Jim Cramer annoys me immensley and is tolerable in small doses. But with the Exception of Tim on tonight, I Will tune in. Sold my stock last year.
 
Tim Cook is desperate. Prepare for the usual talking points, "Apple is as innovative as we've ever been", etc. But running Apple is like being the Governor of California. It is almost impossible to do well, unless you are someone like Steve Jobs.

Without someone like him at the helm, Apple will be unmanageable. The problem isn't that Tim Cook is a bad CEO (I don't think he is). I just think that Apple requires a very unique individual at the helm. Unfortunately that kind of person is 1 in 6 billion (give or take).
 
"Every is 'A' o-kay!" "No worries here, Jim. Our Famous ex-share holder dumped his share due to lack of confidence, but we got it covered."
-camera points at his head....sweating on his forehead.-
-Tim smiling-

i kind of expect tim cook to delve deeper into the viability of him buying another company. that'd be interesting, industries he's looking into and the size of the potential acquistione tc
 
"Apple's future in China, his outlook on innovation, what's next for the iPhone, Apple Watch, and Apple services, and whether Apple is pursuing any potential acquisitions."

China: slowing, headwinds, working on resolving iTunes shutdown, still many opportunities there;
Innovation: it's a good thing, we always invest during declines and uncertainty, it will be Christmas-eve for a while yet;
What's next for phone and watch: improvements;
Services: improvements and better experience;
Acquisitions: we are a serial acquirer of companies but we don't talk about this.

But I will enjoy the iview just the same.

Sold my stock at just over $700/share. Guess I got lucky on both ends of the deal. Bought a boat load when Apple was young and nearly unknown. Figured at just $20/share I'd gamble. Thanks Apple.
 
Apple has the cash to buy about 1/3 of the S&P 500. Pick the fastest growers with a moat around their business and just buy them. There's a use for cash.

Then go private.

They could buy several big banks and commodity manufacturing firms for under book value and simplify them.

It's funny, Apple breaks all historic worldwide records for earnings and the stock still goes down, at least early on; Apple's sales slow down mostly because of market saturation, and the stock goes down. But one has strong meaning while the other one somehow doesn't. This stock market thing is a funny thing indeed (pretty much in any/all meanings of "funny").
