I have to dissagree with you, I see Apple future bright.

As you have noticed before the company has large cash hoard, about 215 billion of dollars and they are generating more and more every quarter. I don’t think that “spaceship campus” is a big deal, total investement will cost the company about 5 billion of dollars and the company net income for only last quarter was 13,6 billion.

What’s up with Apple Electric Car? In my opinion the company will not compete with the automotive industry to deliver car to the private customer. In previous quarter we were witnesses of uncommon and “weird” investment done by Apple, they have invested 1 billion of us dollars in Didi Chuxing, Uber rival from China. In my opinion Apple invested there for its’ future. Uber is testing selfdriving cars right now in pittsburgh and Apple is building and will test selfdriving, electric cars for Didi in their secret bases.

Why Apple did not buy Tesla? It is nothing hard in building an electric vehicle or adapt cars with oil engines into electric one. You can read more about it in internet or watch youtube movies “convert car to electric”. Tesla in my opinion is overvalued because of MUSK cult (similar to the cult of Jobs) and that is why Apple will never buy Tesla for the current price.

Why iphone is not innovative? There are two types of innovation, radical and incremental. You can say that Apple is not using disruptive innovation but show me any company which does. There is none for today. Apple has made such a great products that people are still using right now e.g. iphone 4 or 4s. And thats why the total sales of iphone suffer, those phones are simply too good. Show me android equivalent which were made when iphone 4 or 4s came out and is still working, there is none. Androids updates make phone obsolete, lagging and switching off. That’s why people are turning to iphones despite the higher price. Apple like other mobile tech giants is using incremental innovation but I bet that there are people who have seen the fall of nokia or kodak, the companies which forgot about radical changes.

Actually Apple has a lot of patents which will be used in upcomming models. In my opinion iphone 8 will be crucial and it will come out next year in September. From the patents Apple revealed we can see that the phone will be made of solid glass, it will be fully waterproof, it will have two screens from front and back and it will recognise your face and show you the start screen and the back would be customised, you could put there your favorite photo or whatever else. There are also patents that shows that Apple is working to develop wireless charging system which can be a hit and radical change in upcomming models.

Age of Apple is over? No, even if they will sell less iphones they are constantly developing other branches of their business. Besides Iphones they are in computers (mac), tablets (ipads), wearables (iwatch), media (apple tv), software and apps (ios, app store, icloud and many more), music (itunes, beats audio headphones), energy (apple energy, solar panels), eletric vehicle (they are working on it). From rumours and patents I know that they are planning to run their own social media platform or maybe they will acquire twitter and develop their patented idea into it.

If you cant imagine what Apple can do with the cash hoard, there is one nice example which I have found at some website :

“Adding everything together, Apple has enough cash to purchase every major sports team in the world and still have $59.7 billion in cash left over to play with.

While the values of every soccer team in all of the top leagues aren’t publicly available, there’s more than enough evidence to suggest that Apple could easily purchase every single team in the NFL, NBA, MLB, MLS, NHL along with every team from La Liga, the English Premier League, and the Bundesliga.”

That is enormous hoard of cash.

There are very many ways how can use it and Apple spread its portfolio in upcoming years but I am very sure it is not the breath of this company.
