Deutsche Bank maintains a 'Buy' on Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) price target raised from $600 to $650.

Analyst, Chris Whitmore, said, "We raise CY12 revenue/EPS to $172.3B/$50.00 (vs. prior $163.8B/$45.00) and CY13 of $197.5B/$56.00 (vs. prior $196.0B/$53.50). Further, we raise our PT to $650 which is based on ~10x CY12E EPS ex-cash (or ~10x CY11 EV/FCF); the lower end of its historical 10-70x FTM PE. We view this multiple as appropriate given AAPL’s growth & profit profile. Risks include slower consumer spending, price pressure and new smartphone/tablet competition."

"We adjust our CY12 iPhone estimates to 142M (vs. prior 125M) and CY13 to 172M (vs. prior 160M).
