Markets are obviously, rationally, not happy about the overspending.

But what gives me pause is that a some of the mag 7 (think Meta) could change their mind on AI build-out tomorrow, and 1-year from now have the same amazing free cash flow they always did.

Markets generally love buybacks.

The market is both happy that Apple didn’t spend all its cash on AI build-out, but also at the same time angry that Apple is “missing AI”.

Not to mention the grumblings that Apple has peaked.
