A Look At Apple's Latest Disruption: WSJ

Apple Inc AAPL is exploring disruptive health-related features for its smartwatch, the Wall Street Journal reports.
The iPhone maker is exploring a tool to help users perceive when their blood pressure increases and a thermometer to help with fertility planning for a 2022 launch.
The fertility feature could be available as soon as 2022, with upgrades to its irregular heartbeat monitoring and sleep pattern tracking.
Apple aims for the smartwatch to detect sleep apnea, low blood oxygen guidance, and spot diabetes.
Apple smartwatch earned $13 billion in sales in 2020, commanding 65% of the global smartwatch market by revenue.
Apple is researching a proxy that measures the speed of the heartbeat wave via arteries using Apple Watch sensors. It is also researching cuffless blood-pressure devices.
Apple's deep-dive into health features could significantly boost its margins with its app store growth slowdown, anti-competitive concerns, and potential product-related delays.
Price Action: AAPL shares closed higher by 0.75% at $153.65 on Thursday.
