We’re a Capitalist system. If Apple didn’t exist, we would want it to exist.
Here we are Conservative Capitalists, and trashing a company that has been innovative and successful.
I may not agree with the politics of it’s founders or some of it’s tactics, but just dang folks.
Are we the defenders of Ronald Reagan’s United States, or Carl Marx’s United States?
What’s the goal here? Drive Apple out of business our get it taken over by the government?
Sheesh.
I agree that they’re a massive, even historic, success story. Surely you would agree that they can take some criticism, particularly the kind directed at the activities carried out on behalf of a political agenda that violates the fiduciary responsibilities of the jokers hired to run the S.O.B.?
“What’s the goal here? Drive Apple out of business our get it taken over by the government?”
Neither. The situation with Apple here is twofold. First, they are missing the mark on sales projections for a number of obvious and a few not-so obvious reasons.
Second, the QE garbage by the feds is encouraging people into higher risk stocks. And since Apple is the “Wall Street Darling”, everyone and their uncle is trading it.
