  • Apple's valuation will fall to less than $3 trillion for the worst reasons

    larryjwlarryjw
    It's "simple" math that in order for a company to grow at the same rate over the years, its revenues must be growing exponentially. Given Apple's size, that's simply not going to happen. Unless they create new sources of growth. Services, VisionPro, Project Titan, AppleGPT, Apple Bank. There is no reason -- there's plenty of reason --  to expect the phone business to (not) maintain that growth rate. 

    As for the stock price, it's up to investors like Berkshire-Hathaway to decide what they're willing to pay. For the rest of us, we're just going along  for the ride.

    Giving Kanye West a run for his money. Is it Ye? Later Xe? Just a glaring nutcase.

  • TSMC sends more Taiwanese workers to finish Arizona plant

    Previously, TSMC engineers in Taiwan have complained that Americans don't work hard enough, and "are the most difficult to manage."

    So did anyone else see the documentary film "American Factory?" Same scenario except the company is run by a PRC businessman who buys a closed GM plant in Ohio, and makes auto glass. He hires Americans laid off by GM, saving the town from economic death, but wages are half what they made before they made nothing. He had the same complaints, and add in unionization efforts, when American workers are expected to work extra hours without pay. And of course the bosses are all Chinese and have the same racist tendencies as the Americans who work for them.

    But apparently they've reached accord, or at least detente, since Fuyao Glass America is still operating there.
    The movie was interesting. As regards to racist tendencies I noticed typical management ignorance. The Americans had a much harder time working near the furnaces, That's not laziness but basic physics/biology. The Americans are substantially larger than their Chinese counterparts. Large animals cannot dissipate heat as efficiently as small animals -- elephants have big ears for a reason. The larger American men working near the ovens simply dissipate the heat of the furnaces as well as Chinese workers. 

    Wouldn't it be nice, and surprising if managers actually had some basic knowledge?

    This place is cringe when bulls*t articles like this appear. This tech already exists, has existed for years, and is in use in countless hospitals around the globe.
    Apple didn't invent anything new. 
    I'm sure Apple has many patents of the Vision Pro. That means they DID invent something new according to the patent office. 
    You’re sure, so that means they did?  USPTO references or get laughed out of town.
