  • Gregg Thurman on Premarket: Apple is green - 'Bart, I think institutional buyers could be holding back a bit (starting today), waiting for confirmation is Duo demand through pre-orders. They have nibbled, but haven’t committed.'
  • Joseph Bland on Premarket: Apple is green - 'Hi, Bart. By 2:15 PM over 40 M shares were traded. I highly doubt the difference was due that much to after-hours trading. As I pointed out yesterday to John , you have to wait a bit to get the true EOD AAPl volume. Note that volume is still under average (which is 53.3 M trades), but not unduly so. Also, the selling was on top of a spike over $340/share from post-pre-market buying. LOTS of volatility from options! This coming quarter will be very interesting! Of course, there’s the ancient Chinese saying about living in “interesting times”….'
  • Bart Yee on Premarket: Apple is green - 'Only 26.7M shares, half the current 3 month average so a very lackluster day. Without additional Apple News, will probably float along with the market unless some positivity comes from China/US talks or Middle East improvements (unlikely). But once Duo preorders start, all hell may break loose if demand is higher than Apple’s supply chain can handle.'
  • Bart Yee on Premarket: Apple is green - 'Sadly, we need to remember how short life can be: “ Father-of-three Apple engineer, 35, killed after boat struck rocks and capsized in San Francisco Bay A fishing vessel with three people on board struck rocks and capsized by the Golden Gate Bridge’s north tower shortly after 6am on Thursday. https://apple.news/A6QXgpO5LQdmqlOSsHjvpDw Prayers for the wife, 3 kids, and their family.'

  • Joseph Bland on Premarket: Apple is green - 'Over the last 6 months, AAPL has gone up, against stiff resistance, 35%. Over the last year, up 32.7%. Over the last 5 years, up 131%, or more than doubled. And those have been 5 tough years. As the number of remaining shareholders continues trending toward a larger percentage of long-term investors, the percentage volume of AAPL being sold keeps decreasing. AAPL thus becomes a progressively safer investment. Yes, there continue to be bouts of “crash-selling”, but their effectiveness in causing a panic out of AAPL are decreasing, to the point where we see Apple “correcting” within less than 2 months for the post-pre-market “crash-selling” following Apple’s last (fantastic) earnings report. Those presently holding AAPL are in for a rare increase in ROI from perhaps the safest stock investment in the world. Congrats to Apple longs!'
  • David Wilson on Premarket: Apple is green - 'Well, it was exciting for a while. Still, a win is a win.'
  • Brian M MacManus on British GQ considers the iPhone Duo - 'I contend there will be a setting to switch menus to either right or left hand usage, i hope to hell that is the case…'
  • Robert Paul Leitao on Premarket: Apple is green - 'We are now in the final few minutes of trading in today’s session. After soaring to a new all-time high of $345.34 at the start of trading, Apple’s shares are now up $0.97 at $339.95. The shares are up nearly 10% over the past month and over 25% year-to-date.'
  • Robert Paul Leitao on Premarket: Apple is green - 'Just a brief mention of Meta. The shares are up nearly 25% over the past month on optimism about its new AI agent. The shares are trading down $2.89 or 0.39% at $738.36 today while the company’s market cap hovers around $1.88 trillion.'
  • Robert Paul Leitao on This week's Apple trading strategies (9/21-9/25/26) - 'Thank you all for the feedback on John Gruber. As an Apple product enthusiast for 40 years now, I knew he was someone of significance and a person of influence within the global Apple community. I have never subscribed to Daring Fireball and don’t recall seeing him interviewed before. I am aware of his highly public and angry outbursts about Apple’s Siri and AI promises that were made and until now not fulfilled. I am also aware of his apparent “fall from grace” with Apple’s senior management. That’s why all the more when I saw the description of video clip I was hoping to encounter a lively and engaged John Gruber because I’m a big believer in second chances and we’ve all had “off moments” in life. Someone with a seemingly dour outlook on Apple and its products is not what I expected to witness over the four minutes of the interview I watched. I have no desire or intent to criticize him. For those that find value in his work, I do hope he can continue to provide good value to his subscribers for years to come.'
  • Bart Yee on Flying to Toulouse, biking to Bordeaux - 'Safe travels and biking, hope you take lots of Spatial photos and videos to relive or share. Wonder if you can get a handlebar or stem mount for your 17 Pro and be able to mount it looking forward so you can see everything ahead of you? That type of spatial video is what I’m after.'
  • Richard Gayle on British GQ considers the iPhone Duo - 'I also expect that Apple’s metaphor of the Duo being like a notebook was a key view. There are no left or right handed notebooks. Nor left/right handed paperbacks. We will find out if that was a proper viewpoint when people actually handle the device.'
  • Stephen Gordon on Apple's new London venue is perfect for immersive video - 'Stones for the main event, Radiohead for the encore.'
  • Robert Paul Leitao on Premarket: Apple is green - 'This is a good way to start the day! After spiking to a new all-time high Apple is now trading up $3.34 or 0.99% at $342.32. While Apple’s hitting new highs JPMorgan (and much of the financial sector) is facing a much more challenging day. The big bank is trading off $12.74 or 3.62% at $339.30. It is a mixed day on the Street yet equities with advancing share prices on the S&P 500 are out numbering equities with declining prices. 56% of index components are currently in the green.'
  • ben luna on British GQ considers the iPhone Duo - 'Hi Romeo, Good question. Let me reply with a question informed by my experiences as a left handed person: when you get home carrying a bag of groceries, which hand holds the bag and which operates the keys when you have to unlock and open the door? For me my right hand holds the bag and left hand unlocks and opens the door. So why does this matter? Well for me being left handed, holding my iPhone with my right hand frees my left hand to do the more precise work (ala operating the keys to unlock the door) of operating the phone’s touchscreen. So IMHO the Duo is better for left handed people, not worse. Same goes for the QWERTY keyboards that most of us use. You can take a sip of your coffee with your right hand while your left hand is typing.'
  • Rodney Avilla on In India, demand for Apple's latest has been 'phenomonal' - 'Gifting makes it free to the recipients. Doesn’t get any more affordable than that.'
  • Stephen Gordon on Flying to Toulouse, biking to Bordeaux - 'Lovely! Enjoy for those of us who can’t.'
  • Michael Goldfeder on Apple's new London venue is perfect for immersive video - 'They need to invite the Rolling Stones to perform and grant the 600 seats to PED’s Apple 3.0 subscribers. I’m making a reservation on Virgin Atlantic for that concert.'
  • Gregg Thurman on Premarket: Apple is green - '$345.34 is a new intraday all-time high and a $5T market cap.'
  • Robert Stack on Premarket: Apple is green - '“To the moon Alice!” With love, Ralph…'
  • Steven Philips on Premarket: Apple is green - 'Wow! Initial shot to 345 then quickly settled back down.'
  • Steven Philips on Flying to Toulouse, biking to Bordeaux - 'Ain’t retirement fun? 🙂'
  • David Emery on Flying to Toulouse, biking to Bordeaux - 'We enjoyed our time in Toulouse. There’s both gelato and baklava, I remember one store with display cases full of baklava and similar desserts in all colors. The museums were also very good. Anyway, safe travels!'
  • Greg Lippert on Apple's new London venue is perfect for immersive video - 'That is so cool.'
  • Romeo Esparrago on British GQ considers the iPhone Duo - 'Not a southpaw here in the South, but a good Q : what have left-handers done in the past and what’s the opportunities in the future, whether for  or for 3rd parties? Do accessibility alternatives exist today for the current iPhone models (since they’re not symmetrical either)?'
  • Romeo Esparrago on Apple: An hour with Mark Gurman and Nilay Patel (video) - '“Can John Ternus find Apple’s next big thing?” Plurally Yes, no duh. ::: swipe left :::'
  • Robert Paul Leitao on Premarket: Apple is red - 'Mike Wilson, Morgan Stanley’s CIO and Chief Equities Strategist, offers an update on the firm’s view of today’s market. I’m not endorsing or recommending Morgan Stanley. I just like the firm’s view of the market at this time. In general, share price advances are being fueled by profit growth and not earnings multiple expansion. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/market-resilience-isnt-complacency/id1466686717?i=1000790995295'
  • Robert Paul Leitao on Premarket: Apple is red - 'At today’s closing price of $615.52, representing a $55.70 or 9.95% rise on the day, AMD joined the $1 trillion market cap club. It’s currently the 14th enterprise traded on a US exchange with a market cap of $1 trillion or more.'
