I disagree - I don't believe they have set an expectation that they will deny *all* incorrect rumours. (That doesn't prevent them from denying *some*).
We'll just have to agree to disagree on this one Quote:

Take the iPhone mini for example. CNET had an article about it on December 10th, when the stock was going down, and it only took Apple a month to get around to dispelling the rumors. |

As an aside, I think an iPhone Mini has the potential to both hurt and help the stock. It is not an inherently negative idea. It would all depend how Apple implemented such a phone, and how one wants to view it within the broader context of the mobile market. I also never thought the rumor had legs. I think you'll see a phablet-size iPhone before you ever see a Mini one. --Pat |

2. What makes you say that it has a negative impact? Today the market closed at +20.17, and it's the first time that it has gone up over 20 points since October. Quote:

2) Because ever since the story leaked out, the price has fallen. Today's uptick is for just one day. Let's see how the stock responds in the next few days. Quote:
There is a difference between someone saying "Apple cut orders by XYZ " and "Apple may have to cut orders next quarter." Do you understand the difference? Quote:

Now seriously, they could very well make several sizes in the future --- 3.5" and up. But definitely not a cheap iPhone mini. They have cheap iphones now (the older versions) and they are some of the reasons iphone 5 isn't selling as well as Apple hoped for. Apparently a lot of people are still getting the 4GS. |

But seriously, there are apps that run on the new iOS that won't run on iOS 5 or below.

The purpose of the economists' idea was to prevent ridiculous abuses, cf. renting a Lear jet for a supposed business lunch in Honolulu. If you owned a stake in the business, they reasoned, you would be less likely to bill rash expenditures to it, and would probably take your obligations to it more seriously. The result was to create a worse situation than the one they attempted to fix. After they were made major shareholders, many CEOs chose to inflate stock prices by any bloody means necessary (see the short bleak career of "Chainsaw Al"). Many were willing to doom their own companies in the name of selling their own shares at a high profit. ---------------------- * See "The Greed Cycle: How the financial system encouraged corporations to go crazy," by John Cassidy, The New Yorker (Sep't 23, 2002).
