Why Apple stocks fell despite iPad 2 ′s success

Apple shares have been defeated in this week, marking the largest decline in nine months. This is not something what you can expect, taking into account the launch iPad 2 is unmitigated success. So why are Apple shares taking a hit, grave 2,3% on Tuesday and 4,5 per cent on Wednesday?

Analysts point to a number of reasons. JMP Securities Alex Gauna lowered Apple on Wednesday due to concerns over a slowdown in the growth of the main Apple, Hon Hai Precision industry (also known as Foxconn), Sneak a huge success to start chipping away at sales of the iPhone.

Gauna is among several votes naysayers, who have doubt Apple can continue to exceed on the market. But Asian companies counters, CSLA analysis ignores the fact that Apple TRAVEL does not represent a significant part of the sale of Hon Hai (Apple accounted for about 24 percent of total revenue 2010 Hon Hai, in accordance with CSLA). If so, that much is not enough, since the direct relationship between the fortunes of the two companies.

CSLA offers another, more persuasive reason for the slump the last Apple. Analysts from CSLA Chitra Gopal and Steve Fox argue (and to be fair, also mentions the Gauna) that Apple's heavy reliance on Japanese components causes suppression of investor in light of last week's earthquake and tsunami. Here is an excerpt from their full information on (via SAI):

A4 A5 processors are made by Ibiden, and ACF films for displays are 100% originating in Japan (Sony chemical and Hitachi). This affects virtually all manufacturing, not just Apple. Apple-related stocks are Getting hit today — I think that one might be Apple historically operated supply chain lean (leads considerably lower stocks vs. other makers of consumer electronics/PC) — so concerns are Apple shipments can be worse hit.

The Japanese market represents about 6 percent share of the total sales volume of Apple. Of course, concerns the sale of Apple in the country, in the aftermath of the disaster, and the iPad 2 's run in this country has been delayed indefinitely. But here's rub: Chernobyl fallout is hardly limited to Apple, and it is difficult to see how Apple could have potentially more influence than most of its competitors on the market of computer and electronics.

So it would be at even for basic slides? Michael Shulman InvestorPlace offers four different reasons. Perhaps his most salient point is that many simply believe that growth will inevitably slow Apple, why not now? Shulman, for one, is not the purchase. It indicates that Apple owns a fraction of the worldwide mobile phone and personal computer market share, giving her a lot of space to expand business, something it can be easily implemented If continues his trend of introducing the cheapest offers on the market.

Apple stock is around 2 or 3 per cent today as Thursday morning. In General, tech stocks are trading low (down half percent today) due to problems of instability of the market after the earthquake in Japan. If anything, clear evidence of the success of Apple with iPad 2, in conjunction with what I think is the undervaluation of supplies based on TRAVEL by lowering the make this the ideal time to buy Apple stock if you been looking for an opportunity.
