Unlikely pipe dreaming

I love the way that people just banter about huge ideas like Apple buying Tesla, etc. like it was nothing.  I guess it helps to be young and pretty when saying these things on TV because people will watch based on looks alone.  I especially laughed at the notion that if Apple goes into the car business that everyone will want one because its Apple.  Talk about herding 101.

So here are some predictions about that.  No, Apple will not buy Tesla.  And if Apple ever does try to get into the car industry, it will break the company.  I mean literally put it at risk of BK.  But it is funny that trend follower Tim what's his name (AAPL CEO) thinks its a good idea to follow Tesla, which actually is run by someone with vision and soul, into the electric car biz.  Apple would get its ass handed to it.  Tesla has the gigafab and AAPL would have to buy overpriced batteries from its main competitor.  It would go down in the books as one of the worst business moves ever.

People think that AAPL is some kind of super strong player but they are looking in the rear view.  Apple products are increasingly being looked at as just too damned expensive.  When elitism was in, people would pay up for these kinds of status symbols but elitism is now in major decline and with it will go Apple's popularity.  You would never know it by listening to the two women in the video though so I am writing this at a time when Apple worship is still an official religion.  I am certainly in the minority calling for its massive downfall.  It probably won't BK unless Timmy tries to go into the electric car biz but if he does that then the company is going to crash until they get rid of that clueless, visionless loser.

I predict that Jim Cramer gets fired from TV due to plummeting ratings and massive Cramer Hate mail in the same year as Timmy gets canned from being CEO of AAPL.  LOL.
