It's Monday, and that means with two days of rest from soothsaying and divination, it's about time that the world got back to the serious business of making off-the-cuff financial predictions once again. According to Brian White, a financial analyst for Ticonderoga Securities and part-time fortune teller, Apple stock could reach as high as $430 per share this year, propped up by a wicked-hot product line that's set to be an even greater success as the world draws closer to the upcoming holiday season. So confident is White in Apple's ability to dazzle the purchasing public, that he's declared the company will most likely overtake Exxon as the most valuable company in the world according to market value within the next 12 months.
