buy AAPL:Several analysts at Piper Jaffray, including Gene Munster, issued a research note on Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL) today. Following recent NPD retail data, the report offers an early view of Q1 Mac and iPod sales at Apple.

The firm maintains its Buy rating and $250 price target on shares of Apple. Notably, Apple remains on Piper's Alpha List.
Based on analysis of the NPD data, the firm sees Apple's Mac numbers tracking between 2.5-2.7 million for its December quarter. For iPod's, Piper sees data indicating units of 18.5-19 million for Q1. Although the NPD data suggests solid unit sales for both Mac's and iPod's, Piper believes "its too early to call the December quarter..."
Despite Street expectations that a deep consumer slowdown has yet to hit the consumer electronic space, Piper believes that Apple "is well-positioned to weather the storm."

With shares of Apple trading around $89.60 today (down 0.7%) , Piper Jaffray's price target represents potential price appreciation of nearly 180% from current levels.
Apple, Inc. designs, manufactures, and sells personal computers, portable digital music players, and mobile communication devices, as well as related software, services, peripherals, and networking solutions worldwide.

Hi Troy,

LDK margins are lower than previous prediction for 09....

Lower margins means lower EPS...so higher sales do not make up for margin....imho

Hi Ds,

Markets are weak...so a quick short is the only way to make money.

Good luck with FWLT.
