Look out, I'm back! ;-) You guys did a fine job while I was away, with AAPL almost $4 higher than when I left.
I know this is not an entertainment board, but for those who are interested: Neil Young was very good... the Stones, Sir Paul, and the Who were outstanding...but Roger Waters blew the doors off the place with a spectacular outdoor multi-media extravaganza and a splendid mix of greatest hits from the various Pink Floyd albums.
Now, on to $120!

Samsung's new Note 7 Refund & Exchange program (which goes live October 13th at 15:00ET) will let customers choose between the following: up to $100 bill credit if they exchange a Note 7 for "any Samsung smartphone," or $25 in credit if they exchange a Note 7 "for a refund or other branded smartphone." (As Samsung makes clear, you get more money for sticking with the company's brand as "a sign of our appreciation for your [...] loyalty.") www.theverge.com/2016/10/13/13267674/samsung-note-7-refund-exchange-official

Trees go nicely with cars as decor It has the same vibe as the San Fran store. I have a friend who was at today's launch. He says it's opening on Saturday at 10am. Glass staircase gone, replaced with an escalator. Angela was there. Looks very interesting. Ironically I walked past the store last Saturday, wondering when it might reopen. Well I have my answer now.

The old Apple store had a theatre on the mezzanine level with very comfortable seating. Those wood boxes in the new store don't seem to have much padding... www.engadget.com/2016/10/13/apple-store-redesign-regent-street-london/#gallery=449846&slide=4231217&index=20From Apple's website: "The store team at Regent Street has increased more than 500 percent over the past 12 years, as Apple introduced iPhone, iPad, Apple TV and Apple Watch. The 512 employees span more than 20 nationalities and speak over 30 languages. Of the 100 employees who originally opened the store, more than a quarter remain at Apple"

Oh, one more AAPL related thing: support for ApplePay was almost universal at Desert Trip. Gotta love those Boomer demographics!

Interesting PED note came out his evening:
Munster: 79% of U.S. teens want an Apple iPhone - Nearly three out of four already have one.
Twice a year, Piper Jaffray researchers canvas thousands of U.S. teenagers to get a snapshot of their preferences in everything from designer jeans to smartphones. In a note to clients Thursday, Gene Muster reported on the results of his firm's latest Teen Survey as it relates to tech.
From his report:
Apple's share of smartphone ownership among teens spiked in our most recent Teen Survey (10,0074 respondents). 74% of teens said they have an iPhone vs 69% in Spring-16 and 79% of teens expect their next device to be an iPhone vs 75% in the Spring. This is the largest survey/survey change we've seen since Spring to Fall-14, which was the launch of the iPhone 6.

I will just hide this at the end of a long day, but here is a paper that might explain why Apple is always so undervalued. It is a little technical and there will be math, but skimming it give the general idea. Keep in mind that Apple is the most widely held stock, so if this is correct, it would apply to Apple more than anyone. ms.mcmaster.ca/~grasselli/DeLongShleiferSummersWaldmann90.pdfEnjoy. This will be on your final

I don't recognize many names in economics, but I hardly think Brad De Long or Larry Summers would publish in a disreputable university.
