Apple Shares Clubbed Again

January 4, 2019 By Jeremy Jones, CFA

Apple shares were clubbed again yesterday after the company lowered revenue guidance for the upcoming quarter. The stock lost 10% yesterday—the biggest single day drop in six years. The shares are down 38% from their high last year, translating into a $450 billion loss in market value.

Apple pointed the finger at China, but there is more to the story than the weakening of Asia’s biggest economy. A saturated smartphone market, missteps in select emerging markets, and a major mistake on pricing are all parts of Apple’s problem.

We have long harbored doubts about Apple’s ability to sustain strong margins in a fiercely competitive and historically deflationary industry.

Below is some of our research from last year on Apple.
