AMZN Stock Forecast

Summary:

  • Congratulations to Amazon. It looks like Apple’s HomePod smart speaker is a flop.
  • As per the Q1 2018 report of Strategy Analytics, Apple only shipped out 600,000 units of the HomePod. This is way below expectations.
  • Amazon again topped the Q1 rankings. It shipped out 4 million Alexa-powered Echo smart speakers. This will only compel third-party developers to create more skills for Echo speakers.
  • Amazon touts 43.6% share of the 9.2 million (up from 2.4 million in Q1 2017) smart speakers shipped in Q1 2018.
  • Even if Apple produces a more affordable version of the $349 HomePod, Amazon’s long-term leadership in smart speakers will remain intact.

Apple Stock Prediction: Apple’s $349 HomePod Will Dominate the Smart Speaker Industry

motek 1 The article was written by Motek Moyen Research Seeking Alpha’s #1 Writer on Long Ideas and #2 in Technology  – Senior Analyst at I Know First

AAPL Stock Prediction

Summary:
  • Siri is not the as smart as Microsoft’s Cortana, Google Assistant or Amazon’s Alexa.
  • However, the Siri-powered $349 HomePod smart speaker is still going to be more profitable than the Amazon Echo and Google Home.
  • Amazon has sold 11 million units of its Echo smart speaker since its inception.
  • I predict that Apple will sell 10 million units of the HomePod on its first year of release. Strong sales of the HomePod could offset the decline in iPad sales.
  • Based on the 3-month and one-year algorithmic forecasts from I Know First, AAPL is still a buy.
