    The names, phone numbers and/or IP addresses of every named hacker should be posted. Why tiptoe around this any longer? Name them and shame them!
    Better - set up a sting, arrest them, lock them up and throw away the key. Untitled l these people are aggressively pursued and prosecuted nothing will change.

  • Apple, Inc CEO Tim Cook's piqued peek at Peak iPhone

    I have another graph for you. Exxon's CEO has been with the company for a long time and even though in the last two years Exxon is down almost 12%, he's still there and recently got a huge salary increase. AAPL is still up 26% in the last two years, which is 5x what the Dow increased and 10x what Nasdaq increased. The overall market is messed up, AAPL is part of that market, which is why AAPL has been pulled down. We all know the market is manipulated and this is a perfect example. Even Apple turncoat Philip Elmer-Dewitt is questioning APPL's "bizarre stock valuation" (P/E 10) especially compared to Amazon's equally bizarre valuation (P/E 405). All Mr. Cook can do is continue to push Apple to create products people are willing to buy. There's nothing he can do to alter the insanity happening in the market.



    And if I owned stock in Exxon, I'd care. I don't. This is Apple, not Exxon. Stay on topic. 
    Excuse us, but his example is totally relevant. Who are you to tell others what to say? And his point that there isn't much Apple can do about the insanity of the market is right on target. Further, you seem to be clueless about Apple, and how it historically has been the most manipulated stock on the market, making its share price irrelevant compared to actual performance and market forces. Share price IS NOT what Cook needs to be focused on, other than the fact that this is a great time to implement buybacks. As Rob53 stated, what Apple needs to continue to focus on is building great products that people actually want to buy. Period.

    Better yet he should cancel Apple's leases so he can replace them with one of his preferred "high growth" tenants.  Then he won't have to remove Apple sales figures any more to make sense of his growth charts.  
    How does he know what Apple store sales are? I doubt apple is giving him those numbers... Any one know how these leases work?
    They are required to report to the malls as the malls take a percentage of sales for all tenants.

    ROFLOL - good one!

    One day advertisers are going to wake up and realize that most of them are pissing their money away with this company.
