Evidently a 78 percent net income increase in Apple’s fiscal first quarter was all it took for the market to put aside concerns about CEO Steve Jobs’s indefinite medical leave. Analysts following the company issued a fusillade of bullish notes celebrating the company’s leviathan quarter and raising their guidance for the year ahead. The most bullish target price of all: $550.

No big surprise here: Apple’s stock is slipping this morning following news that CEO Steve Jobs is taking another medical leave of absence. The company’s shares dropped some 6.5 percent this morning as the market mulled Jobs’s health issues and the potential timing of his return to the company.

The company plans to open 40 to 50 more in 2010, some in locations like Shanghai, London and Paris. A few of these will be what Apple refers to as “significant stores,” outlets that are striking in both appearance and location.

iPhone exclusivity officially came to an end in the U.K. yesterday when, joining O2, Orange became the second carrier to offer the Apple smart phone in the country.

At 37.9 percent, Nokia’s share of the global handset market is the largest in the industry. Odd then to learn that it is not the most profitable. And odder still to learn that that honor belongs to Apple, which has been in the handset market for just two years.
