AAPL Shareholder\'s meeting

Apple's annual shareholder's meeting is set to begin on Thursday, April 27th at the company's Town Hall Auditorium, and all seven members have been nominated for re-election. Apple recently filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission to hold the controversial meeting at home. As part of its agenda, Apple will use the meeting to approve the appointment of KPMG as its independent auditors for the present fiscal year, according to AppleInsider. There were 851,679,185 shares of common Apple stock issued or outstanding as of February 28th, and each share is entitled to one vote on all matters brought forth at the meeting. The annual meetings, however, have become a popular event for those opposing Apple to stage protests or demonstrate frustration with the company, according to the report.
