    Is a three % yeild worth investing in a company whose core business market share is under attack while also having trouble finding new markets? I would hold off on them a bit longer until just before their next product launch.

    Also I am re thinking my 1250 gold statement. It came down in another rush and I am holding off until I see more price support above 1200. Im still bullish on REITs

    As I wrote above, I have no intention to buy AAPL now, just mentioned the dividend because some income investors arbitrarily screen for =/+3%. AAPL was never even a consideration for them before. Strictly a growth play previously. It opens up a new pool of potential buyers.

    I read an article today that said many of the biggest gold mines have production costs of nearly $1200/oz. It could provide a floor for prices over a prolonged time frame.

    That was why I want to see price support there, if there is none or little there could be a large spill over as Indians and Chinese re think there portfolio. Misunderstood you apple comment Btw before sorry.

    Perception is a funny thing. Apple's market share is growing, not shrinking. The entire market in general is exploding, too, so Apple will continue to see massive growth.

    My guy Pete is bearish on gold. He is long term bullish on AAPL (850 in 2014) but still waiting for it to turn around.

    It's iPhone season. I would buy now. Why be greedy? It's, what, a 6 forward PE right now? That's robbing a fricking bank.
