Apple Announces M1 Chip, Tesla Added to S&P 500

E1 • Dec 7, 2020 • 4 mins

In this episode, Shamus Madan analyzes Apple's move to their own chips and its impact on Intel and other chip manufacturers, compares it to Samsung's similar strategy, and discusses Tesla's acceptance into the S&P 500. He wraps up with a preview of future episodes.

Key Points

  • Apple has released new Mac models with their own M1 Max chip, outperforming Intel's chips in base model devices and potentially reducing manufacturing costs by eliminating the need to pay Intel.
  • Tesla's inclusion in the S&P 500 has led to a short-term increase in their stock price, but historically, such inclusions do not have a significant long-term impact on stock prices.
  • Investors in the S&P 500 index will now indirectly invest in Tesla, as the company has become one of the top 10 constituents of the index.

Apple announced a new M1 chip for their Macs ditching Intel CPU's forever. What could this mean for Intel's business?

Tesla has been accepted into the S&P 500. What does that mean for Tesla in the short term and the long term?
