Most people thought the stock was overvalued at that point, perhaps still. But by and large few are seeing Apple as in a serious trouble spot.
Well, that depends. One could compare the company at as far back as the mid-1990s, or even within the past decade. But certainly we can talk about how the company has been doing since the financial crisis, and they have still been doing well in terms of stock or their products. Challenges always remain (and there will be with more and more emphasis being placed on pure internet service-an area Apple has never been good at), but right now things are pretty good.
This depends on the product. Some of their laptop line is doing well, their pro desktop line remains to be seen (supply is a serious negative, however), their phone line is doing well (but decline was inevitable), Mac OS is having its twilight years (though I prefer it and Windows 7 over mobile OS any day of the week), and their Apple TV line is still the most popular (but I think the most utterly useless) in its market. Its cross-platform desktop software is murky at best (with iTunes becoming a bloated mess only truly used to sync the device and buy music).
To have it and the organization summarily dismissed and ridiculed throughout the press and their stockholders? Great job. I suppose it plays well for the radio show crowd and maybe some internet libertarians, but it's not getting much sympathy elsewhere. Then again, most of those praising the organization for its proposal have had little historical knowledge of the company to begin with.
