I agree. It's interesting info to know, but not something to get worked up about. MG Siegler seems to take pride in Apple making a lot of money, for example. I'm really unclear why I should get excited if Apple make $30B this year or $25B unless I'm a shareholder.

Well heck, I am an Apple shareholder, but still don't particularly care whether Apple happens to sell more phones than any other individual company, as long as they're still selling plenty of phones and making plenty of money.

I mean, I'd prefer 'em to be making more money rather than less money, but it's not a great idea to get too emotionally invested in every piece of news about every company you happen to have some money in.
