Barclays maintains an 'Overweight' on Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) price target of $750.00.
Analyst, Ben Reitzes, said, "With Improved Outlook on In-Cell Displays We Are Expecting a Strong C4Q iPhone 5 Ramp: It appears Apple has improved the sensitivity of its in-cell screens via a firmware update. As a result the visibility for iPhone 5 display production has improved and we believe there is less downside risk to production numbers." (expect iPhone 5 launch mid-to-late Sept in limited quantities)
"NPD PC Shows Mac Units Down 6% Y/Y in July: NPD US data indicates that Mac units were down 6% y/y in July. Despite recent declines, we believe that Apple continues to benefit from international growth opportunities and the refresh of the MacBook lines." (Expect 26% qtr-over-qtr growth to 5.1 million units in F4Q12)
"We believe that Apple is disrupting whole sectors, extracting profits and revenues
from companies in the PC, mobility, printing, and even retail sectors."
