   >You’re right, Apple is worth more than the FTSE 100. The reason for this is simple: Apple is a global company with a strong brand and innovative products that are in high demand all over the world. Meanwhile, the FTSE 100 is made up of mostly UK-based companies whose fortunes are largely dependent on the health of the British economy.

   Doesn’t matter, even in a deep recession people would rather go homeless and skip meals than not buy the latest iphone with a monthly subscription.

    What is the British consumer product that first comes to your mind?

    If it takes you long to come up with the answer, we know why Apple wins here.

    Apple is way way overvalued.

    I mean Shell and BP combined have a much greater revenue than Apple. Combined profit is probably smaller but probably not by much. BP made something like $8b in profit last quarter… Oil will die one day, but not yet, not yet.

    Not for long. Apple’s days are numbered. They lost their product pipeline.

    My nearest Wendy’s hasn’t had their dine in open for half a year because they’re “short staffed”

    The FTSE has like a single digit PE ratio, it’s trading like a developing market right now. It could be a good buy, weak pound should help exports.

    Yeah and Saudi Aramco is worth about the same as FTSE100 + AAPL >!(if you’re regarded and don’t do a currency conversion)!<

    Many many many reasons why the FTSE100 is in the toilet. Let’s give it a whirl. Everyone in the U.K. invests in houses and not shares after the dot com bust. Interest rates on house loans were next to nothing so it was easy to leverage. FTSE 100 companies have some pension money invested but around 2008 pensions were forced to March to liabilities so had to sell stocks for bonds, BREXIT, the U.K. Government is a mess, the island will soon be flooded by global warming, the currency has crashed from 1.60 to the dollar to 1.15 to the dollar in 6 years. The country has a persistent current account deficit, all Brits with shares invest in the US or Asia. The constantly changing tax and spend policies in the U.K. with no clear vision and instead going from one crisis to another. And finally…. Boris Johnson May be the next PM (again)! Seriously, I am not observing why U.K. shares are not below Fujis at this point

    Apple is like a cognitive experiment of what people do when they all think, well that seems like a safe stock, all at once

    Puts on Apple next

    arcticblizzardchill on October 23, 2022 at 5:59 am

    yeah, apple is a vertically integrated hardware/software provider servicing the population of the whole planet. uk is an island in the north atlantic with little to no natural resources left to plunder and a dying monarchy. what do you expect?

    more shorts on uk? who knows

    Apple are starting to make some serious mistakes.

    Silly errors in the design process aside – thinking that mobile focussed processors are a professional solution is a mistake.

    The high end creative community that supported and evangelised Apple (helping power their renaissance) are leaving the platform.

    The effect will be a slow burn but a new early adoption curve is beginning and the high level pros are often the trend setters.

    Interesting to watch how this plays out.

    that dynamic island sure is great
