track record..
Yes, agree with the larger iPhone (it's also supposedly to become even thinner) and that there is little downside in the shares (especially with a whopping $90B buyback program..), but I'm not so sure about any other big revenue growth opportunities. It's simply not reasonable to expect them to come out with revolutionary products every 2-3 years, even if Steve Jobs was still alive. You gotto love the company though, or at least admire it. They're still the benchmark in smartphones and tablets.
