Can Apple Hit $900 in 2013?
In the following video, Fool analysts Andrew Tonner and Brendan Byrnes discuss whether Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL) can reverse its recent course and surge to $900 in 2013.
It's the time of year when analysts issue their update price targets for the year to come, and at least one has set a $900 target for Apple in 2013. Andrew isn't confident enough to say Apple could hit that lofty mark, but he believes it's in for a substantial gain.
Apple has a refreshed product line coming into the holiday season, including the new iPhone 5 and a new iPad and iPad Mini.
There are also some additional catalysts that could push the stock higher, including its dividend and a large hoard of cash that represents more than $100 per share.
Apple is trading at a 66% discount to the overall market in terms of earnings, but its growth prospects are much brighter, Andrew says.
Despite a recent pullback, longtime Apple shareholders have been handsomely rewarded with more than 1,000% gains. However, there is a debate raging as to whether Apple remains a buy. The Motley Fool's senior technology analyst and managing bureau chief, Eric Bleeker, is prepared to fill you in on both reasons to buy and reasons to sell Apple, and what opportunities are left for the company (and, more importantly, your portfolio) going forward.
