AI fiber is now the whole story: Optical Communications sales rose 44% year over year to $2.38 billion, enough to carry an EPS beat even as total revenue missed expectations. Management guided Q4 core sales higher, so the buildout demand is still accelerating.

Mad Money w/ Jim Cramer 9/21/26

  • Retrospective on Tim Cook's Apple tenure, which ended September 1, 2026, built from a decade of Cramer interviews
  • Cramer's original thesis: Apple as the future health company and the future credit card company
  • Cook cited 11,000 ResearchKit signups in 24 hours for a Stanford cardiovascular study
  • Cramer framed Apple Pay as pushing retailers and card networks toward adoption

With Cook out of the CEO chair as of September 1, the case for Apple built on services, health data and payments now belongs to someone else to defend. Cramer's replay is a reminder that the growth story he backed for a decade rested on those businesses.
