Apple Briefly Becomes World's First $3 Trillion Company

[mi7chy]

While Apple may not be shipping junk in 2022

Who ships a new product with OS memory leak that consumes GBs and is still unfixed months after launch?

I guess the regular consumer market doesn’t care about the LCD or jelly scrolling.

Not to worry...

Regular consumers won't be making a video at 240 FPS of their iPads scrolling text and then playing it back at 30 FPS, as YouTuber testers do, in order to see it.

This also illustrates just how flawed the strategy has been by many VCs lately !

AAPL achieved this milestone because many VC funded efforts that made it to market have flopped recently.

If VCs had done a better job, NO way would AAPL hit $3T USD !

May NOT have even hit $2T USD !

Imagine - an Apple Military, an Apple Government, Apple Grocery, and Apple Religion. Apple Society. Apple Computers was just the beginning my friend.

Frightening. You've just described "1984"

I hear you, bro.

And the square root of 9 is no longer 3.

That would be 144 I-Phone-13s

If they spend some of that money on R&D so that they can release products that can wow the customers, that would bring back the Apple Steve created.

 

[0924487]

Perhaps they could afford to pay the talent more and keep them from defecting to Zucks dystopia?

How did you think they reached that number?

 

[0924487]

Foxconn, not Apple.

If they squeeze Foxconn, what do you expec?

Remember when Apple was pushing suppliers and factory workers so hard that the suppliers had to install nets to prevent their employees from jumping out of the windows?

 

[chetzar]

They need to spend some of that skrilla to fix iOS 15 and, you guessed it, the CarPlay issues.

I’m pretty sure he’s not getting a t-shirt and Apple pins 😂

Must be the stickers then😏.

Apple should buy and govern Australia. I would shred my US Passport and move there in an instant.

35% exit tax, if I remember correctly.

Interesting how Apple reached their trillion marks in even-numbered years (2018, 2020, and now 2022). Hmm.

Cmaier, when you assume you make an "a**" out of "u" and "me". 🤣
Actually, I have.
I also watched the 1 minute long TV adaptation many times, but I still believe the book is better.

Having also read it many times, I don’t recall anything about the problem being an Apple government.

 

[Craptastic]

Good, they should pay their retail employees better and in-line for inflation.

It's only my opinion, but I believe that Apple wants to stay the course and not change directions. They probably don't care to go back to the Apple that Steve created.

Good, good, memory holes do their job.

Seriously: seriously?

For some reason, in today's world, many folks are delighted with some big corporation being wealthier beyond comprehension.

As well as people who get irrationally angry too. I recommend getting some hot buttered popcorn and enjoy the show.
