Amazon.com, Inc. (AMZN), Apple Inc. (AAPL): Why “The World’s Greatest Retirement Portfolio” Continues to Outperform the Market

We’ll have to wait and see if any of these developments create lasting value for the company or its customers. In the meantime, the market is still waiting for the release of a new product that proves innovation isn’t dead in Cupertino since the loss of Steve Jobs.

The company has been hit hard this year with charges that its daVinci Surgical Robot doesn’t offer a meaningful advantage in hysterectomy operations, its largest market. But after falling almost 20% earlier in the year, the stock seems to be leveling out at about $500 per share.
