>> in samsung that's been eating apple's launch in china.of that is just a tactical call between the two companies. samsung has run the entire gamut of price points whereas apple is priced at a higher end. the other one of china's infrastructure 3g and 4g are low penetration and it will be some time. apple made a call they will go with the two smaller network providers, chinatel and chinaunicom. china mobile is the largest carrier with 630 subs. they are only getting two-thirds of the market in the agreements they struck so far whereas samsung is spread across the three and took that approach from day one. for china right now, samsung's approach is more successful. >> if you look longer term, is is is apple's approach problematic? if you look at apple lagging somewhere, you can only think of opportunity. >> china's market will be larger than the u.s. in terms of the smartphone market this year. it will be over -- it will be around 150 million smartphones. it will be a place that apple continues to grow. i think the brand presence in china is

it's samsung and the midnight rider. this stock is halling all time highs.fferent than apple and it's an integrated play. they show up in handsets in apple machines. they live in the living room that apple is trying to get to. i would argue much more diversified. what is scary about this game is it's 16% of the korean index which you can play, it's the biggest stock on the msciem. it can get a lot of momentum and use it as a proxy or short it. this is a name that steals the thunder from apple. it's a name that competes on a better price point and across the product chain. it's not necessarily a stock without its own momentum, but it has a longer glide path to gloryy and a larger longer mountain path. >> that's a great job. we are having good clean fun over here right side. >> sorry that a play to the android. >> samsung is caught in a couple of cross hairs. korea is seen as an industrial play. if you see global slow down where tech names are defensive. i think samsung is sold off as part of a thing and they have broader holdings. it's a good question and a d

i think the three are samsung, micron and hnnbx. senior when i talk about others, some of those continue to run dram. >> besides elpida being delisted, we have sharp offering a 10% stake in its kpaechlt another japanese company struggling under pressure from south korean rivals. is this a trejd going forward? >> yes. a good question. you're definitely seeing a lot of o problems in the japanese tech industry. there seems to be a hole owing out of the industry. they've done miserably in the semiconductors in the last few years. and lcd continuing to fall behind with strong leaders being samsung and lg display, the korean manufacturers. so, yeah, japanese manufacturers are having some issues. whether we see consolidations in the industry as we see in dram has yet to be seem. it is a strong indication of the problems the japanese are having, so i think that's interesting. also, hon hai being the buyout, i can only speculate but there's been a lot of discussions in the last year or two on the apple tv, so this could be a potential for th

looks like a lot of the big customers like nokia, samsung, aren't ordering as expected. that is seriously disappointing. while cypress said positive things about later in the year, it was still very jarring considering the consistency of this usually terrific company. but at the exact same time, qualcomm and broadcom, two other semis are saying positives. worldcom looks like it's going to be designed into the amazon kindle which should be fabulous for them. but both of those companies are levered to am. one guy is levered to samsung, to sam is on and noek yarks and the other guys, well, they got better clients. the take away, who cares about the nasdaq or the semiconductors in there. we have big winners and big losers in the exact same sector. sector analysis out the point. this morning we saw sienna reported a terrible quarter, but the stock rallied. meanwhile cisco said nothing. it went down. that's not supposed to happen. cisco is better than see yen. that boy, talk about the oih. that was risk on. last year these stocks were trading in lockstep with the price of oil.

i'll stick with my samsung galaxy. i'll stick in a place where i think guys maybe even copied apple to a legal infringement point, whatever. whatever you want to say. it's a very real product and competitive threat. >> but not in numbers. they've sold a couple million, but not 15 million per quarter. it may be a competitor because you like to use it but not in terms of sales. not right now. i think that's the point that apple's making. >> what is your take on not calling this an ipad 3? should we expect a revolutionary itration of the ipad 3 in the near future? >> the next ipad will be the new new ipad. but i think it's great. if you look at the mac book pro line, they don't call it a number. the ipod, there's no number. just a product at this point makes sense. i also think apple's getting to the point where they can't keep changing the form factor. just like the notebooks and desktops don't change every year, we're going to start to see that more with the phones and tablets. >> what are we expecting in terms of apple

>> they unveiled samsung audio dock on tuesday in new york city. what makes it interesting is, the company is no stranger, they're no stranger to premium audio products. about $700 for the high-end version. however, what makes it unique is that it's got a little old school technology fused with modern tech. so it is vacuum tubes for a warmer, more natural sound. so this is something that audiophiles probably still use. it's, you know, some -- older technology, but they still have digital amplification as well. a 100 watt dock. that makes it unique. so it's old technology, tret troe technology with modern technology, but also unique in the facts that you can dock your iphone or ipad or samsung galaxy product in the back and charge it up at the same time, but it also has wireless technology. bluetooth 2.0. air play and other wi-fi supports to keep using it while listening to music. >> huh. >> so it impressed the group of journalists there and out in april. >> oh, okay. and the meantime, marc i know you're quite the jokester and you like to laugh and

>> like you said, samsung manufactured display. that's their biggest competitor in the mobile space. you have an upgraded cam rarks a texas instruments driver as well. these are components you have seen before in the ipad 2. they are new and improved. there are manufacturers apple has been using for a long time. >> dr. j? >> john, great stuff. i love your site. i had a question about when tim cook was showing how fast it loads with the 4g or lte version of the ipad or the new ipad, that looked amazing as far as how much faster. in real life comparisons that you have done, no doubt, what are you seeing as far as is it twice as fast, three times as fast as the two? what's your take? >> it's incredibly fast. faster than a lot of modems i have used. both verizon and at&t 4g lte. it's a powerful upgrade. probably at least five times faster. >> in terms of competition the gap was herement with the ipad three does the gap go like this or widen more? is there anything that rivals or comes close? >> i think the gap is wider. there really is

talk about kindle, samsung, these are all cypress clients.w that kindle is a great instrument. but apple has been doing so much better. >> apple is up 1.25% ahead of the big product launch in san francisco. you know, speaking of najarian, dr. "j" did some interesting math for us on "fast money" last night putting apple's rise in perspective. if you had bought an average house ten years ago, the average house costs $228,000. you bought the average house today, that same amount of investment would be worth in the form of a house $28,000, if you had spent the same amount of money instead of buying that house and bought shares of apple, you would have $9.9 million. and i rounded down. >> people at home, i know you think it's a mug's game so often, all you do is lose. this is one where you saw the kid by the second ipod because they wanted a fashion statement, that was your signal. the older generation are still thinking hewlett-packard. if you look at that stock, that has to be unone of the worst performers i've ever seen. still $120 billion in r
