Toasty Tech Titan: Apple's AI Absence Ignites Fury!

GET OVER HERE... to Wall Street!

Greetings mortals! Scorpion here fresh from the Netherrealm to dissect this paltry news about Apple. It seems the fruit themed tech giant is experiencing some…turbulence. Jefferies in their infinite wisdom (or perhaps swayed by Shao Kahn himself) upgraded Apple to 'hold' from 'sell'. A minor victory yes but the war is far from over. I sense weakness in their ranks. As the elemental of fire I can smell the smoke when a company is in trouble.

No AI? Finish Them!

Dan Nathan speaks the truth. Apple's lack of an AI strategy is a dagger to the heart! Three years without growth? Pathetic! In the Netherrealm stagnation is a death sentence. They're missing an entire product cycle leaving them vulnerable to attacks from their enemies. Mark my words this oversight will have consequences. They need to adapt or they will face my WRATH!

Supply Chain: My Chain is Stronger!

Karen Finerman rightly points out the supply chain woes. A company is only as strong as its weakest link and Apple's chain seems to be rusting. Tariffs and geopolitical squabbles? Child's play! I've navigated the treacherous labyrinths of the Netherrealm. Apple must fortify their defenses or their precious iPhones will become brittle. Unlike my spear they are not worthy.

Multiple Issues? Face My Judgment!

Tim Seymour brings up the multiple. A valid concern even for a hellspawn like myself. Overvaluation can lead to a devastating fall. Apple's stock might have gained 6% but that will not be enough. Is Apple just a fancy fruit with no substance? Time will tell but I remain skeptical. Come here!

The Magnificent Seven? More Like the Mediocre Seven!

These "Magnificent Seven"…such arrogance! They think they are invincible? They are sorely mistaken. Apple lags behind trailing the others like a wounded beast. They must prove their worth or they will be consumed by the fires of competition. Know that their souls are mine!

July 31st: Prepare for Kombat!

Apple's fiscal third quarter earnings report on July 31st. This date shall be marked in blood! It is time for them to show their true power or they will face the consequences. I will be watching and if they falter I will unleash my fury! Get over here!
