**** SOUNDS OF CHEERING ****
After so many dismal, deflating, discouraging, post-earnings-report results,
This comes as a VERY VERY WELCOME SHOCK.
**** C H E E R I N G ***********
Now just let the jury stick it to Samsung. After today, perhaps sanity has flipped the world back to its proper orientation.

There was NO miss on Ipads! This report is PACKED with good news....including IPADS. I thought the street was looking for 19+mil? iPads: 16.35 million, -16% (lower than expected) Regardless, nice to finally have some good news.

Nice, divy increase, and "annual dividend increases going forward."
Tim has a very confident tone in his voice.
Angela Arends joining Apple's executive team next week...

AAPL will give capital return updates every time this time of the year and explicitly intends to reveal dividend increases at the same time.

Don't think I've ever heard TC so bullish.

Don't think I've ever heard TC so bullish. he is on his game big time. Note the assurance on outlook for the growth mavens, then there is the assurance on dividend increases and capital return for the value minded. Ah.... I expect one or two more surprises by the end of this call...there is a cat in that bag yet.

Cook is joined by Luca Maestri, who will take over as Apple’s chief financial officer after Peter Oppenheimer retires in June.

So, as suspected, the IPAD number is affected by channel. Only a 3% drop with this taken into account. Sure, we all wish it was higher, but this was about what I thought might happen, net net.

Man we need to break out the Zoloft / Prozac Jell-O shots for the board. I predict this will be the first call in many quarters that we will see a big positive surprise and surprisingly strong guidance. Go ahead and bookmark this and be prepared to throw it right back in my face tonight. If you do, I'll be deep in the Jell-O shots myself so I can take it. Eric in Austin Nice call, Eric in Austin!! No Jell-O shots for you!!

Apologies in advance, but HOLY FUCK!
Props to Eric in Austin, and anyone else who managed to look past the gloom. I'm very pleased about the split. It's a shame it didn't happen back at $700, but the whole WS conversation on AAPL changes.
Wake up, investment world! Slap!

BIG March quarter results. 42M iPhones....HOLY FAWK is right. If not for that and the split, June guidance would have hurt, as it missed as we feared.
CNBC is such a complete TRAINWRECK. I don't watch it but the commentary here and elsewhere is like a bad stench hovering over 100 Sani-Cans. They are just so pathetic.

No kidding, listened to about 5 minutes of Professor drivel and turned it off. This will give people a lot of confidence moving forward. People were hoping for a dip to buy on cause they know products are coming.
