NBC's resident goof says: "I got news for them ... when they're ready with Vision Pro, we're all going to get one," Cramer said. He expects the headset to be a game changer for experiences, especially live events. You can feel as if you are in the front row of a Taylor Swift concert, for example, when using the headset."
I expressed I think the sales will surprise to the upside so I actually agree with him, though don't know who everyone is. The war drones, industrial and surgical-medical uses (dentists etc.) seem like a nice really high profit area for someone.
Not sure I would wear one of those in public unless it is a secure area. You can't ride a bike safely in Oakland. Maybe the police can figure out how to solve crimes with them?

And did we tell you the name The Game Boy? We call it Riding The Gravy TrainDuckpins - Rolling Stone has a piece on how Concert Venues are Mining their Customers Data while enjoying a Show, from Facial Rec to NFC to Tracking, and never mind the effort you went through to even navigate the Tickmasters nightmare of a Site add on fees etc etc. So the thought of enjoying a live Concert experience at Home and not being Data Mined to Death...... Priceless 🎉 Or having a Weapon pulled on you cos someone thought we were in their Seats www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/concert-rights-as-a-fan-data-sharing-surveillance-1234777970/

AAPL, the only green in a sea of red. There were a few others. HP and MSFT gained more than AAPL. And Rivian had a nice 5-6% gain. I don't own any of these directly, but they are shown on my lists. But AAPL pulling back from a 1% loss to a small gain was surprising. I guess people liked some of the news out today, from the articles people posted above. Strange feeling week, with a holiday in the middle of it. I'm still thinking AAPL is likely to set a new ATH in the next 2 months, with pre-earnings or pre-iphone announcement the most likely, and post-earnings a possibility. But things might pause a little for a bit, due to the Fed saying they might go higher. It seems crazy that it would take that much, as the rates currently match the 2008 era peak when things were much more bubbly. But each time is a little different, and while some areas and people might be feeling the changes and slowing spending/inflation, other parts and people are still hopping...as busy airports and travel are showing. But I'd guess that there is more pent up demand there, plus more lag to change, similar to how slot machine makers had so much lag.
