Apple $Apple(AAPL)$ has unveiled its first 2nm Mac chip, the M6, built on a process so small that a human hair is roughly 50,000× wider and even a strand of DNA is about 2.5nm thick. Apple also introduced the M5 Ultra, describing it as its most powerful chip ever, aimed at demanding workloads like 3D rendering and frontier AI models.
Apple keeps pushing forward where technology meets everyday life. Q3 showed some resilience, with Services growing nicely and AI efforts starting to look more interesting. They're putting a lot into future tech that could change how we work, connect, and create. Still feels like there's more to come. $Apple(AAPL)$
$Microsoft(MSFT)$ The stock keeps drifting back to this level on low volume again. This is the only company in the mag 7 that's still making real money hand over fist. What do you call a winding road... Amen.
$Microsoft(MSFT)$ Looks like the panic sellers who bought at higher levels need to finish cutting their losses or breaking even first. Once that pressure clears out, there might be a better chance to start moving back up.
$Apple(AAPL)$ One firm put out a $380 target based on iPhone 18 price increases, another is at $260, and the stock drops $5.00 on that? Apple is going to source memory chips from China, and Jefferies has a sizable short position it needs to work out of. Charlatans. Phones are selling quite well at the moment, and in China too.
$Apple(AAPL)$ It spiked at the close and then moved another $2 after hours, just like I thought. Looks like a lot of people are grabbing shares for the dividend with only a couple of days left.
