Contributor Robert Hof, noting that Apple saw its shares fall $9.30, or about 1.3% the day it said it sold five million instead of ten million of its new phone, says people are over-reacting. "Let’s get real," he writes. "First of all, it’s not clear that Apple really fell short of any reasonable expectation. As one person noted today, the supposedly disappointing 5 million in iPhone 5 sales in a weekend is more than Nokia sold of its latest Lumia smartphones in an entire quarter."
