A professional grifter. Robbing any fool that will listen to him. Humanity has failed. 

Rather pathetic dividend increase. I really am surprised it wasn't $0.02/share. Let's just say my retirement isn't going as planned. 

The article title should be "Tim Cook has a problem with an insane person named Trump."

Day 1 of the New Great Depression starts tomorrow morning when the stock market plunges. AAPL already down 5% after hours. Bring on inflation.  

This rumor has been around for awhile. I'm really sad that Pro models won't have the same features. I always update when the camera upgrade is worth it, but looks like I won't be buying this year (I've only skipped once). I just can't deal with a phone so big I need to buy new pants just to put it in my pocket. My Canon 5D is big enough. 🤣

I miss the old days of sanity. 

I use a HP15C clone on iOS that was available for a bit until HP made them remove it. Still my favorite (says a physics guy from the 90s).

My worth went up more than 7% today. I'm enjoying a fine wine. Let's just say I'm a non-diversified investor. AAPL since 2004.

Whilst the short term ups and downs of the stock market can be ignored, the bond markets and dollar depreciation cannot, unless the USA wants higher borrowing and imports costs (above the tariff increases) and a risk of loosing reserve currency status. 

Lowering interest rates and tax cuts would make this all far worse.

There isn't short term on this one. The market (and retirement savings of many Americans) continue to plunge. This has already become a long term issue. 

I personally love mine and still use it to run Adobe Director when making prototype games.  I’m running a good old OSX (can’t remember at the moment, I’m on the road).
