"The US Department of Justice similarly seemed to ignore that anyone could choose to buy the cheaper Amazon Kindle versions of e-books. Apple CEO Tim Cook described the whole case as 'bizarre.'" I seem to remember the agency agreements Apple coerce…

I'm thinking the 6.4" OLED model will be AT LEAST $1,000. I don't see Apple offering it for less than $999 and possibly all the way up to $1,149. At the reported prices I will be in the market for the LCD model as long as it hits the $699 mark. N…

A head-tax should apply to all employers equally. There is no reason to think an Apple employee utilizes the local transportation system any more than any other company's employees. This is just a fancy way to garner local support because it only …

That sounds like a full-year order for the OLED panels. The X is on track to sell a total of 40 million in its initial year, and this was supposed to be a supercycle. You've also got multiple reports saying the LCD device is expected to be the mos…

I'm somehow reminded of the comparisons between Q1 sales in FY 2017 and 2018. Everyone was crowing about how much sales had increased in Q1/17 without mentioning it had an extra week. Adjusting for the extra week Q1/17 sales were actually down fro…

I can see this being true, particularly if Apple discontinues a lot of the older devices. They are currently selling SE, 6s, 7, 8, and X models. Despite the X being the most popular individual device sold since its release, ultimately it only acco…

Analyst puffery designed to artificially pump the stock price in the same way the negative reports of iPhone X sales at the end of April tried to bring the stock price down. I bet another analyst from the same company puts out a doom-and-gloom piec…

The potential supercycle is going to depend on how Apple positions the rumored full-screen LCD devices. I think the $1K price of the X was off-putting to quite a few potential customers who had previously gotten flagship devices that started at $64…

They will need two things to be even remotely successful: well-coded power efficient apps and week-long standby time. I've got both a Surface Pro 4 and an iPad. They are two completely different devices. The iPad is simple to use with great apps …

Does it throw an error and then look for the vein bulging in your forehead out of frustration?

As negative as I usually am regarding the plateau/maturation of the iPhone market, I think there is a reasonable chance Apple may match the 235 million units they sold back in FY 2015 if the rumored LCD devices turn out to be quite decent. Despite …

I think this is a new model that will be positioned as a smaller size companion the 6.1" LCD device. It would also jibe with Ming's rumor of a new LCD device starting at around $500. That would actually be a decent lineup for Apple in the fall. 4…

Warren Buffett is a very smart man who takes a long-term view of his investments. He does cash flow analysis in determining value and his main concern is not stock price fluctuations but rather if can the company pay him back with the cash they gen…

I'll just point this out since the headline can easily be misinterpreted. iPhone revenue was up 14%. iPhone unit sales were up less than 3%. That is an important distinction as it shows the growth is from increased pricing as opposed to increased…
