Apple should buy Dell, sell off its assets and give the money back to the shareholders.

Like every other Apple lover - I am delighted at the upswing in the share price. But, I am also concerned that this is a bubble waiting to burst. How is Apple going to meet the Street's expectations? We know that Apple always forecasts very conservatively - so it won't be hard to beat the company's Q4 guidance. However, it seems that the analysts are making crazy projections - which all points to a significant sell-off after the report.

Apple traditionally goes down after an earnings report. But they hit $171.11 during Tuesday's trading.

Apple hasn't released the earnings report, yet. That will be on Monday, October 22, at 2:00 PM PDT/5:00 PM EDT, after the close of the stock market. TMO's Apple Finance Board will have discussions and live coverage. Ostensibly, you can listen to the conference call online, but it's often hard to get a connection.
