COMMENT

Tom Cook and Jensen Huang have to be diplomats now to deal with Trump and his tariffs, or they will have a China problem. Apple is trying to stay out of the ire of Trump. The street has been negative on Apple, asking what they're doing in AI, but the street hasn't changed its price targets.

BUY

He bought into weakness (not strength). He bought it as an AI play. TSM is their biggest customer. They've had a problem with China for a while, though boasts over a 50% profit margin. They're turning a corner, because the AI conversation has shifted from laptops and PCs to going mobile. So, they will need to buy new equipment, and this benefits ASML.

BUY

Has been a momentum stock the past 5 years while shifting from hardware to software with subscriptions boosting revenues. That's when this company shifted.

SELL

He looked at big tech and the big bands which reported solid earnings, and yet the market sold them off. He expected the same from IRM, and that's what's happened. He owned this and collected only the 3% dividend. 

SELL

Sold it because it's been dead money for the year he's owned it. Collected only a 3% dividend for holding it.

BUY

Will rise when the Fed cuts interest rates.
