Ces, 2022

Side note . Apple hit $3T today in terms of the market cap.

PS. I changed the "Ces" to "CES" but, for some reason, the site software doesn't allow for that to be fixed permanently.
 
Company's on fire...

P.S. People are still trampling over each other to find a PS5, even after the holidays.
 
Electric cars is probably where Apple will go also. That's a highly lucrative market and they don't want to be upstaged by the Chinese. Or South Africans.
 
DLD, Would it kill you to include a 3-word sneak preview of what you're linking to so I don't always have to click through? Like "2lb portable projector"

I hope it wouldn't kill me. I don't need extra - or existing - causes one bit. In fact, it'd be nice not to have any at all.

OK, below is a nice summary of top developments at the CES. An interesting comment from the writer is that Intel and AMD do not mention chip shortage with their new processors.

Does that mean you think the end of the chip shortage is near? Or they are well-supplied? All the click bait I see suggests the shortage has no end in sight

I read it simply as they’re not talking about it on purpose. Just like you never point out your short-comings, you only talk about the strong points, the selling points.

Anyone?

Intel (own facilities) and AMD (subcontracted out to TSMC) have no production problems. But those are not ARM based chips, which are in demand for cars and servers.

PS. From a pure economics perspective, "shortage" - absent price controls - is an idiotic terminology. The market has clearing prices, whether it has ten billion chips shipped or twenty.


PPS. The Soviet Union had shortages - called deficits by the natives - because the state run economy controlled the bulk of the production and the bulk of the distribution. Where this wasn't the case, as was with smuggled brand name blue jeans, cross training shoes or rock-n-roll records, the highest bidder got the goods.
