After the Bakken, my favorite "story" is Apple.
The big story this year with regard to Apple: India.
I can't keep up with everything re: Apple and I don't understand India at all and of all the things I don't understand I am incredibly intrigued by India but for now, for me, India is simply overwhelming and I won't be posting many stories about India or about India-Apple. It's just too overwhelming for me, and ...
... I was going to say something else, about investing ... but we'll let it go.
Back to Apple-India, or is it India-Apple?
This is huge.
