Touching on the topic of shopping malls and how many of them will fail over the next 5 years, how will that affect successful mall based operators like AAPL and SBUX?
Surely the perverse weakness in just about every mall based merchant has to start worrying people about the virility of the mall itself. Along those lines, if the fucking mall closes down, what the hell will Apple do?
I guess they’re just migrate down the block to a strip mall scene; but it wouldn’t be the same experience.
Shares of AAPL are getting hammered today, based on the fact that the law of large numbers have finally seized the social butterfly, Tim Cook, by the short hairs.
The people no longer care about your sexual orientation, Tim. The people want the teevee, asshole. So quit thinking about building a car, and get to building America the teevee it deserves.
The whole idea of Apple at fresh 52 week lows, off by 28% since last year, is taxing for investor’s psyche.
With $230 billion in cash reserves, Apple desperately needs to shake things up a bit. Simply buying back stock for the sake of appeasing hedge fund managers is asinine and infantile. They need to grow, make smart acquisitions, innovate, stop being so gay, etc.

Such a sage to stay out of stocks….this year is asinine. What are rules? All based on opinions – Market wants FB to be largest company in the world. Of course. Take down Apple. People could turn on Facebook faster than dusk turns into dark. All this just exemplifies to everyone is market has no valuation guidelines…and is not honest.
I am not a sage. My limits were tested and I decided that I could no longer play the game. The market changed in 2014 and I feared 2016 would be another chop fest year, something I was uninterested in partaking in.
Well you are a SAGE to me…I love your writing…it is brilliant.
Gilead should head the advice found in your final paragraph; very applicable to them as well.
Pikers
like real estate and there are only a few times
you can do well.Wait for the big boys to panic –
and they do-and be ready with money.Same goes
for stocks.They are not dumping yet but if they keep
messing up they will have to and I will be ready.
A one-time megadividend like the one Microsoft did about twenty years ago would be a nice touch. Give some succor to the suffering investors.
