They’ll probably announce the biggest stock buyback of any company in history.

They should rise their dividend yield to the old standard around 1.5 %
Personally I'd like to see a shift more from buybacks to increasing dividend rate. The least couple of dividend increases have been on the low side. The current Yield is now ~0.5%. I'm really long in AAPL and at the point in my life where I would rather have the flexibility and get larger dividends which I could then chose to reinvest (buy more shares) or use for other purposes vs with the buyback model of having to sell shares I've owned for 25+ years.

It’ll be their best quarter ever. Until the next quarter.
Actually that is true but not in the way you implied

TSMC says demand for smartphones, PCs starting to slow - Niekki Asia 3/30

TSMC, like other chipmakers, has been struggling to meet demand amid a global semiconductor shortage that emerged in late 2020.

The chairman's remarks come as global institutions have lowered their forecasts for economic growth this year. The International Monetary Fund is set to trim its global forecast for 2022 in April due to the Ukraine war and macroeconomic uncertainty in a number of countries. The IMF previously estimated 4.4% global growth for the year. China, the world's second-largest economy, set a growth target of 5.5% this year, the lowest in 30 years.

Their stock is just like their products -- overpriced.

Not a stock expert, but if everyone that had AAPL sold it, what would it be worth?
Well, that’s my point. No one is selling it, they’re buying it because Apple is a successful company that makes great products people love to own and use. AAPL keeps going up because more and more people are coming on board as customers. More people think Apple products are priced just right than overpriced so they buy them. I know this hurts your eyes to read but reality can be tough to accept.
