(00:00.398)
Tim Cook went in and he kissed the ring and then some. We’re all debating right now how expensive that little trinket that the trophy or whatever he gave to Donald Trump. that’s where everybody’s trying to guess on that at this point in time. it’s there’s gold in it as you have the White House is basically, you know, it could have been designed by gold member at this point in time. Anyway, anyway, Tim Cook.
He had to put his tail between his legs. And again, this is why I could never, I had a real difficult time being a publicly traded company. Reason being is that you have a fiduciary duty to your shareholders to do whatever means necessary to improve the company. have, there’s three shareholders in my company. It’s my brothers and I.
And we’re always going to do right by one another. But again, we have a fiduciary duty to our clients. We put that above everybody else. Tim Cook had to put his tail between his legs and go to the White House and put on this little show so we could get Trump office back. And Apple is not going to be hit with all sorts of tariffs. And he had to make all sorts of promises and he had to do it in front of the camera.
Get a podcast on this and it’s funny. You don’t understand they’re gonna spend $600 billion winning. And you see all the morons, all the, this is what I voted for, all these influencer morons. I’m sorry. Dumb as a box of rocks comes to mind. I don’t mean to be mean, but you know, it’s hard not to. I mean, if you don’t know what the hell you’re talking about, would you just shut up?
I know, I know that’s how you make your living, know, bribing people up online and towing the company line. But let’s be honest here. Okay. Over the past four years, past four years, Apple’s total, in total four year period of time, capital expenditures investments was $42.2 billion.
(02:18.51)
$42.2 billion over the past four years. And now you think that they’re gonna spend $600 billion on what?
On what do you understand? is government could go through $600 billion like it’s Companies, they can’t do that, nor will they do that because again, he has a fiduciary duty to his shareholders. I pulled this up. is an actual press release from Apple back in 2018.
Hmm, I wonder if they were getting pressure back then to Apple today announced a new set of investments to build on its commitment to support the American economy and its workforce concentrated in three areas where Apple has had the greatest impact on job creation direct employment by Apple spending an investment with Apple’s domestic suppliers and manufacturers. They said that they were going to spend back then $350 billion back in 2018.
They didn’t. It sounded good at the time. Again, you you got to make the president look good. But but they keep I’m sorry, people, I gotta be honest with you. know, I want the president to do well also. But enough with this. OK, anybody would half a brain can see right through all of this BS. Then you got Scott Besson. Scott Besson comes out and he says Micron is going to put in 200 billion, invest 200.
billion dollars.
(04:01.006)
going to invest 200 billion. Do you understand that you and I are building right now, we’re the ones making the investment in Micron, we are building Micron’s chip plant outside of Syracuse, New York right now. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The only reason why it’s there is because Chuck Schumer was Senate Majority Leader there under Biden. Anyway, they’re going to spend $200 billion.
Where are they gonna come up with that money? The entire market capitalization, okay, if you’re not familiar what that is, market cap is every single share of Micron all together, okay, multiply it by its stock price, okay? You wanted to buy every share and again, we couldn’t do it that way because the stock would go through. The total market cap’s $121 billion and they’re gonna spend 200 billion? You know what its free cash flow was?
last year Micron, $386 million.
Come on, man. I mean, this is crazy. Where are you gonna get that money from for crying out loud? Again, you don’t have to do this. I don’t know, I don’t understand. I know you’re gonna get your influencers all excited and you’re out there, I don’t know, you’re speaking to, I don’t know, trying to draw attention to whatever. It doesn’t make any sense. Okay, you don’t have to, okay?
Go back to what you were doing and what you were doing well. need some great ideas as of late. Okay, I love the idea with the census and not allowing illegals to be counted. It’s gonna change the dynamic. That’s a smart move, that’s great. But this other stuff, it’s not working, man. Watchdogonwallstreet.com.
