Apple stock falls as iPad sales expected to miss estimates

article published on 13 November, 2010

Apple's stock fell almost 3 percent on Friday as one analyst said that the iPad will likely miss sales estimates for the upcoming quarter. Rodman & Renshaw say they expect consumers to cut back spending, and opt for cheaper notebooks or smartphones instead.

They should have known those estimates were to high and didn't count on the fact that other tablets would be entering the game as well(with flash support).

Stocks rise and fall on rumour and it's a great opportunity for the less-easily-spooked to pick up shares at a discount. Let's all wait and see what this quarter's sales figures are. It beats guessing.

Your comments so far have come from the usual suspects. Apple and iPad are a red rag to them. It must be galling that so far the whole field has been left to Apple. The first 2 quarters saw (if I remember correctly} iPad selling about 7.5 to 8 million. Competing devices appeared but hardly made any market impact. Anything of any significance seems to be slated for next year.

The question that should be asked: what's wrong with the competition?

Not surprised.

I supported a couple of these for some clients and they're garbage. Just a big IPhone and no camera, no memory expansion and simply played out. It's Exchange function is hosed and it's just a dumb and impractical Apple product. There are so many others that best this by a lOONNNGGGG shot.
