but here is john layfield, fresh from the beach.pple, i know you follow it very closely, are you buying those sky high predictions? >> no, i'm not. i would buy the $700 prediction, i just don't think that apple is any more an innovator. i think they're doing things to increase the value of their existing products, but you know, you lose a guy like steve jobs. tim cook is a great ceo. they have some of the best engineers in the world. you can't replace a steve jobs and you're no longer seeing innovation coming out of apple, you're seeing incremental improvement to existing product. i think it's a great company. i think the recurring revenue streams that they have are fantastic. i would buy at $700, but not a buyer at $1,000. stuart: you'd take 700? i think most people would, too. >> which is still very good. stuart: yes. thanks very much, john. dow is now up 104 points, 105 points. 15-9 is where we are. a couple of individual stocks to look at. american eagle, it's a big loser today. some heavy holiday discounts will cut into its pro
