Who Will Win The Next Big Financial Frontier?

There's something coming that is going to be very big and all the major companies, from Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) to Google (NASDAQ:GOOG) to Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), are all vying to control and own this new frontier. This could be as big and as ubiquitous as the Internet.

Who among these three players is going to win?

On Tuesday, Apple rolled out its new iPhone, along with the new Apple Watch, and something that didn't get a lot of attention called Apple Pay. Now all of these same technologies exist with other companies in one form or another, but what I see as the next big thing for all of the above-mentioned companies is going to be mobile payments.

But what if none of these companies are successful on the upcoming financial frontier, who will take the prize? Continue reading "Who Will Win The Next Big Financial Frontier?"

Not Sure About You, But I'm Getting A Little Bit Nervous About This Market

Yesterday, Apple, Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) had its big reveal. Unfortunately for Apple, everything that they revealed was pretty much known before the event. The knowledge was instantly transferred to pressure on Apple's stock price which closed lower for the day after rallying close to an all-time high.

I think the products are all beautifully designed. The iWatch, now known officially as the Apple Watch, is not available until 2015 which means no revenue stream from this new product until next year.

I remember when Apple came out with its first iPad, I said to myself, "this is just like a big iPhone, how are they going to sell that?" Well, it turns out they sold a lot of them and it certainly helped propel their stock to new highs making Apple the most valuable company in the world.

I believe that eventually like the iPad, the Apple Watch will be accepted and people will consider it a necessary item to have for their health and well-being. Continue reading "Not Sure About You, But I'm Getting A Little Bit Nervous About This Market"

Is The Market Getting Ahead Of Itself?

After five weeks of steady gains is the market becoming a little too complacent and perhaps vulnerable to a sell-off?

It would appear as though the market is Teflon coated and has been brushing off bad news after bad news, particularly when it comes to the world's precarious political situation. In today's video, I will be examining all three indices and show you what I'm looking at right now, and I will also point out where the red line is in each of these indices.

All eyes on Apple

If you've been living anywhere on this planet then, you probably know that tomorrow is Apple's big day. Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) is set to unveil its latest and greatest creations tomorrow. In my opinion if Apple comes up with anything other than a real game changer this stock may have topped out. Continue reading "Is The Market Getting Ahead Of Itself?"

Apple, Nudes, iCloud, iPhone 6, iWatch and much more

It has been quite a week for Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) with the news that its iCloud storage system had been hacked, and stolen photographs of nude celebrities starting popping up everywhere on the web.

Apple did issue a statement saying that certain celebrity iCloud accounts were compromised, but notes, "None of the cases we have investigated has resulted from any breach in any of Apple systems including iCloud's find my phone feature. We are continuing to work with law enforcement to help identify the criminals involved."

What that indicates to me is the fact that the hackers were looking for specific names and photographs that they could use as currency. I heard today that some photographs from the paparazzi can sell upwards of $50,000 or $100,000 so they are valuable to certain entities and enterprises.
