“Machine and Map readouts both point to incremental onshoring tailwinds for Apple, with no hard regulatory or supply ceilings identified and no contrary tape data yet available. Lacking a binding blocker or a confirming mechanics-based distribution pattern, the setup offers no high-conviction divergence to trade.”
Action: Maintain core exposure; no tactical trade warranted until a clearer blocker or tape signal emerges.
