Apple Shares Drop Despite Strong Q3 Earnings and Revenue Growth
Apple reported third-quarter earnings that exceeded Wall Street expectations, with shares falling 2.5% in extended trading despite the strong results. The company earned $2.02 per share on revenue of $94.8 billion for the period ending June 27, representing a 16% year-over-year increase. The decline came as investors focused on weaker-than-expected performance from Apple's Services segment and ongoing challenges in China, which offset strong iPhone sales driven by demand for new models like the iPhone 15. Analysts noted that while revenue growth was robust overall, concerns over slowing global economic conditions and supply chain issues weighed heavily. The mixed reaction highlights investor sensitivity to regional market risks and service business performance amid broader macroeconomic uncertainty.
