ITC Questions Another Apple v. Samsung Ruling

They were not 'bad' int the sense that they signal that the company is in trouble, but they were bad in the sense that Apple failed to meet Wall Street expectations...they were good in an absolute sense, but there was not as much growth as the investors wanted and this has led many to conclude that Apple's period of rapid double digit growth is coming to an an end.


The bottom line is that it is all about expectations...merely being 'good' is not enough, you have to be as good as the analysts are expecting, otherwise it is considered a failure.
