AAPL -- Apple -- Re-Cap -- November 12, 2023

Locator: 46036AAPL.

AAPL: I completely missed it. AAPL had an incredible day at the end of the week — trending toward an all-time high — and with 4Q23 earnings behind it, nothing but tailwinds. Except for one thing and all investors are aware.

One day:

But the big story? Look where AAPL is trading -- near its all-time high. And a year ago, AAPL was trading at $134. 

Most of this gain has been during the last twenty years, and the huge gain has been post-Covid-19.

I've been posting this for quite some time:

Apple, a $3-trillion-market cap company. Right, wrong, indifferent, I break it down this way:

  • $1 trillion: hardware with integrated software, e.g., iPhones, laptops, desktops
  • $1 trillion: services, e.g., cloud services; TV+; music; Siri;
  • $1 trillion: Apple Silicon, the chip division.

CNBC truly did its listeners a disservice when they reported Apple's earnings. They gave Berkshire / Warren Buffet a pass of course, but failed to look a bit deeper into Apple's 4Q23 earnings. In fact, they were spectacular and "everybody" missed it ... until they researched it themselves. 

This graphic, I'm pretty sure, has never been shown on CNBC. Link here

If China scares you, Apple has pivoted to India.
