In a recent research note, Oppenheimer reiterates its Outperform rating on Apple AAPL as news sources indicate the company could launch a smaller version of its popular iPad tablet in 2012.
Oppenheimer notes a Digitimes report saying: "Apple is likely to launch a 7.85-inch iPad prior to the fourth quarter of 2012 in addition to a new iPad scheduled to be released at the end of the first quarter, according to sources in the supply chain. ...In order to cope with increasing market competition including the 7-inch Kindle Fire from Amazon and the launch of large-size smartphones from handset vendors, Apple has been persuaded into the development of 7.85-inch iPads, the sources indicated."
AAPL closed at $381.02 per share on Friday.
