"The cheaper iPhone XR is thought to be particularly struggling, as budget-conscious customers opt instead for last year’s iPhone 8, which continues to be available and is priced lower than this year’s budget model." No, no, no, no, no! I wouldn't choose the 8 over the XR because the 8 is cheaper, it's because the XR has a bunch of crap I don't want. It's larger, I don't want larger. The camera has a sharp edge, maki…
These reports always come up within 4 months after Apple having launched a new device. I'm guessing some people are making a lot of money from this FUD, by hiring PR / Research firms that will do everything to make Apple look weak.
I disagree. This never happened with iPhone 1 through 6, when a new iPhone had always been better than its predecessor in every way. After the 6, "upgrading" meant gaining some and losing some, that's also when Apple started to offer the old versions alongside the new ones on their site for far longer. To provide some anecdata: I got myself an iPhone 6 Plus right after iPhone 8 came out because I needed a headphone j…

I bet you did not want large 5" screen before.

For short and distort to work, the stock/product has to be one in major demand that can be pushed down with big fish efforts and it will bounce back almost guaranteed. Skimming funds for the hedge funds and big fish from the small/medium longs.
The SEC is starting to crack down on short and distort [2] as it is a market cheat like naked short selling [3] was which exacerbated the Great Recession. SEC cracked down on naked short selling three days after the Great Recession cliff in Sept 2008 [3]. But the levels of shell/misdirection in short and distort is very hard to track down. It is market abuse and if not checked could break the public markets now that most of investing is automated/HFT.
