Post subject:  Analysts...

clicky

The facts: Apple has closed the pre-order scheme for ipads in the US. It has turned away many orders from customers who wanted to order more than two. It has what are generally estimated to be around a quarter of a million pre-orders on a device nobody has actually even used in the wild yet and which there are no reviews and barely any hands on previews of.

Yet these chuckleheads, whose banner line say bring 'Insightful analysis and commentary for Investors' say...

Quote:
Apple may have to quickly cut prices the way that it did with the iPhone to keep consumer interest in the iPad high.


Yes, they've sold out so they will have to drop the price.

/facepalm.

You do get the occasional considered analysis, but those don't grab headlines, so they're few and far between... Sometimes I just like reading the crazy statements :lol: , but often you get good debate in the given comments :)

Are there any actual qualifications for being an analyst? Every time Apple do anything there's always some moron from a firm of analysts spouting rubbish. How many people have these non-jobs?

It's marketing you just can't buy.

But you can certainly arrange it by deliberately restricting supply. [/cynisism]

Yes but the comments in this forum have been a lot more measured and certainly not as crazy.
