Actually Apple's stock has sat there, up a couple of points and down
a couple of points for about the last month.

Now if you'd ever taken even a basic finance course you'd understand
that stock price is driven by very little that is rational. The fact
that Apple has consistently for the past 6 quarters blown consensus
earnings estmates out of the water should really mean something to
you. What actually happened to first stop growth was some asshole at
Solamon Smith and Barney (I think it was there) accused Apple of
Channel stuffing- which is categorically incorrect.

Regardless, Apple was still the best performing tech stock of 1998,
with a 300% growth. Apple now has fewer inventory days than Dell,
and quater-on units and revenue have both shown growth over the
previous year. The iMac was the best selling computer last quarter
and continues to sell well.

This is as off topic as the original post to the poorly built site. I
for one am through with posting to it.
