January 29, 2018 | AAPL, Daily JAM, MCD, Notes You Need, PYPL, SQM | 3 comments

In my daily trawling through the market I come upon lots of tidbits of knowledge that I think are important to investors but that don’t justify a full post. I’ve decided to start compiling these notes here each day in a kind of running mini blog that I’m calling Notes You Need. A typical entry would resemble this from today: “10:20 a.m.: Apple (AAPL) shares down 2% this morning on news reports out of Japan that the company will lower iPhone X production volume by 50% in the first quarter of calendar 2018. The stories see that Apple has notified suppliers that it will cut production for January-March quarter to 20 million units for the iPhone X instead of the 40 million units projected at the phone’s November release. Apple reports earnings after the market close on Wednesday, February 1.”
