  • Apple stock bloodbath continues after China applies retaliatory tariffs

    thedbathedba

    President Trump is currently golfing, but spoke to reporters prior to his departure when asked about the impact of his tariffs. 

    Par for the course, no pun intended.


    "The markets are going to boom... the stock is going to boom," he added. "The country is going to boom."

    So I guess we now know what a million dollar cash gift to Trump buys you: nothing. 
    $1M is only a buy in. If you really want influence you gotta go into Miriam Adelson territory —> $100M
    Or Elon shoot for the stars (even though Starship will never get there) territory —> $270M

    I thought only the finished Apple products were imported to the US.
    The parts should ship directly to the factories and bypass tarrifs.
    The only tariffs are for the final products imported to the US and Apple could absorb that or get it waived.
    Moreover Apple could have stocked up before the tariff announcements and the tariffs may be over before stock is depleted.

    So it is not sooo bad for Apple.

    The market makers are just messing with Apple stocks.


    Apple is it a charity if you want to buy something from Apple, you better buy it within the next month because the price will be going up.
    Yep! Get your iPhone 16 (any variation) now, because all iPhone 17’s are definitely going up. 
    Unless he backs down, like he would often do during his 1st term, but back then there may have been some adults supervising him. Now who’s going to go against him? JD? Marco?  They’re all YES MEN.

    So much for a certain person donating a cool million to a certain persons fund and being welcomed into the "tent" and kissing the ring. Looks like T.C got the short end of the stick even with TSMC  build a fab for processors.
    Didn't president "bone spurs" kill the CHIPS act signed by Biden that was to bring some microprocessor manufacturing back to the US?
    Is that plant still going on line in Arizona?

    Edit: Forget my question about the plant in Arizona. It's already on line as stated by Appleinsider back in January 8.  Malcolm Owen's article -->

    Wow! Here we are 32 replies in and not a single “Dislike” from the MAGA Muppets.
    Allow me to be the first to get a “Dislike”. 

    On the lighter side, let’s start a pool. 
    What will be the base price of the standard iPhone come September. Not the Pro nor the Max.
    Today’s price of the iPhone 16 is $799 (US dollars)
    Choices:
    1) Stay the same
    2) $899
    3) $999
    4) More than $999
