Supported and justified by the stockholders isn’t surprising. It’s the fact that this column writer is so unabashed in their reasoning that surprised me. It’s not often that you see regular, bottom level consumers enthusiastically using the same reasoning as a stock holder. Usually they come at it from more of a “they produce great products, they care about providing a great service” standpoint. However, someone who writes articles for a platform called “Apple Insider” is likely to have some level of stock in the company.
