AAPL Stock: 565.32 ( 0 )

Dueling 'Fool' commentaries on Apple stock

Dueling views on AAPL


The Motley Fool has posted dueling commentaries on Apple: says "So why in the world would you want to be a part owner of Apple at that kind of premium? Because, dear Fool, the company is a classic Rule Breaker. For the uninitiated, the core tenet of rule-breaking investing is to find companies that take a stick of dynamite to the conventional wisdom on the way to outsized economic gains and, thereby, investment returns."

    Give it up...

    We're always "zealots" or "nuts" or "drinkers of the KoolAid™"
    How about this: Apple makes some great s***, and we aren't tied to Billy Gates' n****** with crappy, hole-ridden software and hardware that's designed by prison inmates.
    I keep laughing - and I own lots of Apple products and stock.

    Probably right

    Not that I appreciated being called a zealot, but honestly there is no reason for Apple's stock to be this high. It is going to tank, and it is going to tank hard.

    not two kinds of people

    I would rather be neither thanks. You don't have to be a zealot or a lemming, just be able to think for yourself while still keeping an open mind about other opportunities.

    Loyalty

    Why are we called Zealots and no loyal customers? I think its a feather in Apple's cap that people are so much in love withe the product.

    What's that I smell?

    I smell bullsh*t. I think Seth Jayson is probably a hypocrite and had purchased stock a while back. I think these "experts" often don't follow their own advice.

    Think Different?

    This issue's a dead horse and yet this clueless pundit once again displays his ignorance and perhaps his inability to carefully research his material before publishing such rubbish. The word "different" in Apple's slogan is meant to be a noun not an adverb. Of course us "mac zealots" already knew that. In fact, I recall Jobs on at least one occasion clarifying it to the throngs of grammar n**** and moronic proselytizers that Apple's slogan is not grammatically wrong. Idiots!

    he obviously has never used a mac, or he'd be saying the exact same thing about PCs...
