By: Money_Morning

There’s Still Money to Be Made in This “Dead” Business / Companies / Tech Stocks
By: Investment_U
David Eller writes: So, is the era of the PC finally over?
Last week, Gartner published PC-unit growth estimates for the fourth quarter, showing a decline of 5%. This concern was supported by Intel’s (Nasdaq: INTC) December quarterly results, showing a 6% decline in its PC business.
Clearly, there’s a shift occurring as people choose tablets over laptops. But I believe the PC isn’t dead – it’s just sleeping. And more importantly, there’s still a place to profit.

In fact, for demographic and budgetary reasons, South Korea is much like the United States was during the prosperous 1990s--not the deficit-ridden, slow-growing place the U.S. has become.

By: Money_Morning
Diane Alter writes: The excitement Tuesday among Facebook stock (Nasdaq: FB) investors and industry followers over the company's mysterious event was quickly doused after the social networking giant announced the launch of a Facebook graph search - a kind of closed social search engine.
Immediately following the statement from Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg at the hyped media event at FB headquarters, shares of Facebook stock slipped more than 1% on extremely heavy volume. The news was a disappointment to many who had been hoping for something bigger, flashier and more tangible, like a Facebook phone.

How Far Will Apple Stock Price Fall? / Companies / Tech Stocks
By: PhilStockWorld
I had to commit to AAPL as our "One Trade" for 2013. I didn't want to do it but there wasn't a stock I felt more sure about beating the market over the next 12 months. The icing on the cake was the drop to $485 (even as I write this, I can't believe the price) on the same afternoon I was scheduled to be on BNN to announce the trade (see full interview and all 3 trade ideas here).

iPhone Becomes Apple Stock's Big Vulnerability / Companies / Tech Stocks
By: Money_Morning
David Zeiler writes: We hear one tidbit of bad news about Apple Inc. (Nasdaq: AAPL) cutting orders for iPhone 5 components and - boom! - Apple stock drops more than 6%.
The reason for the stark cause-and-effect on Apple stock is that the iPhone contributes about 53% of Apple's vast revenue. [In fact, were the iPhone a standalone company, it would rank 29th in the Fortune 500.]

Michael A. Robinson writes: With the commodities boom still in full swing you are probably aware the advantages of owning stocks related to gold, silver or other hard assets.
But when was the last time you heard someone extolling the investment virtues of helium?
And I'm not talking about helium as most folks think of it - in those giant (and comically overpriced) party balloons.

Why Apple Stock Needs to Refocus Its Energy / Companies / Tech Stocks
By: Profit_Confidential
George Leong Writes: The share price of Apple Inc. (NASDAQ/AAPL) has been on a steady decline since trading at $705.07 on September 21, 2012. There are questions swirling around regarding the ability of Apple CEO Timothy Cook to deliver the superlative revenue growth traders have been accustomed to in the past. But with the rise of Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. and “Android”-based phones and tablets, the competitive environment has tightened; Apple will need a “Plan B,” according to my stock analysis.

AAPL - An Apple a Day May Not Keep Losses Away In 2013 / Companies / Tech Stocks
By: Michael_Noonan
We deviate from our coverage of the futures markets to take a look at this popular stock. As we often say: A chart is a chart, composed of price, volume, and time. While fundamentals may be more prevalent in stocks, from an analysis perspective, they can be very subjective, depending upon how they are presented. The reason we view any analysis only from price, volume, and time, is that the charts reflect all the best fundamental views that are translated into buy/sell activity. Charts also include all the worst possible points of view, for they, too, are an integral part of the price/volume relationship.

Apple Stock Price Forecast to Collapse to $50 Target By 2016 / Companies / Tech Stocks
By: EconMatters
Downtrend still intact
It is official Apple is one weak stock right now. It is supposed to be a tell when the market is up, and your down considerably to the tune of 3%. The Jim Cramer tax selling notion can now be dispelled as well. This is the new year, and for Apple shareholders the misery of the third quarter is repeating itself.
After a bump up with the entire market at the beginning of the year, a 300 point rally can lift a lot of boats; the sellers loved that entry point to reassert this stock on the downtrend it has been on since the 700 dollar level.
