Gregg Thurman on A Christmas Carol from Apple - 'really can’t get into it You’re not alone.'
on A Christmas Carol from Apple - 'I keep looking at this, the comments and the trailer, etc. and really can’t get into it. Something must be wrong with me… I’ll keep trying.'
on Tim Cook likes his Nikes - 'Michael: Any thoughts on Alphabet, the Gemini 3 model and the prospects of an AI services deal with Apple? In other words, are you interested in investing in Alphabet at this time?'
on A Christmas Carol from Apple - 'My guess: It’s to make a point: A dozen humans in a high tech world, who get whatever they want from billions of the most willing of slaves. Even an atomic bomb…. Hell of a social message, don’t you think? And not dissimilar to the message delivered about 20 centuries ago….'
on Happy Holidays from Apple 3.0 - 'Wife said she noticed the print first thing, but she was too focused on making today’s dessert to mention it for a couple hours 🙂'
on Happy Holidays from Apple 3.0 - 'Merry Christmas to all! It’s been a pretty good year ’round here. PED, I understand from one of my old teachers in New Hampshire that that layer of snow was, in fact, a gift received in New England on Christmas Eve Day – or perhaps Christmas Eve Eve. Lovely! Best to all. David'
on Apple closed at $273.81 for Christmas. Look who's underwater now - 'Good catch! Thanks. Corrected.'
on Tim Cook likes his Nikes - '@Robert: I haven’t tried any of Lamb Weston’s products. But they do have quite a variety of potato items beyond just french fries. Still staying with NVIDIA. This back and forth with them being able to sell chips to China could wind up being quite an added benefit to revenues and earnings if it finally gets approved. Icing on the cake as they say. That will be a good horse race between NVIDIA and Broadcom. Much like “Seabiscuit and War Admiral.” I had followed Broadcom back before they split 10 for 1. Probably should have taken a small position at that time. But I’m reluctant to sell any Apple. Just using their dividends to keep diversifying amongst companies that fall out of favor but are still quite profitable. The best of both worlds. I might pull the trigger on Clorox if it drops a bit further. A quality company with a dividend that’s pretty safe as a consumer staple. Merry Christmas. Like you, I enjoy the Southern California weather as I don’t even like seeing snowflakes on weather updates from the rest of the country. Stay dry.'
on Apple: Et tu Brazil? - 'It’s easier than that: just highlight the word and select “Look Up” in the resulting popup menu.'
on Apple closed at $273.81 for Christmas. Look who's underwater now - 'Notwithstanding all the issues with analysts, I think there re way too few “under water” this time. We need that Santa Clause rally! (Even if I never believed in Santa! 🙁 ) (Maybe this is my punishment .)'
on Tim Cook likes his Nikes - 'Or perhaps it’s just Cook buying goodwill with Nike? $3m is not exactly breaking his bank account. Cook did as much with Trump with his inauguration … , why not with your partners. I say it’s strategic. It may not make him an amazing return, but he won’t loose on it. (Happy whatever’s, at this time of the season)'
