Apple's second fiscal quarter of 2011 saw the introduction of new Thunderbolt-equipped MacBook Pros in late February, followed by the U.S. debut of the iPad 2 in mid-March and a significant international launch of the device at the very end of the quarter.

For the quarter, analysts are predicting net earnings of $5.35 per share on revenue of $23.27 billion, above Apple's guidance of $4.90 profit per share on $22 billion of revenue. Apple's year-ago results for the second fiscal quarter of 2010 included net earnings of $3.33 per share on revenue of $13.50 billion.

Waiting for the "industry plants" to come out of the wood work and make excuses. There can be no excuses for "third-rate" products like the pieces of crap copy cat tablets, junk Android phones, and horrible Windows PCs. People want quality and it shows with Apple's stock. :apple:
 
wow, on Hitler´s birthday.

Let´s hope it will a better day for Apple than it was for humanity. :)

Kind of anti climatic at this point.
- We made a lot of money
- We sold a lot of stuff
- We are excited about future products
- End of meeting.
 
I expect AAPL to soar this week. It has been pulled back a lot recently but is ready to start back upwards again. It's still a bargain at its current price when you look at PE ratios of APPL and others.

Good profits due to cheap labor.

Labor is only one part of a products actual cost and actually not the most important one.

The "Made in USA" argument has been discussed in depth, so what is your point?

You want to pay more for your products?

The world is now and has been for a while no matter where located a global economy and every company produces where it gets the best bang for the buck.
Bang is not only money, it's knowledge and education etc.. (Sorry to say, in education USA is slipping further and further, as all the budgets get cut)

The consumer with their lip service of : I would pay more if it was made here" are full of it.

They are voting daily with their wallets at dollar stores and the Walmarts of this world, buying "cheap labor" products.

Bogus argument!

On a serious note though...I do wonder how long Apple can keep up their amazing growth. That said, my knowledge of the stock market barely rivals that of a typical 14 year old Justin Bieber fan...so

Very simple: There is growth (or not) in Apple's business, and there is growth (or not) in Apple's share price. Apple's share price is based on Apple's profits today, plus a prediction how Apple's profits will grow over the years. So the AAPL share price is higher than Apple's business today would warrant, because there is a prediction of growth.

Let's say the share price is based on the guess "Apple will grow 25% for the next four years and then stop growing". So Apple is expected to grow for four years. For shareholders, the question is: What will people predict four years from now? If in 2015 every analyst says "we were absolutely right, Apple grew 25% for four years, and now we expect them to stand still" then the share price will be unchanged from today's. If they predict "Apple will grow one more year and then stand still" then the share price would grow by these 25%. If they have the same prediction "Apple will grow another four years" that they have today, then the share price would go up quite wildly.

They'd never do it, every other country outside the US would be annoyed, a huge rise in cost, just because to us, it's now being made in a different foreign country. We get shafted for the price of Apple Products right now anyway.
