The Apple movement is getting very interesting and educational.


Okay so here's the NOISE take on this... people will be talking for weeks about how much cash on hand - and what they should do with it etc... but that is NOISE. What you should focus on as an investor - regardless of what company - is all the simple stuff we've been discussing. My take on Apple -- GREAT COMPANY - beyond stellar growth.... no dividend but the growth makes up for that in spades... as long as we can go to the mall and see LINES of people buying stuff... how can you go wrong with a company like that? How many other companies have people lined up to spend $200 to $2000 a pop?

But I wouldn't "speculate" buying a company hoping they suddenly pay a dividend.... cause the minute you do that - they do something 180* out from that. So I'd just buy based on all the things I KNOW now... and whatever happens happens.

Does that make sense?
