March 14, 2012

Our algorithms show that mom and pop momo crowd who were mainly responsible for the last run up in gold and silver are not selling during this swoon.

I was surprised at the number of emails I received telling me that I was wrong in response to my article Five Reasons To Buy New iPad From Apple. The crux of most of such emails is that the new iPad from Apple (AAPL) is an evolutionary upgrade and not a revolutionary device. “It is not even an iPad 3,” is the most often quoted line.
