Usual disclaimers apply.
Apple: wow, the technology is amazing. I assume this has been here all along, but I just noticed it --
- the dock at the bottom of my desktop Apple has all the usual icons: Firefox, Safari, Chrome, FaceTime, iMessage, iMusic, and a dozen others;
- this morning I noticed "Firefox From MacBook Air" which links the desktop from my MacBook Air
- how cool is that
Apple:
- huge buying opportunity.
Tampa, FL:
- apparently this is a huge port for Florida for gasoline and fertilizer
- Florida gets most of its gasoline by ship to Tampa, FL, from Texas, Louisiana refineries
- fertilizer: ecologic disaster with the storm surge
Bezos:
- wife -- the one he divorced back in 2021, or thereabouts -- has just divorced her second husband
- Bezos: fist pump
Buffett:
- just bought another 5.99 million shares of OXY
- open-book test
- essay question: is Buffett telling us something?
California:
- gasoline just got a lot more expensive
- and that state isn't experiencing a hurricane
Biden administration:
- warning oil companies not to increase the price of gasoline in light of current conditions
- oh, how badly, SecEnergy wants to nationalize XOM, CVX,
CVX:
- moving to Texas; old news, but big story in The WSJ
Jones Act:
- Biden temporarily waives Jones Act for Puerto Rico
- some irony here, I suppose
- Florida, next -- oh, that's right -- Florida is a red state
Laser-focused on dividends
- will do a stand-alone post on dividend news
- companies are going to find out that investors want dividends, not stock buybacks
- Apple: bought a lot of its own stock -- could have paid dividends -- stock plummets 4% in one day
- not sure how stock buybacks helped investors
- and, oh, by the way, it looks like Apple bought high
