Could a recall make AAPL go UP?

[supremeMilo]

Lets say $2 million phones ~$200 to replace/remanufacture.

That's only $400 million which is very small compared to their total market cap, compared to them having a defective phone on the market that might not continue to sell as well as a non defective phone would. Their stock has fallen a little and stalled since all of this news has exploded and analysts think people might not be buying phones. A recall might spark investor confidence that the problem is solved and people will continue to want the iPhone 4.

even with this so called reception problem and people screaming Recall, the iPhone is still back-ordered for 3 weeks, so people still want the iPhone 4 regardless.

also, the world's perspective isn't defined by Message Boards and Blogs.

and to answer your original question, No, a recall wouldn't make AAPL go up.
