The financial market world wide felt the impact...But as a forex trader that is sound, i was able to see it ahead...check my signature to learn more on forex trading

They're talking Apple(s) and you're talking oranges.

By the way, do you earn a living from actual forex trading or really from peddling "forex training" to gullible people?

I forsee the gradual end of tech giants like Apple and Facebook. Nothing lasts forever particularly when your product lacks any real innovation and your competitors are far more innovative than you are.
nothing lasts forever? ask Coca-Cola.

You were able to foresee that China was going to ban a few iPhone models, and promote homegrown Huawei, all as a forex trader and not as a stock analyst?

I also wonder how the worldwide financial market would feel the shock of a drop in valuation of a mere 57 billion dollars, which is a very tiny drop in the ocean compared to the worth of the global market.

Just say you're plugging your forex scam.

My dear, there is no company more innovative like Apple, Facebook and likes. They can be be beaten like microsoft on phone market, but their other products and grip on those market are timeless.

I saw people mentionimg china, china is one of the countries that doest not understand innovation and so have no tech company with a name in the world market apart from the trash they bring to Africa and third world countries.

There is no sense there, Apple is the biggest tech company in china and one of the biggest employer of labour in china, china value apple more than the US, they were the first trillion dollar company because of china, so china is their backbone and Apple is the Face of china.

Any thing that would apoil that market is blown away with the full force of china interest.

Dude relax, just say what you know!

Most of the telecom companies in the world use a product from huawei! From your network mast to modems for browsing to phone! This are all china products!

Dude google is not even relevant in China! No one cares about whatsapp or Facebook in China! They have a population and they built something homegrown for the population reason they can’t be sanctioned cause the world need them more!

Baba talk what you know.

Huawei the one banned by US the other day, please mention another company.

Any chinese company is an equivalent of NNPC in Nigeria, they have no investor apart from what the country gives it.

Viewed always with suspicion and they are masters of copycating and "cutting corners".

China censored the likes of facebook and whatsapp, let them open the market any you will see how Wechat, weibo and QQ would cripple in six months.

Apple is a bit like Tesla in that the company is virtually inseparable from its founder/CEO. Both the late Steve Jobs and Elon Musk are visionaries on whose visions and personalities the companies became popular.

Unfortunately Tim Cook, the current Apple CEO, is an operations guy and not a products or technology guy.

The only products he's introduced are the Apple Watch and the Homepod; both are me-too devices in an existing product category. Apple watch is good, but that's largely because the competition is mostly rubbish. Homepod is not better than Amazon Echo and Google Home except perhaps in sound since Siri sucks huge blue balls

Apple's innovative spirit died with its founder.

I bet Steve Jobs (God bless his soul) wouldn't allow this unacceptable overpricing.

https://www.naijatechguy.com/2019/01/apple-loses-57-billion-dollars.html

You lost the bet, Steve jobs wrote the book on over pricing things using branding.

And Nairaland pushed a post claiming bitcoin was the worst asset in 2018, APPL (Apple) stocks lost -49% in just 6 months! So if you invested 1m naira, your money is now worth barely half a million grin. Facebook shares nkọ grin? There is no quick way to riches, if you're not prepared to educate yourself and loose some money along the way in life you will remain poor sooner or later.

My dear, Huawei is trash like techno and Itel. China copycat the real deal and make them cheap.

Like Iphone like samsung, the technologies employed by those phones are expensive, because they pay different companies for those technologies and those companies keep on paying heavily on innovating something better or they lose the market with no chance of getting any better market.

It might be hard to get to the top, but to remain at the top is harder. Blackberry is not like Apple, mocrosoft or samsung, so the the difference is more within than without.

I see Google (Alphabet) making its way to number 1 on the list because almost everything they have developed is given to the world for free or almost free yet they have remained in top 5. Nature has a way of rewarding excellence and magnanimity.

Brand by sale or by Chinese money pumped into it.

The one banned by the US and allies. If your product is substandard it will not be allowed into US and that is exactly what Huawei represent.

Huawei in the same sentence with Iphone and samsung. SMH.

You can also put facebook on the same line with Wechat.

Let me put you to bed,
