Apple Inc. is still the darling of Wall Street and Main Street when it comes to technology and consumer electronics. While Dell Inc. gets rolling with it’s Streak tablet and while Hewlett-Packard Co. gets it’s Slate launched, a surprise showing of Steve Jobs is already getting the Fanboys ready for version two of the iPad. Now Apple gets to upsell it’s existing customers who have owned the iPad just a few short months. This is generating higher estimates from Wall Street research.
One such call this morning comes from Gabelli & Co. Gabelli sees the expanded base driving average revenue per user higher from $6.25 up to $6.45 for the second quarter alone. Based on shares around $352, a ‘private market value’ target was put at $555.00. This much higher than Wall Street’s consensus target from Thomson Reuters of $425.
While this is on top of what has already been a huge move, the price at yesterday’s close was only at about 7.5-times EBITDA and only about 10.8-times Gabelli’s ex-cash earnings projections for 2012. Another driver for this call was strong shipments of the CDMA iPhone with shipments being revised higher fro. 12.3 million units to 13.6 million units.
Le cabinet d'études Gartner a déclaré aujourd'hui avoir revu à la baisse sa prévision de croissance des ventes d'ordinateurs personnels pour 2011 et 2012 en raison de l'essor du marché des tablettes numériques, préférées aux PC par un nombre grandissant de consommateurs.
Pour l'année en cours, Gartner table désormais sur une croissance du marché mondial des ordinateurs de 10,5% contre 16,9% dans sa précédente projection.
"Nous nous attendons à ce que l'engouement des consommateurs pour les alternatives aux PC mobiles, comme l'iPad et les autres tablettes numériques, pèse considérablement sur les ventes d'ordinateurs portables, en particulier sur les marchés matures", a expliqué George Shiffler, directeur de recherche chez Gartner.

Mauvaise nouvelle pour ZAGG
Apple’s iPad2 debut even noted, “So why hide it in a bulky case? The slim yet sturdy Smart Cover protects your iPad screen without covering up its durable aluminum back.1 So your iPad still looks and feels like an iPad — just with a little extra protection. Even better, the Smart Cover doubles as the perfect movie-watching, game-playing, web-surfing, do-it-all companion. It folds in all the right places so you can quickly create a stand that holds iPad upright. Or one that lets you tilt iPad into a comfortable typing position. If you prefer to hold iPad, the Smart Cover flips back and out of the way like a page in a magazine. And if you want to shoot some HD video on the fly, the Smart Cover folds in half to expose the back-facing camera. Now that’s something to smile about.”

Les histoires de Ben...
Ben Bernanke, qui s'exprimait devant la commission bancaire du Sénat, a jugé que la reprise économique américaine semblait de plus en plus ""auto-entretenue "" (?)
"Nous voyons des raisons d'être optimistes concernant le marché du travail dans les quelques trimestres à venir", a-t-il souligné.
Les embauches semblent s'accélérer, mais pas encore à un rythme suffisant pour faire baisser le chômage.

"Le stock taponne" Steve !
En une décennie, il a échoué dans toutes ses tentatives pour trouver des sources de profit autres que ses vaches à lait, Windows, Excel et Word, installés d’office sur la quasi-totalité des ordinateurs : MSN est un gouffre financier, Windows Phone est tombé à moins de 5% du marché des logiciels pour smartphone, le baladeur MP3 Zune n’a jamais franchi l’Atlantique, le téléphone Kin a été retiré au bout de trois mois et la tablette Courier n’est jamais sortie. L’action de Microsoft à Wall Street se traîne autour de 27 dollars depuis 2001. Lassés, les investisseurs se sont depuis longtemps tournés vers les pépites de la Silicon Valley, comme Apple, Google et Facebook.
