Yeah I don't think Tim Cook is gonna back-track on that. The stuff sold in the I-Store is a different issue. This is about allowing SNAP, FB etc to access certain features in IOS that Apple has deemed to be the user's private information.Super tough question. Right now these companies are hurting because of Apple's changes it made to their (I'll be honest i don't understand) the give and take between these developers and selling at he Apple store and what Apple skims etc.
Initially I went through this problem and found a rather modest hit to everyone's earnings. FB, SNAP etc. BUT SOMETHING BIG CHANGED the metric companies that measure the ads and target placement they got jittery and advertising came into question- and down the stocks went. It's a 1,2 punch. So what next.
RBLX we have shorted at $90 for Granny and it bottomed at $70. The stk is acting like it is somewhat insulated from this... Does RBLX sell more through their own channel> right and not rely on the ap store<--- That's my thinking as I have been looking at going long RBLX. Even if all the kids in China can't play.
Look Out Below Granny!
Roblox Corporation (RBLX) $82----> 78
77.92-2.65 (-3.29%)

So my approach would be twofold. Buy RBLX over SNAP for now and wait for any news about Apple changing this new policy... I think they just might and then SNAP would go up $10.~
SNAP may get in a range here for the next 3 months, I suspect the big money will want at least another Q to see where the dust settles. The question is where are we, at the moment in that range? Bottom, middle, top? Somewhere else? This the the question for now.
I think you called out granny's short at $82 on RBLX. It went to $90 after that, dropped to $70, back at $82 now. It is different in the fact that they can mine data on the user within the app. They make their revenue off in-app purchases using Robux.
