Speculation about a potential Apple car again ran wild over the weekend, sparked by a report in The Guardian that the iPhone-maker had found a place where it could secretly test it.
It's tempting to think a self-driving, all-electric Apple car is in the pipeline. And without a doubt, Apple has the financial resources to pull it off. But strategically, it doesn't make sense.
Here's what AAPL is really working on...

Don't let the recent Apple stock price drop scare you.
While concerns about iPhone sales are always valid – Apple Inc. (Nasdaq: AAPL) does draw the majority of its profits and revenue from its iconic smartphone – the bite out of AAPL stock we've seen after the company's Q3 earnings is overblown.
In the long run, the Apple stock price will bounce back.
Here's why the Apple stock price drop is merely a temporary setback...
Money Morning Technical Trading Specialist D.R. Barton, Jr. joined Bloomberg Radio last week, offering a critical perspective on Tesla Motors Inc. (Nasdaq: TSLA) and Apple Inc. (Nasdaq: AAPL).
Barton explained how technical indicators can work in concert with the strong investor sentiment that comes with the huge followings these companies have. But these indicators can also show when price movements are out of line with this kind of emotional buying and selling.
And that's where the opportunity lies...
The Apple stock price today (Tuesday) fell more than 3.2%, continuing AAPL stock's two-week skid. Apple stock has now posted a loss in 10 of the last 11 trading sessions.
And while many investors are panicking over the Apple stock price's drop, we're still maintaining a bullish Apple stock price forecast.
That's because the Apple stock price's drop is due to unrealistic Wall Street expectations...

Less than blockbuster Q3 earnings sent Apple stock down more than 8% in after-hours trading yesterday (Tuesday), lopping about $60 billion from the company's market cap.
But a closer look at the AAPL Q3 earnings shows the sharply negative reaction wasn't justified. If anything, it shows that Apple has spoiled investors with spectacular earnings beats.
This sell-off ignored several key points in the Apple Q3 earnings...

The Apple Q3 earnings will not only beat expectations, it will smash them.
Apple Inc. (Nasdaq: AAPL) is scheduled to report its fiscal Q3 earnings after the market close on Tuesday. The main reason, of course, is the stellar performance of the iPhone. But there's more to it than that.
Here are all the reasons why AAPL's Q3 earnings will stun Wall Street...

Of all the Apple stock price predictions out there, this may be the boldest: AAPL shares will reach $200 within 24 months.
And that bold call belongs to a seasoned market analyst with 33 years of experience — Money Morning Chief Investment Strategist Keith Fitz-Gerald.
He wasn't shy about it, either. He made the call on the FOX Business program "Varney & Co." earlier this month, startling host Stuart Varney. Most AAPL stock price predictions are much lower.
Here's why Fitz-Gerald is so extraordinarily bullish on Apple stock right now...
One of the key parts of a successful wealth-building strategy is finding the best long-term stocks and holding them for years.
Solid long-term stocks let you collect gains steadily for five, 10, or 20 years while you focus on finding other investments and opportunities. You can check in with them every quarter and see if anything has changed or adjust your holdings if your investment priorities are different. But for the most part, they are low maintenance, low risk, and high reward.
Now, we've picked three of the best long-term stocks on the market today. Each of these three stocks are leaders in their respective industries. They also have solid balance sheets and growth projections.
One just saw its revenue jump 40% in the most recent quarter. Another has annual revenue of $226 billion with gross profit margins near 40%. The third expects its industry to fill $5.2 trillion worth of orders in the next two decades.
