OK, why is Apple up? Please don't say because everything is.

Things were such that I couldn't post yesterday afternoon nor earlier today.
It is my belief that this story from yesterday led to AAPL's nice gain today:

EU points to autumn decision in Apple tax probe - Irish fin min

DUBLIN, July 13 (Reuters) - The European Union's antitrust chief has indicated that it will likely reach a
decision in September or October on its two-year probe into Apple's tax dealings with Ireland, Ireland's
finance minister said on Wednesday.

The European Commission accused Ireland in 2014 of dodging international tax rules by letting Apple
shelter profits worth tens of billions of dollars from tax collectors in return for maintaining jobs. Apple
and Ireland reject the accusation.

"Commissioner Vestager indicated to me that there wouldn't be a decision in July but there would probably
be a decision early in the autumn. My expectation is September or early October," Michael Noonan told a
news conference after meeting antitrust chief Margrethe Vestager on Tuesday.

Because it's trying real hard and people are sympathetic and buying to make Apple happy.

And birds will fly in through your window and clean up your house for you - don't you love fairy tales?

But what the heck do I know?
