I know I am going to sound like some grumpy old man. But this was music. There's no N word. No threats. No incomprehensible unintelligible rhymes that are endlessly repeated for no reason. It's a beautiful song with great rhythm with meaningful words. Which I guess would never get any views on tok tok today. Sad
Apple stores were JAMMED all weekend. While people love the various IPhone 17 models, the Air is the surprise hit. People cannot believe it once they hold it in their hands. I was in the flagship store on 5th Avenue and just watched (and bought the new air Pods which are through the roof amazing!!!). And here's the thing. While the stores in China were JAMMED with buyers, the Air was not available as Apple awaits Chinese approval for the chip that is in the Air. Once the Air hits the stores in China the sales will be through the roof. A lot of this is pent up demand as people did not change models with the 15 and 16 so now they are ready. And some of this is just the homerun the 17 models are. And AI is not yet factored into the Apple universe and revenue yet. But I am willing to bet Apple will get AI right and do it better than anyone is expecting. So what does that mean? 270 is a fair number by end of this year. 400 by end of next year once the 17 fully incorporates the Apple AI and the full revenue from China hits. I didn't invent this saying, Jim Cramer did. But you OWN Apple, you do not trade it. Oh, and wait until the 18 when they have the foldable phone - with the screens made by OLED which continues to go sideways for reasons I cannot comprehend. But when Apple has a foldable? OMG it will dominate in ways we haven't seen in 20 years.
I don't like a foldable phone. Extra step to open, moving parts to break. Others may like them, but not me. Thanks to DJT for getting Tim Cook/Apple to pledge 600 billion in the USA and not China or India.

Thanks for the stock tip Rump. If I ever meet you in person, I’m buying lunch. P.S. I’m allergic to shell fish and any type of nuts.
