Good morning everyone. Apparently the Korean War of Words is on hiatus. Except for the Nikkei, markets are GREEN. AAPL is GREEN as well trading at $158.70 +1.22 (0.77%). How long until it tops $160 again? Not much in the news this morning. Bloomberg has Apple, India and Those Foxconn Earnings. Have a great day. Let's make money.

Have you noticed how there is usually a major threat every time the defense authorization bill is up for renewal? Last time it was ISIS, now NK. The bill has passed the house and now is in the Senate. I will be interesting to see how quickly the NK crisis is resolved after the bill is passed. Not to be cynical, of course. and I don't mean this politically, it has been going on since WWII

The part of Google may have paid Apple $3 billion to remain the iPhone's default search engine that I find most interesting is: "But Bernstein dug through Apple's filings and found that licensing revenues, like those Google pays Apple, is actually the biggest or second biggest contributor to services growth." There is more detail in the article, but this was an aspect of "services" of which I hadn't been aware.

Apple Watch has huge potential and very little competition. It could definitely bring some people to iPhone and at the very least keep people in the iOS ecosystem.
Berkshire filings shows that they increased their AAPL further.
