Summary
With the broader market having put in a key floor of sp'1972, AAPL looks set to comfortably rise into next earnings.
The $120s look a relatively easy target... the only issue is what then? If the broader market can battle higher into the late spring to the sp'2300s, then AAPL will likely begin a serious play for the big $150 level by late 2015.
