The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

reuters.com - China bans govt officials using iphone work wsj

"China ordered officials at central government agencies not to use Apple's iPhones and other foreign-branded devices for work or bring them into the office, the Wall Street Journal reported on Wednesday, citing people familiar with the matter.

In recent weeks, staff were given the instructions by their superiors in workplace chat groups or meetings, according to the report, which added that it wasn't clear how widely the orders were being distributed."

Recently I sold my entire AAPL position in the $190s from my personal account and IRA due to valuation and personal concentration risk. Better to be lucky than good...

Now time to write a large check to the US Treasury for my capital gains.

I wonder what Warren thinks of the broader China risk??? He walked away from TSMC due to geopolitical risk between China and Taiwan.

Will be interesting. Perhaps on a pullback he buys more.
