PRE-MARKET PLAY...
WHEN YOU'RE A CHOOSEY PLAYA...
You can take your pick of the litter of new products.
Yesterday, Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) showcased its new lineup and wants investors to know that everything it's doing is for the better of everyone but you gotta believe'em baby.
WHY THIS IS HAPPENING...
During Apple's special event, it released the following new products / services:
iPhone 11 - longer battery life and 3 cameras for the ultimate selfie all for less than what the iPhone X cost
10.2 inch iPad - hella big screen with keyboard support
Apple Watch Series 5 - we live baby as the face now has "always on" capabilities without draining the battery
Apple TV+ - rival to Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX) and Disney's (NYSE: DIS) Disney+ which'll be cheaper than any other streaming service not named ESPN+
Apple Arcade - just like Apple TV+ but for the gamer in you
Short story long, Apple is trying to make sure it stays in the game, literally.
THE RETURN...
Apple's stock is up over 37% so far this year.
FOR THE NEWB IN YOU...
Nothing to see here.
THE BILLION DOLLAR BIKE RIDE...
May bring all the investors to the yard.
Peloton (NASDAQ: PTON) has announced that it'll teach you how to IPO but it'll have to charge ... anywhere from $26 to $29 that is.
WHY THIS IS HAPPENING...
Just last month we shared that Peloton would be going public pretty soon, and it's gettin' more trill by the moment. Now, we know that the price of one share of stock will cost less than one month's subscription. Revenue for the company has been doin' its thang but it continues to lose more and more guap when it comes to net profit. No date has been set yet for the IPO.
THE RETURN...
Nothing to see here.
FOR THE NEWB IN YOU...
An initial public offering or "IPO" is when a company goes from private (we can't invest in it through the stock market) to public (we can invest in it through the stock market). Here's a video explaining this more and comparing it to an artist droppin' a mixtape or album.
A stock symbol or "ticker" is a unique set of letters assigned to a security. (ex. Peloton's stock symbol "PTON" while Apple's stock symbol is "AAPL".).
ALL EYEZ ON...
Video streaming.
Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) just announced that's officially in the video streaming business with the new Apple TV+. There are already other major players in the game and a few more to come.
Wanna hear it? Here it goes:
Streaming: AT&T (NYSE: T); Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX); Disney (NYSE: DIS); Comcast (NASDAQ: CMCSA); CBS (NYSE: CBS); Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN); Lionsgate (NYSE: LGF-A/LGF-B); Roku (NASDAQ: ROKU)
