These articles really should include details of Apple's guidance for the quarter as that's all that really matters. Not some made up figure by analysts based on rumors and small pieces of the puzzle.

I think you're correct in general, i.e. the guidance is very accurate.  (I'm impressed with their accuracy and I don't really understand how they achieve it.)  But in this case specifically, as of today, Apple has not given us any guidance for the December quarter.  I think they'll give it to us in two or three weeks.  So I'm very interested in the notes to investors that these analysts write, and I'm quite pleased that AI report on them.

Are you sure about that?  Never is a long, long time.

On a similar note, since Ireland will leave with Britain that means Apple's deal with the Irish will no long be under the scrutiny of the idiots on Brussels. 

You know that Ireland and the UK are different countries, right?  Ireland is not leaving the EU.  There's a chance that North Ireland (which is part of the UK), will stay with the UK and therefore leave the EU.  But there's also a chance that North Ireland will leave the UK and remain in the EU.  Either way, the Irish will still be scrutinized by the good people of Brussels.

but [Obama's] FBI declared these warnings to be Islamaphobia. 

What's your source or evidence that the FBI declared these warnings to be Islamaphobia?  I haven't heard that and I've been paying attention.

I love Apple's products, and I'm one of the biggest fans around, and me using anything else is pretty much inconceivable, but if Apple keeps towing the line of political partisanship and extremism, then I would definitely have to reconsider my options in the future.

Opposing Donald Trump is not being extremist.  Trump is the only thoroughly indecent, unqualified person to be nominated for the presidency in our lifetimes.  I think it's safe to assume the Board of Directors supported Tim Cook in this decision.
