Greetings folks!
I think I need to rename this blog to "after AAPL". But I won't do that because I rather like the name Apple's Gold, and it is Apple that has given me the seed money to spread out my investments. I still do not own AAPL and quite frankly I don't see myself ever getting back in. It's unfair that AAPL gets pummeled for making so much money and being so profitable, but life is just that way sometimes isn't it? Unfair. Not to worry, there are some good plays out there, and here's a few of my favorites, I'll name 3. 2 Canadian stocks and 1 USA. All high flyers..
ECA - today's close = $20.07
SWIR - today's close = $22.90
MANH - today's close = $39.21 (recently split 4/1)
Mutual funds (too many to list) maybe later
Also ETF's same thing too many.
But I'm excited about the 3 stocks listed above.. Do your own due diligence and let me know what you think.
On Apple: remember all that talk years ago about the law of large numbers? Many of us were in denial that the growth would abate, but that's exactly what happened isn't it? I'm one of those that were in that camp by the way...I was convinced that AAPL would be at 1200 / share by now, but not to be, not to be...it's been hanging around 530's with a PE of 13. And since the crash in 2012... (Forevermore known on this blog as "the great crash of 2012) it's been ugly. AAPL stock just teases people and really does nothing. I do not see AAPL eclipsing 600 this year, and if the iPhone 6 is not a knock it out of the park hit, I see more hovering in the 500's. The ONLY thing that will push this stock higher is a watch and a TV. It will take both, and they both must be runaway hits. Worse, if they launch any new products and they don't achieve Jobsian flair and hoopla which equates to off the charts sales... Then the only thing I see is Tank....
And look at Google! Flying at 1214 and a 31 PE. And look at Amazon with its 630 PE!!! WTH!
Ha ha, it's all good, I'm very excited about SWIR and the internet of everything. Also Encana, just watch this oil and gas play turn around.
More to come...
Thanks,
Dennis
About Me
- Dennis Hildebrand
- Portland, OR, United States
- I am 55 years old, happily married, and obsessed with staying in shape so that when I do finally hit 60, I'll be able to have an active retirement. I'm also obsessed with aapl, and was long since 2005. I sold my AAPl position in October, and am waiting patiently to get back in. During the day, I work at a music publishing non-profit called Oregon Catholic Press. At night - after exercise, I relax in my chair, next to my wife, with my macbook, researching stocks, and picking winners to fund our retirement. I've seen the rampant consolidation of Print Publishing from the inside, or "from the front lines" for lack of a better phrase. The last 15 years have been a wild ride.. I can describe my 34 years in print publishing as fun and exciting for the first twenty years. Managing growth is fun - managing shrink is pure hell... But I'm a survivor, here I am with stories to tell.. Life experiences make me uniquely qualified to talk about drug and alcohol addiction, surviving cancer, gaining and losing weight, the drug "interferon", and of course - AAPL stock. I love the caribbean islands and have been known to indulge in scuba diving while there.
