  • Trump's 25% smartphone tariff starts just in time for the iPhone 17

    Apples biggest problem is not the 25% tariff it’s the fact that they’ve fallen behind on AI , Foldable iPhone etc. 
    People will pay for technology that’s state of the art with all the bells and whistles. Apple has to catch up on AI or buy a company and integrate it into Apples AI
    also Apple glasses everybody’s waiting let’s go

     . In the past few years I have only seen a handful of foldable phones out in the wild. But yet, it’s this thing that everyone says Apple needs to do. As for AI, I think the problem is that Apple is gotten in on the AI gimmick. It’s a trap all tech companies are getting themselves sucked into, creating a bubble that that it’s a matter of when and not if as to it bursting

    I'm going to so be pissed and relieved when, in the near future, Trump "suspends" this one and the price of AAPL surges back. Pissed because the profit all his insider-trader cronies will make; relieved because I have so much invested in AAPL.

    I wish I were so confident that his corruption outweighs his idiocy that I could afford to put my money where my mouth is (by acting like an insider trader knowing he's going to orchestrate a market boost for AAPL soon). Instead I'm just going to keep holding on and ride out the Trump chaos.
    "the price of AAPL surges back".. LMAO..

    Take a valuation. PE (FWD) x28. Single low digit growth while MSFT. META, AMZN, NVDA deliver double digit growth to justify their high PE (FWD). 

    Why should AAPL surge with their timid revenue growth? LOL. 

    AAPL is under pressure. AI is cooked. Even John Siracusa wants Tim to step down in his recent article "Turnaround". 

    But Apple fanboys don´t want to listen that AAPL is under pressure. 

    Have fun with tiny upgrades from year to year and you pay way more for iPhones. 

    AAPL is and remain the worst performer by end of this year. AAPL can´t surge. This rotten stock can stay low for awhile. 

    I agree with you - Trump need to be allowed the time to destroy all American companies (a good start with Apple) in his own special way so the rest of the world can move on without America being a constant pain in the you know where.


    It has nothing to do with Trump tbh. 
    Wearables sales are declining. It is hardly Trump fault. 
    Apple Intelligence is Apple Incompetency. Their on device AI has failed so far. But give Apple one year to fix it although I highly doubt they can fix it. 
    Their sales decline + Apple has lost their dominance in China. All these things have happened before Trump era. 

    And people justfy that AAPL will outperform? LOL .
    For long term investors, yes.. But you could also say to NVDA, Walrmart, Nike etc. that they should be fine for long-term. 

    Yes, Apple has had a rough start with their AI, but name one company whose initial AI venture has not been a complete dumpster fire. Have you forgotten crap like glue on pizzas, how people should eat rocks and other crap like that? Personally, I’d wish of Apple didn’t make this big AI push, it’s all a smoke show anyways where so much of it is trained off of stealing people’s intellectual properties

    Tim should just say “hey we’re working on moving iPhone production here” and just push the goalposts until he’s either out of office, or at least until the Midterms where hopefully the Democrats take control back in congress and take away his ability to issue tariffs on a whim. But there’s less than a week until June, he’ll probably change his mind several times. What they don’t want to do is hint that the tariffs will raise prices because he’ll throw a major fit

    Oh lord, don’t check the comments in the Wall Street Journal article about this, way too many people going on like “a $3,000 built in America iPhone is a lie, Apple builds MacBook Pros in Austin and it’s only $1,500!” Do they mean the Mac Pro? The device that is built in such a small scale?

  • China escalates US tariff war by halting rare earth mineral exports

    I guess it's a good thing Apple has pushed so heavily into recycling, it could make this sting a bit less
