Apple's Innovations: A Lucrative Investment OpportunityIn a groundbreaking move, Apple recently unveiled its Apple Vision Pro, a virtual/augmented reality (VR/AR) headset heralded as a "spatial computer," marking its most significant product launch in nearly a decade. This innovation underscores Apple's ongoing commitment to cutting-edge technology and potential growth avenues. Despite macroeconomic challenges in the past year, including consecutive revenue declines, Apple showcased resilience, reporting a 2% year-over-year revenue increase in Q1 2024, surpassing expectations. However, concerns persist, particularly regarding iPhone sales in China, prompting a 3% year-to-date decline in Apple's stock. Yet, Apple's financial robustness, exemplified by a 10% increase in free cash flow to approximately $107 billion, and a strategic shift towards AI, VR/AR, and digital services, signal long-term growth potential. With the AI market projected to exceed $1 trillion by 2030 and the VR market expected to grow at a CAGR of 31%, Apple's investments in these sectors position it favorably for future success. Moreover, Apple's burgeoning digital services segment, contributing about 20% of overall revenue and consistently outperforming iPhone sales, offers diversification and stability. The company's stock, perceived as a lower-risk option among "Big Tech" stocks, presents an attractive opportunity for investors, trading at a favorable value compared to rivals like Microsoft and Amazon. In essence, Apple's strategic expansion into emerging technologies and digital services makes it a compelling investment choice for those with a long-term outlook, poised to capitalize on future growth opportunities in the ever-evolving tech landscape.

Air BNB back to 114 after earnings ? Some analysts express bearish views on Airbnb, but these assessments might be misguided according to Bernstein. Key points of bearish sentiment include: Airbnb’s room nights have grown by only 8% on a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) since 2019. The company has relied on price increases (9% per year) rather than volume growth. Airbnb’s average prices are 40% higher today compared to 2019, leading some to believe it has lost its edge as a budget-friendly hotel alternative. Booking.com, a competitor offering both hotels and short-term rentals, has narrowed the room night growth gap against Airbnb.

Apple's Stock Outlook in 2024: A Tale of Bulls and BersNavigating Apple's Stock Outlook in 2024: A Tale of Bulls and Bears After a stellar performance in 2023, witnessing a remarkable 48% surge in Apple shares, the tech giant finds itself in a phase of consolidation in the early months of 2024, showing a decline of over 3% year-to-date. This shift prompts investors to ponder the opportune moment to acquire shares in the renowned iPhone maker. This article delves into the contrasting perspectives that shape the current outlook for Apple stock—examining both the bearish and bullish cases. The Bearish Case: Revenue Challenges: Apple encountered difficulties in expanding its revenue, marked by a nearly 3% decline in year-over-year revenue in fiscal 2023. iPhone and Mac sales slumped, exacerbated by unfavorable foreign exchange conditions. Valuation Concerns: The stock's valuation has raised eyebrows, with the price-to-earnings ratio surpassing 30. Despite an annual earning of $97 billion, Apple boasts a market capitalization of $2.9 trillion, demanding sustained robust earnings-per-share growth. The Bullish Case: Services Segment Expansion: Apple's services segment, comprising Apple Pay, Apple Music, AppleCare, and App Store revenue, exhibited a notable 16% year-over-year growth in the most recent fiscal quarter. Indicators suggest continued momentum, including the emergence of a significant advertising business and a consistent ability to introduce new services. Robust Balance Sheet and Capital Allocation: With a net cash and marketable securities position of $51 billion in fiscal Q4, Apple aims for net cash neutrality. The company's judicious approach to share buybacks and dividends, coupled with a strong balance sheet and an annual free cash flow of nearly $100 billion, supports continued substantial repurchases and dividends. Conclusion: While Apple faces challenges, including a recent decline in revenue and a valuation that demands sustained growth, there are compelling reasons for optimism. The flourishing services segment, prudent capital allocation, a strong balance sheet, a loyal customer base, and a history of innovation contribute to a credible argument for the tech giant's premium valuation. While caution is advised, investors lacking exposure to Apple might find the current decline an opportune moment to initiate a modest position in this iconic company. As always, thorough research and a balanced consideration of risks and opportunities are crucial in making informed investment decisions. Our preference Long positions above 169.50 with targets at 199.60 & 205 in extension.

Copper futures. Disinflation is almost there to comeCopper futures fell further to around $3.8 per pound, marking a weekly loss driven by concerns over demand from China and heightened US interest rates. China's manufacturing sector contracted for the fourth consecutive month in January, contributing to the negative sentiment. With a robust US jobs report, expectations of a Federal Reserve rate cut in March have diminished. Weaker Q1 industrial activity is expected to dampen demand, although Glencore's projected 5% production decline in 2023, along with an anticipated additional drop in 2024, could offset this. Despite these challenges, there is still hope that China will implement measures to stabilize its economy. Technical graph illustrates also, 5-years SMA is a massive long term support in this time for Copper futures COMEX:HG1! , as it breakthrough can deliver solid further losses for Copper futures prices, like in 2020 (30% off), in 2014-16 (40% off) and in 2008-09 (50% off).

EURUSD BULL TIME !! The EUR/USD pair is currently trading near 1.08501. The pair has been experiencing some bearish momentum, with the near-term technical outlook pointing to a build-up of bearish momentum1. However, the USD has been struggling to find demand, which has helped the pair hold its ground1. If you’re considering a bullish position on EUR/USD, it’s important to monitor key levels of support and resistance. The Fibonacci 50% retracement level of the October-December uptrend aligns as critical support1. If EUR/USD falls below that level and starts using it as resistance, 1.0740 (static level) could be seen as interim support before 1.0700 (psychological level, Fibonacci 61.8% retracement)1. On the upside, 1.0830 (former support, static level) aligns as immediate resistance before 1.0865 (Fibonacci 38.2% retracement) and 1.0900 (psychological level, static level) 28 DAYS TP 1.1150 After FOMC
