still an hour till midnight in ABQ but i'll start tomorrow's thread anyway... this thread is dedicated to chinacat. (this is about tim cook's stanford commencement speech) instead of reading the story above or most daily aapl news (not much with aapl specifically as we wait for fed and trump/xi g20 trade war developments) i highly recommend just watching the full video: 2019 Stanford Commencement address by Tim Cook
It's an excellent speech, imo... there's a touching and poignant eulogy of sorts to steve jobs within the speech, but it ends on a very positive note...
p.s. oh, and to a certain troll... here's a direct quote from early on in tim cook's speech: "Here on father's day let's give the dads in particular a round of applause!" (rapturous applause follows )

that supports my hunch that AAPL would be at ATHs if not for trade war... up 3% on just news of a meeting scheduled between trump and xi? at a g20 summit where they would have met anyway? wow...
just tempering near-term expectations here... wilbur ross was pouring some cold water in last couple of days, saying don't expect a deal at the g20... that the best we can hope for is a resumption of talks after early may blow-up...
i'll wheee when i see it trade solidly above $210 where it was after last earnings, and whee some more at ATH... the direction is is right though!
cheers to the longs!

I have been overwhelmed by the very kind messages that I have received, both directly and in the daily threads. Many thanks to all who reached out. Also... I couldn't resist posting A teenager didn’t come home. An iPhone app led her mother to a ravine. There are certainly aspects of the story that could elicit snide remarks, but I am sure that most of us, especially those who are parents, will resist the temptation.

That also reminded me of www.cultofmac.com/629708/apple-watch-rescue/. Apple needs to create a campaign of "Saved by Apple". People saved by the find my friend, Apple Watch location, or being notified of heart problems with their watch. I know of a few of these stories.
