Notes From All Over -- Early Evening Edition -- December 15, 2020

AAPL
In case you missed it, re-posting from earlier this morning:

AAPL: The report is very likely bogus or planted, but it is what it is.There are reports that Apple is telling its suppliers to ramp up iPhone 12 production by a whopping 30%. Link here.

Following that post, Yahoo!Finance had the interview with Wedbush Managing Director Dan Ives discussing Apple and then ... well, the rest is history. Archived.

AAPL is still well off it's all-time highs.

After hours, AAPL is holding.
