Well your comparing retail to a tech company. But your right on the numbers. The numbers are crazy. But this is about growth and profit expectations.
The question is, can they keep it up. Can profit and revenue continue to grow at the same Rate? Is apple Bubble?
My biggest concern with apple is they only have one product. Several revisions, but all the growth and profit are one product technology. And they are the target of everyone. And they no longer have the best product. Or at least the product leading everyone by leaps and bounds.
On the itv, I just don't know. Its been 1 year away for a while. I was in best buy last night and a similar,are model of my 50 inch bought 4years ago is about half the cost I paid. I don't see itv being a multi billion growth product. Margins are tight, and there are several smart tvs out there. In fact Samsung is ahead of the curve here.
I understood the concept of itv was to create an environment of unplugged cable. So why is apple reportedly working with cable companies now?
ether way, the main question is if iphone growth is ebbing, then what is the growth Product? Apple tv can't be the answer. Not 10s of billions per quarter.
But apple numbers are still out of this world. So I don't know how long it will take to become "normal".
