James Lu and Raymond Zage have engaged financial and legal advisers to explore the possibility of taking the company private, primarily through debt financing.-Anurag Rana, Bloomberg Intelligence Technology Analyst, discusses Apple preparing to expand its manufacturing operations in Vietnam as part of a push into the smart home market and an effort to lessen its dependence on China.
