After three consecutive closes below the psychologically important $400 level, Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL ) managed to climb higher during Tuesday's session to close at $406.13. Apple's stock has been falling since it crossed $700 last fall, and recent operating results are not helping matters. While the company announced that it will speed up the clip at which it returns cash to investors, it is not doing so at the rate many had hoped to see from Cupertino. The question now becomes whether Apple has put the bad news behind it and can grow from here or if things are really beginning to look grim. While news of a slower-than-expected release schedule is not good news for shareholders, at current levels the stock is attractive.
Earnings results
CEO Tim Cook was unusually candid about the tepid nature of Apple's latest operating results: "Though we've achieved a credible scale and financial success, we acknowledge that our growth rate has slowed and our margins have decreased from the exceptionally high level we experienced in 2012." For the second fiscal quarter, Apple saw profits fall by 18% even with an 11% rise in revenue. Reduced analyst expectations had the company earning $10 per share; Apple reported EPS of $10.09 relative to $12.30 a year earlier.

Daniel Acker/Bloomberg via Getty Images NEW YORK -- Plain old Cheerios are no longer made with genetically modified ingredients, but the switch hasn't yet translated to a boost in sales. General Mills (GIS), the company that makes the cereal, in January announced it would start making its plain Cheerios without GMOs, or genetically modified organisms. The move came after a campaign by the group Green America, which prompted fans to express their support on the Cheerios' Facebook (FB) page. On Wednesday, CEO Ken Powell said in a phone interview that the company has gotten supportive letters and online comments for its decision. But he said the company was "not really seeing anything there that we can detect" in terms of a sales lift. "It's what I expected," Powell said. He added that genetically modified organisms aren't really a concern for most customers. Americans have been moving away from cereal more broadly, as alternatives such as Greek yogurt or breakfast sandwiches have gained popularity. That has left General Mills and rival Kellogg (K) struggling to boost sales. Cheerios is no exception; Powell conceded that sales have been "down somewhat" for the brand. As for GMOs, there has been little scientific evidence showing that foods grown from engineered ingredients are less safe than their conventional counterparts. But their use has become a growing issue, with some saying they could have longer-term health impacts and that people have the right to know if genetically modified ingredients are used in foods. Cheerios boxes are now labeled as being "Not Made With Genetically Modified Ingredients," which is not an official certification. The change doesn't apply to other boxes of Cheerios, such as Honey Nut Cheerios or Apple Cinnamon Cheerios, which still use genetically modified ingredients.

A patented breakfast product
Kellogg (NYSE: K ) can trace its origins to 1894, when Dr. John Harvey Kellogg and Will Keith Kellogg invented corn flakes by accident. That invention gained legal legitimacy on April 14, 1896, when the U.S. Patent Office granted Dr. Kellogg a patent for the new "flaked cereal." For several years, the two brothers tried to market the product together under the banner of the Sanitas Nut Food Company, which defended the corn-flake patent vigorously against imitators.

Ever since Lenovo (NASDAQOTH: LNVGY ) launched its Yoga 3 Pro convertible laptop, I have been�skeptical about whether Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL ) would use Intel's (NASDAQ: INTC ) Core M processor in a next-generation MacBook Air -- an idea I was initially quite fond of.
- [By Ashraf Eassa]
That's not to say that Apple should mimic, say, Lenovo (NASDAQOTH: LNVGY ) � by putting a 3200-by-1800 display on the next generation MacBook Air, particularly as the very�high resolution may have diminishing returns in image quality and could negatively affect battery life. However, a 1920-by-1080 panel on the device (rumored to feature a 12-inch display) -- up from 1440-by-900 in the current 13-inch MacBook Air -- with best-in-class brightness and color accuracy would do wonders.
