Advisors' Opinion:

• [By Rahul Chattaraj]

  The mighty Apple (AAPL) has greatly reaped benefits from its epic innovation –iPhone. Smartphones have been around us in various forms since early 2000. But, right from its introduction in 2007, till the present day Apple has made millions by revolutionizing the smartphone experience, the latest and the greatest contribution being made by the iPhone 5S.

  On the surface this seems slightly absurd. How could a market that began less than five years ago with Apple's (NASDAQ: AAPL  ) introduction of the iPad in 2010 be approaching mass-market saturation? Fast forward to today ! and both Apple and Google (NASDAQ: GOOG  ) have carved out dominant portions of what's now become a truly global market.

  Google (NASDAQ: GOOG  ) wants Android in everything.  Will Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL  ) respond with iOS-powered scarves? Who stands to profit more from the release of the highly anticipated Xbox One game, Titanfall? And does Lady Sif's ratings-boosting appearance on Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. mean we'll see more Asgardians soon? Ellen Bowman, Nathan Alderman, and Tim Beyers have these stories and more in this week's episode of 1-Up on Wall Street!

  A company's move to buy back substantial amounts of its own stock can create a lot of value for long-term shareholders. Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL  ) , Viacom (NASDAQ: VIAB  ) , and Yahoo! are doing just that, which will aid earnings-per-share growth by lowering the outstanding share count. Companies that bet heavily on their own stock tend to be good investments, as management -- which very likely has better information about the operation than outside investors -- is showing confidence in the organization.
