Analyst's Perspective 21 Sep 2011NOV National Oilwell Varco 30 Se Apple can carve off. Once share is secured, we believe users become tethered to the Apple ecosystem that will drive their purchasing decisions for years to come. Apple is peaking at the perfect time, riding Steve Jobs' unparalleled insight, execution, and design skills to the front of the current product cycle. The iPhone is the cornerstone of Apple's consumer strategy, with few opportunities larger than the global handset market. Now it is positioned to ride a wave of smartphone growth that could top a billion annual unit shipments by 2015.
