$Apple(AAPL)$ It is simply one of the best economic indicators for the markets. People are about to buy iPhone duos and MacBook Pro Touches on Klarna lease programs. Who wouldn't invest at these stock prices?
$300 looks like it could act as short-term resistance for GOOGL. $Berkshire Hathaway(BRK.B)$ is the kind of name you buy with a multi-year or even multi-decade horizon, so that fits fine. $Occidental(OXY)$ has recovered quite a bit. Not forgetting the 1000% he has made over his career, and he still holds $Apple(AAPL)$ and KO. I think Google will be a fine company to acquire and invest into, at $250 or $350 if your holding period goes beyond Thanksgiving.
Back in 2018, I remember seeing people here throw out $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ to $200 constantly, and they usually got made fun of for it. Some of it may have been sarcasm at the time, but here we are now, with $1000 actually becoming part of the conversation.
$Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ The issue with the stock market is that most people just follow the news and social media. Real traders tend to focus on the numbers and volume.
$Apple(AAPL)$ By the time the Apple skeptics realize compute is going to shift more toward edge devices, it will be too late for them. There is so much power in one device now, and that is why I am going with the Duo this time around. Power and screen real estate.
$Apple(AAPL)$ Apple has a cult following and people will pay any amount for an iPhone. It's not hard to imagine $5,000 iPhones eventually. Kind of like the Disney cult. Cook could charge $10,000, and the Apple crowd would still buy it all up.
