Apple's Next ThreatSemiWiki - RandysanJan. 04, 2013 |
It seems only appropriate that at the beginning of the year we should look at who is going to be the next significant threat to Apple’s profitability machine. During Apple’s meteoric rise over the past 9 years (APPL share price: Jan-2004 @ $11 vs. Jan-2013 @ $550) different companies have been put up as Apple’s next significant threat or competitor. At various times we have heard that next impediment to Apple’s success is IBM, Samsung, Google, Sony, Intel, HP, Nokia, Microsoft, etc. The list is long, yet none of them makes much of a dent in Apple’s profitability or market cap. In fact, Apple’s market cap is more than twice any of those listed here and traded on Nasdaq.
