Don Nesbitt talks about how Apple (AAPL) faces a critical earnings test as investors weigh the growth of its high-margin services segment against the hardware dominance of the iPhone. While Western Digital (WDC) and other suppliers benefit from data center demand, Apple must navigate these input costs alongside a complex regulatory environment. The discussion also focuses on the company's competitive standing against Huawei in China and the potential impact of tariffs on the bottom line. Don examines how the relationship between CEO Tim Cook and the Trump administration might mitigate trade headwinds in the U.S. market.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Apple (AAPL) posted yet another earnings beat while muscling significant numbers for iPhone sales and revenue from China. However, its services segment came in-line.

Apple (AAPL) "executed well enough," says David Nicholson, "and that's enough." The company posted record quarterly revenue yet again but its services revenue came in-line. However, David sees a "tectonic shift" taking place with its partnership in Alphabet's (GOOGL) Google Gemini that he suggests investors not ignore. He sees Gemini insulating margins from Nvidia (NVDA). ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Apple's (AAPL) "bar is high because Tim Cook put it up there" for earnings, says Marley Kayden. She explains how Apple is setting the stage for its report after the close on Thursday for a widely-expected beat. While the company's iPhone ecosystem remains a hot topic, Marley adds that the AI focus stays strong with Apple expected to integrate Alphabet's (GOOGL) Google Gemini next month.

Daniel Rubino with Windows Central offers his perspective on the first half of Mag 7 companies reporting earnings this week. For Microsoft (MSFT), he believes the enterprise tech firm remains in a "great position" due to its Azure cloud platform and multi-modal AI approach. As for Apple (AAPL), Daniel sees why the company took a step back from AI but remains on the sidelines when it comes to determining if it will pay off. He later explains why Meta Platforms (META) isn't in as strong of a positioning as the most bullish analysts believe. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Chris Versace is homing in on guidance from Mag 7 earnings reports. Microsoft (MSFT) needs to show monetization and a higher backlog. Meta Platforms (META) needs to update investors on their advertising strategies and give more info on their subscription plans. Apple (AAPL) is generally expected to have a good quarter, but Chris is a little concerned about their outlook. He hopes to see an AI-enabled Siri in the near future. Otherwise, he likes Eaton (ETN) and is closely watching CoreWeave (CRWV). ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

President Trump exhibiting his "Art of the Deal" tactics at Davos shouldn't worry investors, says Chris Versace. He explains how you can brace for more volatility expected ahead.

AAPL President Kyle Reynolds sheds light on the landman compensation crisis that's threatening the industry's future. While attorney salaries jumped 76% since 2000, field landmen still earn the same $400-500 day rates they have for the past 25 years. That puts them below the living wage in most markets. Reynolds shares AAPL's strategic plan to address the talent shortage before 40-50% of field landmen retire, plus insights on recruiting across oil, gas, and renewables.What You'll LearnWhy field landman day rates haven't increased since 2000, despite doubled costsThe real numbers behind the landman talent shortage and aging workforceHow AAPL is tackling compensation conversations without price-fixingWhy field experience matters more than ever for career advancementSmart strategies for justifying higher contractor rates to operatorsTime Stamps00:42 - Episode & Guest Intro00:54 - Kyle's Journey as AAPL President02:15 - The Evolving Role of Landmen02:45 - Impact of Media and Education on Landmen04:31 - Recruitment and Training Challenges07:44 - Field vs. In-House Landmen11:37 - The Importance of Mentorship17:51 - Economic Realities and Compensation26:46 - The Future of Landmen and Technology35:11 - Understanding Brokerage Fees and Costs36:10 - The Importance of Skilled Labor in Drilling Projects37:54 - The Value of Investing in Quality Landmen38:49 - Challenges and Strategies in Land Management47:18 - The Debate on Licensing for Landmen51:35 - Innovative Approaches to Land ManagementSnippets from the Episode"Field landman day rates have been pretty stagnant, $400 to $500 a day in 2000, and that's still what they're making today. In 2000, a field landman made more than the average attorney. Fast forward 25 years, attorneys are up 50-something percent versus five." - Kyle Reynolds"If you just look at inflation, $400 in 2000 is $770 today. You took what was a really high-paying job and now you're scraping." - Kyle Reynolds"Texas is the only place that our field landmen are making money above the living wage standard. You could make more money working at Buc-ee's than doing this work on an hourly basis." - Kyle Reynolds"The forward face of your company is not your VP of land, it's the landman who actually took the lease and said, 'We're going to take care of you, Mr. Jones.'" - Kyle Reynolds"About 40-50% of our members are nearing retirement age.

Dan Ives believes we're still in stage three of ten when it comes to the AI revolution. He talks about why Apple (AAPL) will "continue to bet on Google" to power its AI as Alphabet (GOOGL) hits all-time highs and a $4 trillion market cap. As for his other top names, he considers Nvidia (NVDA) as the one chipmaker fueling the AI trade. However, he dubs his "AI 30" as other critical players through the Dan Ives AI Revolutions ETF (IVES). As for Tesla (TSLA), Dan explains why the company's slow rollout of robotaxi will be beneficial long-term. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Alphabet (GOOGL) still has room to run, says Ali Mogharabi. When it comes to its new partnership with Apple (AAPL), Ali expects Alphabet will hold a treasure chest of data which its Gemini AI models can largely benefit from. Combined with Google's search and cloud features, Ali says there's "no doubt" Alphabet will continue adding muscle to its AI dominance. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

The holiday season added muscle to Apple's (AAPL) iPhone 17 sales. LikeFolio's data shows strong demand in the tail-end of 2025, something Megan Brantley believes offers a good set-up for 2026. She makes the case that any positive headlines on AI development can send Apple's consumer sentiment soaring. However, Megan says there's a big question mark for the back half of the year when it comes to forward innovation. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Fourth quarter deliveries for Tesla (TSLA) fell under Wall Street's estimates, yet Wall Street doesn't seem to care. Diane King Hall goes over the numbers and explains why investors have their eyes on Tesla's autonomous driving and robotics aspirations instead. On other Mag 7 movers, she turns to Raymond James resuming coverage on Apple (AAPL) with a market perform rating. Diane eyes international movers in ASML Holding (ASML) hitting a 52-week high thanks to Aletheia's double upgrade. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

The lesson Austin Lyons says he will take away from 2025 is the deep ties AI has to the CapEx story. Companies like Nvidia (NVDA) and TSMC (TSM) are juggernauts he expects to benefit as AI spending accelerates in 2026. When it comes to growing TPU competition from Alphabet (GOOGL), he doesn't see it serving as a perfect substitute to Nvidia's GPUs. Austin later taps Apple's (AAPL) AI story, or lack thereof, and how it serves as a company bull case. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

As we enter the final trading week of 2025, Mark Longo breaks down a high-stakes, holiday-shortened Monday session. While the broader markets saw thin liquidity and red screens, several heavy hitters lit up the tape with unusual activity—including a rare top-tier appearance from British American Tobacco. Inside This Episode: The Holiday Volume Slump: Why it only took 265,000 contracts to break into the Top 10 today—the lightest volume since the "dog days of summer." Tesla's Bearish Shift? Tesla takes the #1 spot, but for once, it's the $465 puts dominating the tape as the stock slides over 3%. The "Monster" Monthly Spread: A massive $350/$300 put spread in MicroStrategy (MSTR) captured the attention of volatility hunters. The BTI Dividend Play: Why a sleepy tobacco name saw nearly 200x its average daily volume and what the Jan $50 in-the-money calls tell us about the ex-dividend date.

Apple (AAPL) may be 5% off its all-time high, but Ben Watson with Charles Schwab says there's still strength in Apple's stock chart. He points out an upward channel that has held through the back half of 2025. Ben suggests recent slowdown can offer a spring to the top of that channel. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about
In this episode of SoundPractice, Matthew Mazurek, MD, assistant professor of anesthesiology at Yale School of Medicine discusses his new book, Sexual Misconduct, Harassment, and Discrimination in Healthcare by the AAPL. Mazurek reveals sexual misconduct in healthcare occurs on multiple levels: - Confidential surveys show the problem remains significantly underreported. - Social media has created new avenues for inappropriate behavior, particularly among younger staff members. - Healthcare workers face harassment from patients more frequently than in other STEM fields due to physical touching and power dynamics. For healthcare leaders conducting investigations, Mazurek recommends: - Use two-person interview teams to avoid "he said, she said" situations while preventing respondents from feeling ganged up on. - Strip away who is telling the story and focus objectively on what happened. - Involve risk management early in high-stakes cases. - Maintain consistency in questioning and look for corroboration. Reality check: Lack of standardization across 50 state medical boards contributes to delays in addressing misconduct, with some physicians maintaining long histories of violations before consequences. Mazurek emphasizes prevention over investigation expertise: - Leadership must model appropriate behavior — executives engaging in misconduct set a tone of tolerance. - Training programs should use case studies in small groups to help staff feel the emotional impact, not just understand it intellectually. - Address microaggressions through comprehensive education on bias and stereotypes. - Create policies expressly covering social media interactions with colleagues as part of the work environment. The bottom line: Healthcare organizations must balance their duty to provide safe environments for staff with their obligation to care for patients, even when patient behavior crosses lines.

Eddie Ghabour anticipates a year-end Santa Claus rally driven by money managers attempting to catch up with indices. He expects a rotation out of overbought tech stocks to continue in the first quarter of next year, preferring economically sensitive sectors like financials, industrials, and small caps. Ghabour identifies Apple (AAPL) as a defensive tech play due to lowered expectations and strong iPhone sales in China. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

James Boyd analyzes Apple (AAPL) charts, noting a 5% pullback from its high. He dissects moving averages, candle colors, and horizontal support levels. James also examines a two-year chart, emphasizing the significance of the 250 threshold and the 161% extension. He says that it's normal to take profits after reaching goals. He suggests that if the stock stays at its current level, it could reach its highest point and make more money. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Dale Smothers believes the markets are correcting to the upside after "overreactions" against the A.I. CapEx story and FOMC uncertainties. That said, he believes markets won't see as stellar of gains in 2026 compared to 2025. However, Dale pounds the table on the A.I. trade as long as use cases develop. He sees Amazon (AMZN) and Apple (AAPL) rallying strong in the coming year after serving as Mag 7 laggards in 2025. He adds that Nvidia (NVDA) will continue to dominate due to its GPU business. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Join Mark Longo for the Hot Options Report as he breaks down the final full trading week of the year. This episode tracks the flow in the single-name equity options market, dominated by a massive Tesla rally and surprising downside action in several key tech stocks. Learn which strikes were hottest and what the implied sentiment suggests for year-end trading. Today's Top Options Trading Stories Tesla (TSLA) Roars Back: A huge rally on Monday drives Tesla to the number one spot in volume, fueled by a massive amount of activity in the TSLA 500 Calls expiring this week. The question remains: can the stock hit that key par strike by Friday? The Tech Titan Tumble: Major names like Apple (AAPL), Broadcom (AVGO), Oracle (ORCL), and the "Widowmaker" Netflix (NFLX) all finished the day in the red, seeing significant volume as they slipped from recent highs. Nvidia (NVDA) Bucks the Trend: Despite overall market weakness in large-cap tech, Nvidia managed a gain, placing second in volume with heavy interest in the NVDA 180 Calls. Hot Trade Insights SoFi (SOFI): Continued weakness drives interest in the 28 Calls, possibly indicating traders using an attractive one-week Covered Call strategy. MicroStrategy (MSTR): The massive sell-off led to heavy trading in the 165 Puts for over $5.00, suggesting traders are either buying protection or betting on continued downside. Covered Calls: A significant theme emerges with high volume in out-of-the-money calls for weekly expiration across multiple names (AAPL, NFLX, AMZN, etc.), suggesting traders are willing to sell premium or expect a limited rally this week.

A.I. and iPhone sales will be Apple's (AAPL) focus for 2026, according to today's Watch List panel.

Sales in China is another focus Angelo believes needs more attention. Morningstar's William Kerwin agrees, making the case that Apple will need its bottom line to make advancements in tech. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

It's time to grade our 2025 predictions (spoiler: we were mostly wrong) and make some reckless new calls for 2026. We debate whether Oracle or Alphabet will be the next mega-cap winner, if Tesla's full self-driving ambitions will crash the stock, and why Strategy might be the single most dangerous stock to own next year. Plus, we ask the big question: Will the market finally crash in 2026, or is the AI bubble just getting started?00:16 Reckless Predictions and Accountability00:34 Catching Up After the Holidays01:42 Reviewing Last Year's Predictions06:03 Stock Picks for 202511:10 Stocks to Avoid in 202520:46 Reflecting on Housing Market Predictions24:30 S&P 500 Prediction Review25:16 New Predictions for 202626:35 Oracle's Market Potential27:29 Alphabet's AI Advantage28:43 ASML and GE Aerospace Predictions31:55 Kinsale Capital and Stock Picks34:29 Stocks to Avoid in 202640:31 Reckless Predictions for 2026Companies mentioned: AAPL, ASML, BRK.B, DFH, ENPH, GE, GOOGL, GRBK, INTC, KNSL, LLY, LEN, MELI, META, MSFT, MSTR, MTH, NVDA, ORCL, PHM, PLTR, TREX, TSLA, WMT*****************************************Join our PatreonSubscribe to our portfolio on Savvy Trader *****************************************Email: investingunscripted@gmail.comTwitter: @InvestingPodCheck out our YouTube channel for more content: ******************************************To get 15% off any paid plan at fiscal.ai, visit https://fiscal.ai/unscripted******************************************Listen to the Chit Chat Stocks Podcast for discussions on stocks, financial markets, super investors, and more.
