Apple is going to report their earnings next week on Tuesday. I think that the stock will go up right after the earnings because of one main reason - Apple is trying to stabilize the cash flow and avoid the seasonality of their business. This trend will make their financials stable. The most important disappointing factor is that the company doesn't work on the ground-breaking tech products - Apple's tech progress is slowing down. Lack of innovations won't hurt their business in short-term, they still have brilliant phones and laptops. To be honest, the don't even need to surprise anybody now. Customers are satisfied with what they have right now. I think the next big move for Apple would be acquiring music live-streaming service (most likely Pandora) or another big deal which is less possible but more desirable - acquisition of Netflix. If you think Apple will go higher after the earnings, hit an "AGREE" button, if not - "DISAGREE".
