Take Action Before Earnings Release: How to Play Apple and Amazon
- On Thursday, CEO Tim Cook led his final earnings call as Apple surpassed a $5 trillion market cap, cementing its position as the world's most valuable company.
- Cook's 15-year tenure concludes with a fourteen-fold valuation increase, with incoming CEO John Ternus, a 25-year Apple veteran and head of hardware, set to take over on September 1.

- Investors look to Ternus for clarity on Apple's AI strategy, particularly regarding the launch of a redesigned Siri as the industry moves at warp speed.
