- "Apple finally has a solution for locating your lost AirPods remotely. The company has added Find My AirPods, a tracker function for the $159 bluetooth headphones, to the Find My iPhone app."
- "The finder function comes bundled with the iOS 10.3 beta that began rolling out on Tuesday, and it'll also be available on the desktop version of Find My iPhone. If your AirPods are set up with an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch that already has Find My iPhone enabled, the new feature will automatically be available. A third party had beaten Apple to releasing an AirPods tracker, but the company booted it from the App Store on Jan. 9."
- "AirPods, which were announced alongside the iPhone 7 and shipped in December after an uncharacteristic delay, hit the market without a way to locate them if they disappeared. The small, cordless headphones connect to phones via Bluetooth, and a single replacement AirPod costs $69, so customers have expressed concerns over losing them since their announcement."
- "Because the headphones aren't connected to the internet, the tracker can only locate them in real-time if they are in range of one of your bluetooth-enabled devices that's also logged into your iCloud account. If they're not nearby, the app will display where they were last paired with one of your iOS devices. Similarly, if your AirPods are dead or inside the charging case, the app will display where they were last connected to one of your devices."

Apple shares - daily bullish breakout (based on the article)
Daily shares price broke 145.46 and 147.19 resistance levels together with ascending triangle pattern to above for the bullish breakout to be continuing.
- "KGI Securities speculated in a report yesterday that Apple would be unveiling a Siri-based smart home product in order to take on Amazon's Echo. The analyst at KGI, Ming-Chi Kuo, stated that there is a greater than 50% chance that Apple will debut the device at their World Wide Developer Conference (WWDC) scheduled for June 5-9."
- "So, maybe Apple is late to the game. However, if they are indeed going to unveil an Echo-like device next month at WWDC, get ready for another hit product from Apple and from an investment point of view, get ready for Street estimates to move higher as well. As the title suggests, from product and investment points of view, better late than never indeed."

Apple shares are on bullish ranging within 155/152 s/r level to be above Ichimoku cloud: the price is testing 155 resistance to above for the bullish trend to be resumed.
- "Are we ready to concede the fact that the Nasdaq will hit 10,000 in the very near future? Probably within the next couple years."
- "Amazon just hit $1000/share. Google $975. Apple is likely to become the first company ever to have a total valuation of $1trillion dollars. If you don’t think it’s worth it, remember that stock ownership means you own a small piece of the company. And the company owns $250billion of cash. One quarter of the $1trillion valuation is in cold, hard cash. Only three quarters of the value is in floating stock."
looks like Friday doesn't do any good for Apple stock.
