Apple (AAPL) Stock Analysis 12/9/13 December 9, 2013

Apple (AAPL) Stock Analysis 12/9/13 December 9, 2013 -

 Follow @stockstobuy 

Apple (AAPL) stock hit $575 last week but has since pulled back about $15.  It has been quite a 2nd half of 2013 for Apple (AAPL).  Everyone was selling the stock below $400 in July but now everyone is buying shares in a frenzy.  News that would have crushed the share price back in June is not hurting the stock at all.

Carl Icahn continues to promote Apple (AAPL) and as long as he remains a shareholder, I don't see the stock dropping much from here.  Apple (AAPL) will have support at $545 and resistance at $575.

Noodles & Company (NDLS) Stock Upgraded - 2014 Price Target $60

Noodles & Company (NDLS) is a stock I cover in the stock picks group and is a stock i own for the long term in my retirement account.  Given the drop down into the $37's on Friday, I'm now issuing an upgrade and a buy alert to anyone looking for a good long term stock to buy and hold.  Noodles & Company (NDLS) receives a $60 price target for 2014.

Noodles & Company (NDLS) is a fast casual restaurant chain that is growing regional to national.  Management came from Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG) and they are doing their best to replicate Chipotle's success.

Noodles & Co is valued at only $1.1 billion with around 380 restaurants right now.  Their goal is to have 2,500 locations in 10-15 years.  By that time, we should see NDLS hit a market cap of at least $10 billion.  This would translate into a share price of around $350 per share if all goes well.

Expect 2014 to kick off explosive growth and the stock to rebound sharply.  As I stated earlier, I'm giving NDLS a 2014 Price Target of $60 per share.
