Apple continues expansion in second-tier Chinese cities with new Shenyang store
Chinese consumers in the country's frigid northeastern region will soon have another Apple Store to visit, as the company is set to open its second location in Shenyang on Saturday.
MixC Shenyang
Shenyang's variant of the nationwide MixC mall chain will be home to the latest Apple Store, the iPhone maker announced this week. The new store will open on January 9 at 10:00 a.m.
After blanketing China's largest cities -- Shanghai and Beijing, which have nine official retail stores between them -- Apple's Chinese retail expansion has followed an unpredictable path.
Industrial areas like Chongqing and Shenyang now boast multiple first-party Apple Stores, while some wealthier cities have none at all.
For instance, Guangzhou -- China's third-largest city and the capital of the prosperous southern province of Guangdong -- is still without an Apple Store despite years of rumors that one would be forthcoming. Guangzhou residents must make the one-hour drive to Shenzhen or semiautonomous Hong Kong to visit an official Apple Store.

BTW, the market had gone up 65% since the summer were it had also crashed (the closing is in reaction to that one).
The Chinese stock market is pretty high risk, ripe with speculators.
I'd love to see AAPL at $150. I'm way too undiversified into Apple stock and I don't agree with a lot of Cook's extra curricular comments, but I still wouldn't change the CEO. The idea that the stock price would be higher with any other CEO in place is utter nonsense.
But basically it is the same theory. Steve can do the impossible, when he is running Apple, Wall Street will believe and trade at P/E 20
Tim Cook is in comparison, human. So Wall Street decide to run numbers and they can't figure out how Apple is going to be able sustain.
I don't blame Tim, it would have been the same for anyone else to run it.
The only thing i hate is Tim is spending money buying back stocks. Those money should be invested somewhere else.
Though as you refuse to honour your bet you have none.
EDIT: And it fully hides the posts too, and it works on mobile and desktop, brilliant!
Thing is, it would be nice to find that switch inside his head where you could shut him off. One could therefore learn something about this type of aberration. I know,as if, eh?
