​5G is a major disrupter and a huge secular growth trend that you need to be a part of. 5G is the next generation of wireless network technology, designed to meet today's growing data demands for the future while also expanding the scope of mobile technology beyond the capabilities of LTE. It will be transformative, fueling innovation across every industry and every aspect of our lives. Over time, 5G technology will revolutionize the way we live, work, and play.  It’s projected there will be over 50 billion connected devices by the end of next year. Analysts expect 5G to deliver 10 to 40 times the current speed of 4G LTE networks. Its lower latency promises to enable new applications, from self-driving vehicles to cloud gaming. Here are a few of the key things 5G promises to do:
1. 10 to 100 times speedier than your typical cellular connection and even faster than anything you can get with a physical fiber-optic cable going into your house. For example, in optimal conditions, you'll be able to download a season's worth of Stranger Things in seconds.
2. Enable mobile HD video, mobile AR and VR, and many other applications benefiting from higher speeds. 
3. 5G will disrupt industries and bring more choices, particularly for home broadband. That’s right, 5G can replace your wired cable internet connection in your home.
4.  5G networks can respond almost in real time with next to zero delay, which enable new applications that respond instantly, especially important when a split-second in reaction time matters. Think self-driving cars, cloud gaming, real-time language translation, remote surgery, augmented reality, smart highways, and smart factories.  Very cool stuff!

Launching 5G will require the biggest overhaul of America’s wireless networks EVER. According to the GSM Association, which represents 800 of the world’s largest mobile operators, it will cost roughly half a trillion dollars to build out the necessary infrastructure!

Jony Ive, Apple’s chief design officer, is leaving the company, Apple announced. The company’s stock dropped 1% on the news in after-hours trading. John Ive is definitely one of the most important people at Apple, and he was responsible for the industrial design and the look and feel of all major Apple products, including the iPhone and the Mac. Ive had been with Apple for more than 20 years, and this is certainly interesting news for Apple shareholders.

Ive is going to start his own design business, called LoveFrom, along with longtime friend and fellow designer Marc Newson, according to a Financial Times report. Apple will be a client.

Apple certainly has some headwinds, and this news today doesn’t help. With that said, they have been more focused on recurring revenues with their service model, and 5G is going to be a major revenue stream in the near future. I’m long Apple, and I believe they will likely outperform over the next 5-10 years, primarily because of 5G. Everyone will need a new phone to use 5G. This will force phone upgrades, which has been one of their major headwinds.
