Where do you think AAPL is going in the near future and in the longterm?

Question

ive heard a lot of things on this stockbut where do you think this stock is going. i heard it could be over 1000 per share in as little as 8 years any truth?

Answer 1

Within 8 months, it moves possibly well below par (100).  Long term, it will be amazing to see who survives the coming ecnomic crisis.

Answer 2

Hi there. AAPL is one of the best and top performing companies out there (despite their own difficulties). I believe that the stock could easily jump over a 100% in two years. Right now the demand on iPhone is weak, but as soon as buyers regain their finances. I am sure that the stock could soar. Look at Amazon's Kindle device and compare. I think if Amazon and Apple continue to play their cards right that they could very well outperform many others for the next ten years. Also Apple has weathered some tough storms themselves so I know they are survivors but winners as well. Even Yahoo I think is under-performing in stock but could easily take off any day - mainly hinging on the fact of how the company is run or whether a merger is in their best interest.

Here's a summary on AAPL, taken from Google,
