Advisors' Opinion:

• [By Tim Beyers]

  Quietly, Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL  ) is rolling out iCloud syncing for both movies and TV shows.

  How do I know? I'm one of what seems to be a growing number of iTunes season pass subscribers. Last week, I downloaded the latest episode of the second half of Series 7 of Doctor Who -- see the trailer at the end -- and started watching as I always do: 15 minutes at lunch at my desk, followed by a download to my iPad Mini during a workout break later in the day.

  Boeing’s (BA) shares rose yesterday following its investor day, in which it said it would seek to become more like Apple (AAPL). Today, the gains are continuing as investors digest the meat of the presentation! .

  Computers (laptops)
  With PC sales dropping more in the first quarter than at any other time in their history, competition among laptop makers is getting fiercer by the day -- and margins thinner. This is a sector that requires constant innovation, so, as to be expected, Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL  ) and Samsung tied for the top spot.
