Wedbush reiterates an 'Outperform' on Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) price target raised from $750 to $800.

Analyst, Scott Sutherland, said, "Given another blowout quarter, driven by robust iPhone sales, and solid iPad and Mac growth, upcoming product catalysts, and reasonably valuation at 8.5x adjusted CY13E EPS, Apple remains a top pick and on our Best Ideas list. While the next two quarters may be choppy, with a Mac refresh and likely introduction of an integrated Apple TV product, we recommend investors be positioned ahead of what will likely be a monster iPhone 5 upgrade late 2012."

Wedbush raises FY12 EPS estimate to $45.88 from $43.48 and FY13 to $52.00 from $48.65.
