Apple Preparing Monthly iPad, Mac Payment Plans for Apple Card
(Bloomberg) -- Apple Inc. is preparing to allow customers to buy many of its products, including iPads, Macs and AirPods, over monthly installments via its Apple Card credit card.The Cupertino, California-based technology giant is planning to roll out the service in the coming weeks, according to people familiar with the plan. The offering will let customers buy a product through Apple and split up the cost over several months with interest-free payments.The company will offer a 12-month interest-free payment plan for iPads, Macs, the Apple Pencil and iPad keyboards, as well as the Mac XDR Display monitor, and six months with no interest for the AirPods, Apple TV, and HomePod, the people said.An Apple spokeswoman declined to comment.The payments will be managed through the Apple Card section in the Wallet app on the iPhone and charges will be added to a customer’s monthly Apple Card bill. Apple started a similar program for the iPhone last year, offering 24 months no interest.The program is similar to those by carriers selling phones and other products, offering consumers another avenue to purchase these items with monthly payments.The service is also designed to spur enrollment for the Apple Card, a joint effort with Goldman Sachs Group Inc., and boost sales of Apple products by letting users split up the cost over time. It will be compatible with Apple’s education discounts, the people said.Apple Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook said on the company’s second-quarter earnings call in April that the company would launch an installment payment service for products beyond the iPhone, but he didn’t specify timing or features.For more articles like this, please visit us at bloomberg.comSubscribe now to stay ahead with the most trusted business news source.©2020 Bloomberg L.P.

Apple TV+ Could Still Reach 100 Million Subscribers
Apple's (NASDAQ: AAPL) foray into subscription video has been relatively quiet since it launched Apple TV+ in November. Despite offering a free year of service to anyone that buys a new Apple device and pricing the service at just $4.99 per month for everyone else, the tech titan hasn't grabbed the attention of most consumers. Various media reports put Apple TV+ viewers somewhere between 10 million and 33 million.

Las ultimas noticias sobre cannabis, cañamo, CBD, psicodelicos, y otras tematicas verdes, ahora en Benzinga en Español, via El Planteo.* Empresa Uruguaya Lanza Blockchain Para Cannabis Medicinal Por Javier Hasse.Uruguay Can, una compañia de cannabis que opera en Uruguay, lanzo esta semana una nueva plataforma basada en aeternity, un blockchain descentralizado y escalable.La nueva plataforma permite una trazabilidad completa en el cultivo de cannabis medicinal, en lo que la compañia llama de "germinacion a empaque".Esta solucion tecnologica busca elevar los estandares de seguridad, generando garantias con respecto a la calidad del producto final, tanto para el mercado local como para las exportaciones.* Continuar leyendo...* Cannabis en Argentina: Legalizar la Marihuana Podria Salvar la Economia Por Juan Ruocco.En la pelicula Matrix, Morfeo le da una pastilla roja a Neo, el protagonista, que le permite ver la realidad y sacarlo de la simulacion en la que esta sumergido, pero que el cree que es el mundo real.

Para Platon este era el modo de abandonar el mundo de las apariencias y conocer la verdad absoluta que daba forma al universo. En cambio, nosotros seres posmodernos podemos darnos el lujo de quitarle el peso metafisico a esa expresion y nos alcanza con decir que ambos procedimientos (la pastilla roja y la caverna platonica) cumplen el mismo rol funcional. Es, simplemente, cambiar lo que se piensa acerca de algo.El filosofo neo reaccionario Curtis Yarvin acuño el termino redpill para describir este dispositivo ideologico o experimento mental. De una manera analoga, podemos usar el termino green pill para destinar el mismo proceso hacia la idea que nos compete y a la vez hacer un guiño simpatico al autor. Que tal si por un momento suspendemos nuestra posicion ideologica (ubicacion en el political compass previa eleccion de un diseño que represente todo el espectro que creamos adecuado) respecto de las sustancias psicoactivas y las vemos desde una nueva perspectiva, como un negocio.Mas alla de que Argentina se debe un debate enorme sobre la libertad de los adultos a modular o ecualizar sus estados mentales con sustancias (legales o ilegales) hoy quiero enfocar la discusion en algo mas acotado: el cultivo domestico de marihuana y su posterior venta.* Continuar leyendo...* ¿Que Opina Warren Buffett Sobre Tesla y Elon Musk?

GRAPHIC-Tech drives Nasdaq to all-time high as signs of recovery emerge from coronavirus pandemic
The heavyweight technology and growth stocks that drove Wall Street higher in recent years are again fueling a surge that has taken the Nasdaq from a brutal selloff to an intraday record high in just 11 weeks, as investors look beyond the economic upheaval caused by the coronavirus. The Nasdaq's 43% rise since late March puts the tech-heavy index far ahead of the broader S&P 500, highlighting investors' willingness to bet that tech and communication companies will emerge stronger from the pandemic. The Nasdaq index on Friday closed 2.06% higher on the day after earlier surpassing the previous intraday record high hit Feb. 19, just before fears of the coronavirus ended Wall Street's 11-year bull market.

‘Dear White People,’ ‘This Is America’ See Surge in Interest
(Bloomberg) -- The nationwide protests against police brutality and the killing of black people have sent Americans in search of movies, books and podcasts that deal with race.Demand for Netflix Inc.’s series “Dear White People” has surged 329%, research firm Parrot Analytics found. Interest in “When They See Us,” a 2019 series about the Central Park Five, has grown 147%, according to the firm, which gauges the popularity of shows based on social media, fan ratings and other measures.Childish Gambino’s “This Is America,” a 2018 song about race and violence in the U.S., reentered the top 50 on Spotify Technology SA’s service, which has promoted a hub for black history all week.Several books that discuss race relations in the U.S. have sold enough copies this week to be out of stock on Amazon.com Inc.’s site, including “How to Be an Antiracist,” Ralph Ellison’s “Invisible Man” and Isabel Wilkerson’s “The Warmth of Other Suns.” “Invisible Man,” a novel that explores what it meant to be black in the middle of the 20th century, was published in 1952.The killing of George Floyd while in police custody -- and the subsequent protests against racial injustice -- have brought introspection. In between debates about police reform, news outlets, activists and media companies have shared lists of edifying books and movies.The swell of interest has also extended to podcasts. Three series about race -- the New York Times’ “1619,” National Public Radio’s “Code Switch” and Crooked Media’s “Pod Save the People” -- rank among the five most popular shows on Apple Inc.’s podcast app.(A previous version of the story corrected the title in the second deck headline.

Apple stock heads for new record close
Apple Inc. shares are up 2.6% in Friday afternoon trading and on track to record a new all-time closing high if the gains hold through the end of the session. The stock needs to close above $327.20 to reach that milestone. The stock is on pace for its first record close since Feb. 12. "With roughly 350 million of...iPhones in the pent up 'window of an upgrade opportunity' we believe [Apple] has a unique opportunity to capture this delayed super cycle opportunity with a major 5G cycle on the horizon which will include a host of new smartphone versions/models for iPhone 12," Wedbush analyst Daniel Ives wrote in a note to clients late Thursday. He said Apple's stock represents his "best 5G play into the next year." Apple shares have added 11% over the past month as the Dow Jones Industrial Average has gained 14%.

Nasdaq hits record high as U.S. economy shows signs of rebound

On Friday, the U.S. Labor Department reported an increase in nonfarm payrolls of 2.5 million for the month of May, nowhere close to the decline of 8 million jobs that economists were expecting. The unemployment rate was also far better than expected, coming in at 13.3% in May. That's down from 14.7% in April, and well below forecasts calling for an unemployment rate of nearly 20%.
