Apple’s gross revenues of $170B were enough for the world’s most valuable company by market cap to climb one place in the Fortune 500 ranking, from 6th to 5th place. Apple was placed behind Walmart, Exxon, Chevron and conglomerate holding company Berkshire Hathaway (which owns large chunks of such well-known brands as Heinz, Coca-Cola, Mars and American Express). Phillips 66, General Motors, Ford Motor, General Electric and Valero Energy make up the rest of the top 10....

AAPL was up almost 3% in pre-market trading, following the company’s blockbuster earnings report for calendar Q1/fiscal Q2. The boost was short-lived, however, quickly falling to less than 1% at the time of writing. Apple reported record-breaking Q2 2021 earnings of $89.6B, up a staggering 54% year-on-year. Analysts had been expecting big things from the quarter, but nothing like the numbers Apple achieved … We yesterday reported analyst predictions for the quarter....

Alongside building its far more famous spaceship campus in Cupertino, Apple has also been busy expanding its main U.S. operations campus in Austin, Texas – with four of the planned seven buildings now open. The Austin-based American-Statesman got to do a photo tour of the facility. We first reported on Apple’s $304M plans all the way back in 2012, with the first employees moving in two years later. This is our first look inside the latest stage of the development … The campus is set amid 38 acres of wooded land off Research Boulevard in Northwest Austin, and will – when completed – house around 7,000 employees....

They may even check out their competitors to see how they measure up next to them but since they don’t take steps to understand the information they’re receiving, nothing ever changes....

Analysts are suggesting that AAPL growth will be limited in the short-term. JP Morgan says that although Apple is likely to see significant growth in sales when the iPhone 12 goes on sale, this is already priced into the current share price. Jefferies separately suggests that tech valuations have ‘hit a wall’ … Business Insider reports. In other words, there may well be good news ahead, but investors are already expecting that, so don’t expect the share price to climb much in response....

It’s just three simple words, but they speak volumes. But, beyond being all you’re going to hear for the months surrounding its December release and giving a taste of what the focus of Rian Johnson’s film is, it more subtly tells you how the Star Wars saga is currently evolving....

A feature that went unmentioned during Apple’s main WWDC keynote this morning was the addition of comprehensive support for right-to-left languages in iOS 9. While Apple didn’t mention the addition this morning, it detailed the support during its Platforms State of the Union address this evening. Apple also notes of the feature in the official iOS 9 changelog: While this feature may not seem incredibly useful for everyone, it will definitely be welcome in areas of the world where right-to-left languages are more widely used and it’s certainly nice to see Apple working to add support for features that are maybe not as headline worthy, but undoubtedly needed....
