AI talking to itself now.... Yikes....

This is super misleading. The $1B in dividends is not part of his comp plan. This is what he earns as an investor. This is no different than any other rich investor earning a shit ton in dividends from a large investment.

I would love to see the break down of the incentive fees and cut of profit. My guess is his investors are more than willing to give him a split of profit if their return is higher that the benchmark by a significant enough amount.

I don't know about that AAPL IPO'ed in 1980, MSFT in 1986, AMZN 1997 all are older than 20 years and part of Top 10 in S&P.

I see downside in Aapl in the next 12 months but total collapse in 24 months, naw I don't see it.

I absolutely love my MacBook Pro not even a question. They hold up so much better than Windows Laptops. 2 of my kids switched to iPhone. It isn't going anywhere.

Wish it was at $26 after my CC expire.

That is a little aggressive. People are still buying dips in Blue Chips so that will cause it to not drop very fast.

$135 by EOY is entirely possible.

I wish BB was at $6.....

This is true, however people DCA into their retirement accounts will probably be sitting on those positions for decades so there will be ample time for normal growth in the underlying business and stock price.

The last 2.5 years were not normal in any way.

Sriracha on Raman.

This. Saying a bunch of money has been lost from an artificial high end of last year is ridiculous.

Cat is hitting the same resistance is has 2x in the last year plus. When the bear rally stalls Cat is coming back down.

Dude. You are gambling. Stop now.

0DTE are absolutely gambling.

Just start buying SPY and let it sit for decades otherwise you will just keep losing everything you put in.

Aapl's numbers were at expectations which given the market is actually good. They also raised prices for their services and have maintained their Pro models are selling well.

Aapl is #1 in the S&P and Nasdaq. Also huge holding for Berkshire. If you don't think all of this creates a constant buying pressure for Aapl you are crazy. 7 to 8% of every dollar going into 401k is going to Aapl.

Everyone still has full confidence in them. Meta was destroyed because of loss of confidence.

Sometimes if too many people think it is going a certain way it doesn't. Think of how much money was made by Puts sellers, there was an incentive to prop it up.
