Summary
Welcome back to another thrilling clip of Market Mondays! In this clip, we dive deep into the tech industry's latest explosive commentary as Mark Zuckerberg delivers some bold critiques about Apple. 🌐🚀
We start off with Ian Dunlap's intriguing question about former President Donald Trump suggesting Zuckerberg go on Joe Rogan's podcast to criticize Apple. What's behind this odd advice, and how might it play out in the tech landscape? Troy Millings and Rashad Bilal then bring us an exclusive clip featuring Zuckerberg's candid opinions about Apple's current state, innovation, and market strategies. According to Zuckerberg, Apple hasn't brought anything revolutionary to the table since the iPhone, launched by Steve Jobs over two decades ago. He points out that Apple's iPhone sales have plateaued and attributes their revenue growth to increased peripheral sales and the infamous 30% tax on developers.
Rashad Bilal expands on these comments, noting the ongoing debate about Apple's innovation—or lack thereof—and its implications for Apple's stock. Troy Millings highlights a key aspect: Apple's dominance in the market despite what Zuckerberg claims. He emphasizes that although Apple might be struggling with innovation, their brand has an "ironclad" reputation. Ian Dunlap backs this up with some historical context, elaborating on the long-standing "tech war" between these companies.
The clip reveals the complex dynamics between hardware and software in the tech sphere. Meta, formerly Facebook, has been making strides with its Oculus products but still faces stiff competition from Apple's entrenched ecosystem. While Apple has been successful with the iPhone and its peripherals, they haven't been pushing the envelope as much as some in the industry would like. Ian and Troy dive into the significance of innovation, the potential for new technologies like AI, and how these factors could affect the future performance of both Apple and Meta stocks.
Wrapping things up, the hosts explore what this means for Apple's future, revealing that Tim Cook might have to consider stepping down if Apple fails to innovate in the coming years. Ian even predicts that by 2034, Cook could be out of his leadership role if Apple doesn't begin to lead in innovation once again. Troy's closing thoughts bring attention to market dynamics, emphasizing that while Apple remains a market leader, their complacency could hurt their bottom line.
This clip is packed with insights, laughs, and some heavy-hitting predictions about the future of tech giants. Whether you're an avid Apple user, a pro-Meta enthusiast, or just someone interested in the ever-evolving tech landscape, this clip offers a thorough breakdown of what's currently shaking up Silicon Valley.

| 1:00.4 | Apple and Apple? Allegedly told them. Let's show this clip. Let's show the clip if we can. |
| 1:07.1 | You know, they haven't really invented anything great in a while. It's like Steve Jobs invented the iPhone and now they're just kind of sitting on it 20 years later. |
| 1:14.6 | And they actually, I think year over year, I'm not even sure they're selling more iPhones at this point. |
| 1:19.6 | I think like the sales might actually be declining. |
| 1:21.6 | And part of it is that each generation doesn't actually get that much better. |
| 1:24.6 | So people are just taking longer to upgrade than they would before. So the number of sales, I think, has generally been flat to declining. So how are they making more |
| 1:32.3 | money as a company? Well, they do it by basically like squeezing people. And like you're saying, |
| 1:36.9 | like having this 30% tax on developers by getting you to buy more peripherals and things that plug into it. |
| 1:42.7 | You know, they build stuff like AirPods, which are |
| 1:44.7 | cool, but they've just thoroughly hamstrung the ability for anyone else to build something |
| 1:51.1 | that can connect to the iPhone in the same way. So, I mean, there are a lot of other companies in the |
| 1:55.2 | world that would be able to build like a very good earbud, but it just, Apple has a specific |
| 2:00.3 | protocol that they've built into the iPhone. |
