Mr. Bill Barker, thanks for being here.

Thanks for having me.

those, but we have to start with Apple because

Apple's first quarter which is the holiday quarter was everything you would

want it to be if you're an Apple shareholder. Profits and revenue came in higher

of a stock evaluation. It was trading at all-time highs and now is a new all-time high by a little

bit more, so it fulfilled very high expectations and the question that you know probably will be bandied around

will not spend too much time on this is you know how is the valuation

justified at this point? Yeah we I mean we, we'll get to the stock in a second, but the iPhone sales rightfully
