Even though it's not exactly new, in my mind this is still in sharp contrast to the recurring headlines I used to read about whether Apple will survive in the next year (mac user since 1990).
- chrisseaton 6y ago> the recurring headlines I used to read about whether Apple will survive in the next year Where are these headlines? That seems like a patently ludicrous thing to claim that Apple will disappear within a year.
- cma 6y agoI think he means headlines from the 90s.
- gdubs 6y agoLook for the Wired magazine cover with the rainbow Apple logo surrounded by a crown of thorns.
- geerlingguy 6y agoI believe the caption was “PRAY”
- athenot 6y agoSorry I should have clarified: all throughout the 90s.
- leesec 6y agoFunny were seeing the same headlines now about Tesla when it is on a similar trajectory.
- mhh__ 6y agoComparing apple to Tesla is a bit rich, no? I don't know where Tesla will end up but I can't see them being the Apple of cars when the traditional manufacturers finish milking the ICE. It's not impossible but probabilistically I can't see how Tesla convert the share price into business. For example, Tesla's market cap is about 15x bigger than Ford's - but Ford's yearly revenue is about half that market cap.
- scarface74 6y agoHas Tesla shown an ability to evolve with the market for over 40 years? What is their moat?
- donarb 6y agoThe joke was that Apple would add "beleaguered" to their name since most stories about them used that word.
