I'm glued to my screens for Thursday's double-header—Apple and Amazon dropping earnings after the close. These are the two names I've been waiting on all season. Apple's riding an all-time high, but Amazon's been the MAG7 laggard, and that asymmetry is where I smell opportunity. Both have the catalysts to surprise, and I'm positioned to ride the breakout.

Apple's iPhone cycle is the wildcard everyone's debating, but I'm not sweating unit sales alone. Services are the silent killer—App Store, Apple Music, Apple Pay—all sticky, high-margin, and growing double-digits. China exposure? Overblown noise. Supply chain's stabilized, and if iPhone 17 demand beats the whisper, $300 is in play fast. I've been adding on dips below $220; now I'm letting it run.

Amazon's the one I'm pounding the table on. AWS growth reaccelerating? Check. Advertising scaling like a rocket? Check. E-commerce margins expanding as logistics tighten? Triple check. The stock's been dead money while peers mooned, but this setup screams catch-up trade. If AWS prints 20%+ growth and guidance tops $200B run-rate, the multiple rerates overnight.

Laggards become leaders—that's the rotation I'm betting on. Apple's already in motion, but Amazon's the coiled spring. I trimmed some Apple at $227 to free up dry powder, but I'm holding the core. Amazon? I'm long and not blinking. A beat on cloud and ads sends this to $200 faster than the bears can cover.

Conviction play: Amazon catches fire, Apple grinds to $300, and the MAG7 gap closes. I'm not trading earnings for noise—I'm investing in execution. Thursday's the spark. Let's light it up. 🚀

AWS Boom Sends Amazon Flying! Time to Chase AMZN or AAPL?
Amazon jumped more than 13% after Q3 exceeded expectations, along with strong growth in its cloud-computing unit. AWS revenue accelerated 20.2% to $33 billion, which CEO Andy Jassy said was a pace it hadn’t seen since 2022. Apple Chief Executive Tim Cook on Thursday gave a forecast for holiday quarter iPhone sales and overall revenue that beat Wall Street expectations, powered by orders for iPhone 17 models that the company is racing to fulfill amid continuing supply constraints. Is there chance to chase Amazon and Apple?
