Not many speculating on this. Why would they need such a large auditorium? If this were true and that's a big if, i would speculate that they had to reserve this a long time ago and they expected to launch the new Apple TV with the subscription service and so they wanted to invite many more people in addition to all the Watch people they'll want to continue inviting. Or they need the space to show off the new hydrogen fuel cell powered Apple Cars (wishful thinking).

From Zero Hedge "Here is a better way of summarizing it: the last three times inflation expectations tumbled this low, the Fed was about to launch QE1, QE2, Operation Twist and QE3." Zero Hedge is a permabear. True Mace but they are not the only ones coming out with this. Heard again this morning on TV. Keynesian economics is alive and well as the market teeters. Not a fan but I feel I am ready for the poison fruit it will produce---just hoping Apples aren't among them.

Not exactly the rebound we had hoped for . IMHO there are too many great stocks out there on sale so money is being spread around ... If I had any capital left there would be lots of companies I would consider ... We are setting ourselves up for a nice pop when the iPhone announcement comes ... Well I hope we are ?

Nobody mentioned the Fed meeting in Jackson Hole this Thursday, 8/27/15.
I think that's the cause of this whole thing.
They're looking for an excuse to keep interest rates low.
I think they got it.

Agreed. But technically the reason not to raise interest rates is when there is no sign of inflation anywhere and that is clearly the case now. And Keynesian stimulus is happening now in a big way it's just not coming from the fed or the government. The change in oil and gas prices is a huge pile of money put in most people's pocket on a weekly basis. Likely the equal of a two thousand a year tax cut. This will be seen in increased spending for a number of months to come. I suspect Christmas will be huge this year. There will be some counter balance with oil patch job losses but it pales in comparison to the benifits

Not a fan but I feel I am ready for the poison fruit it will produce---just hoping Apples aren't among them. Why don't you cut out the political crap! I believe you were the only one who mentioned politics. Discussing economic theories and their affect on the stock market and AAPL is only political if you choose to make it so. I did not. In other words if I think QE4 will have a net negative affect without mentioning who favors it or who does not (in the political world), it is an economics discussion not a political one. I am a supply sider and you are not so what is political about that? Eric in Austin apparently agrees with Keynes without being political which I have no problem with. in this country we are free to believe in the economic system we choose, aren't we? So are you for or against QE4 or would you rather see the Fed raise rates and what will be the short and long term results of both?

Have you ever considered that you just might be too sensitive of a person to negotiate the scary, mean Internet world? I mean, it's not going to adapt to you anytime soon. Perhaps you should consider IRL-only interactions, where you can more easily limit harmful words coming into your ears. It's much easier to select only people who agree with your worldview in person. Just a thought.

Kind of like discussing an downtick in the unemployment rate as a possible good thing for the economy and for AAPL, for which you jumped me for being political. You are a hypocrite, but we already knew that.
