In an unprecedented move reflecting the worsening memory crisis, Apple has raised product prices mid-cycle across several product categories.

Macs, iPads, TV & Home hardest hit. No change to iPhone, Watch, AirPods (for now).

We haven’t seen anything like this in modern Apple.

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick told ASML tonight that the US government believes that one of its ultraviolet lithography (EUV) machines may have somehow made its way into China. Senior administration officials said they have evidence that ASML is not acting in good faith.

Charlie Munger: "The world is not driven by greed. It's driven by envy."

"The fact that everybody is 5x better off than they used to be, they take it for granted. All they think about is somebody else having more now when it's not fair that he should have it and they don't."

"I can't change the fact that a lot of people are very unhappy and feel very abused after everything has improved by about 600% because there's still somebody else who has more."
