700 Billion...
Thats one sick pile of money..
And people here say Obama phones don't create wealth..
Fuck Crapple gay shit!
They're done.
And when is S&W gonna make a smart phone revolver??
"And when is S&W gonna make a smart phone revolver??"
From what I hear, the use of chips/computer technology in guns is coming (even in the civilian part of the market). It's just not here quite yet.
Unfortunate, but probably is coming. So are they going to try to make it mandatory to 'upgrade' the hundreds of millions of privately owned guns in the country? Good luck with that....
Margin compression ! har
I wonder when does this mania end?
Tuesday..the same Tuesday Whimpy re-pays you for the hamburger you gave him today.
If computers, phones and cameras are anything to go by, computerised guns should be avoided like the plague.
Just about to shoot something / someone and then you have to wait for the damn thing to turn on. Squeeze the trigger, just about to fire and then suddenly it pauses and starts downloading one of 224 updates.
On the plus side, you get time to cool down and think about whether or not that sucker really is worth a bullet (or a cage), plus the "victim" gets a chance to escape.
Squeeze the trigger and a message appears on the screen: "We have the new SuperX-Ploding bullet for 25% more damage. Would you like to upgrade?"
Yep, because lead just can't work without electronics. Wonder how hard it will be to remove the electronic parts? Will a simple dunk in water do it, or will you need to 3d print replacements?
It will be trivial to remove these measures as long as the gun relies on a percussion system. Then again they can always make it a criminal offense to bypass any electronic safety measure. DMCA is coming to your guns people.
Done? Are you suggesting that having a 700 billion dollar cash buffer is "done"?
Can I be "done" too?
Not to be pedantic, but it ain't 700 BB in pile. It's mkt cap.
Its is the thing hope and bullshit are made of.
I had to google pedantic...
If you can't make money streaming or mailing movies to Americans so they don't even have to leave the house, you just can't make money.
I shit you not, no exaggeration: In my country, the "download a video" stream is sooooooo slow that it is quicker just to get in your car, drive down to the video shop, sift through the movies and hire one. And the expense is no different.
Errr, WAS quicker. And more entertaining. A lot of video shops have closed down, much to my distress. I couldn't save them all single-handed.
Why does the second chart have MSFT stock price into 2019?
That's the hope and change working.
Tyler has travelled back in time to bring us knowledge on MSFT. Unfortunately now we are in a temporal paradox.
Yellen is bullish though, so no worries: the Fed is going to run some Relativistic QE and fix the distortion in the space-time continuum.
Nothing says efficient market like the largest market cap company in the world adding 20% in a fucking month and 50% in a year
I would pay cash money just to see the apple cult disappear from the face of the earth. It's just another sign of the times that a fetish product maker is the most valued company on earth.
Watch the Christmas season, come the new year that magic number will disappear. Of course certain 'special' people will have dumped their stock by then.
Aapl market cap moving up 1% a day for 20 days
7 billion a day?....
This won't end well
The other day a direct tv sales person called trying to get me signed back up. I told him I now have netflix at 8 bucks a month and there was no way I would be paying 50 to 100 dollars a month again. He said but you won't be able access content which was nonsense as I still have local channels. I know they (big cable and satellite) fear and hate netflix, which is understandable. I told him if they had given me the choice of channels (a la cart) instead of shoving the oprah channel down my throat I might have stayed. As he kept talking I hung up. Seems to me they should shut the fuck up and start listening to their customer base more, instead of telling me what I wanted. hehehe.
YES!!!...we already have the government to tell us what we want.
"And has entirely decoupled from its MSFT analog..."
I have to admit I was wrong about that one. I was one of those calling for a Microsoft-like flattening after AAPL fell precipitously from it's $750/share peak. It worked like a charm for a year or so. I missed the run-back-up the last year, not that I didn't hold any of it, but I was definitely not overweight.
If anything fell apart it was probably that AAPL never traded at the ridiculous P/E like MSFT did at it's peak. Sure, AAPL hit a market cap bigger than Exxon, but the P/E was never 40:1 or 400:1 or 4000:1 like the "Dot Com 2.0" stocks trade.
The Proper Equations:
"Long" Holders of AAPL since 2012 have NOT Outperformed the SPX nor the US Ten Year in 2014....
YIELD, Not Market Cap is the ONLY thing that matters......
Everything Else is Noise, and Irrelevant......
Biggest bubble ever
I wonder if Reggie M as seen this. What would Aapl be worth in Bitcoins?
I'm all for the first Trillion dollar listed company. I thought that the Alibaba listing (right to profits not actual ownetship) was market top but go the "Trillions".
Economist Michael Hudson pointed out during the MMT conference in Italy that the value of NY city real estate now exceeds the total value of all US industrial plant and equipment. If true - and I presume it is - look out when it unwinds...
Hudson's world view is skewed by that wacky Marx.

blows that old man out of the water...too bad so many have died fighting for his erroneous thesis.
wow, that is 100 dollar for each member of our happy global family, minus me.
So Apple has more leverage than the U.S. Treasury? I have to check later.
Apple's 7 to 1 stock split via June 9th of this year seems to be working out very well for them.
