Apple stock closes at new high of $136.70 as market cap inches toward $720 billion
Apple has plenty of cash to increase its dividend. If they could repatriate the cash at a decent rate they wouldn't have to sell bonds to raise the funds but even then the bonds are cheaper than the lowest repatriation rate I've seen quoted so we'll see what management does.
We have to accept that Apple has a double standard against it. They have to outperform and out innovate by 5:1 in order for these analysts to not dump the stock. Everyone else somehow blows smoke and sees stock price increases. Just look at the P/E ratios for some of these companies in comparison. Why does MSFT (and Alphabet) have a P/E of 30? Did they announce a cure for cancer? The highest P/E AAPL has had in the last five years was 18.5. Total market bias. -

I'd rather the $7B be invested here, it benefits us all. And if we have to give our companies tax breaks like others do so that we can alleviate product dumping...fine. That seems to be the problem with us, we're so righteous and try and play by the "rules" of the free market except we live in a world that does the opposite and we wonder why we lose. We need to get over ourselves.
