$Apple(AAPL)$ If the iPhone 17

If the iPhone 17 jumps 30% in price, that’s a dealbreaker for me. At some point, brand loyalty turns into blind spending. Unless it folds, floats, or makes coffee, there’s no way that price hike is justified. Plenty of Android flagships offer 90% of the experience for 60% of the cost. Apple’s great, but I’m not funding their margins.

Apple Jumps 6%! Time to Go Long With Exemption?

Just as the U.S. government announced a tariff exemption for smartphones, computers, and other electronic products—interpreted by the public as a breather for the semiconductor industry—a White House official revealed that the U.S. is now drafting special tariff measures. President Trump stated on Saturday that more information will be released on April 14. Apple shares rose 6% in pre-market trading. Is Apple’s crisis over, or is a second dip still ahead?
