Upside of Apple's Q4 shortages

Imagine for a minute, a company having a record quarter, despite product shortages. Now imagine, the enemies of free enterprise, pundits, analysts and Wall St, were not only talking down your 4th quarter, but the next quarter, as well.

If you're already having a record quarter, production shortages that push actual sales into the next quarter can't hurt that quarter too much, can they?

I'm just saying. And frankly I wish the "pundits" were, instead of trying to take on the stock price manipulators at their own game. What's that saying about, "Never wrestle with a pig…"?
