EPS beats "expectations" beats "whisper number" (2.07), stock goes down. I'll never understand this stuff Can't "manipulate" revenue. So much more than bottom line when it comes to earnings reports.

I haven't seen it posted but I'll bet overall net income is less than last year. Share buybacks are masking declining net income and boosting EPS.
Divi increase to $0.63 (+10.5%) which isn't bad.

EPS beats "expectations" beats "whisper number" (2.07), stock goes down. I'll never understand this stuff Buy on rumor, sell on news? All the big US carriers already said smartphones were down, but still... And then revenue for Q3 looked low at first glance, but the range is 1.1B-3.1B higher than year-ago. ....but ya know, the stock goes up, and the stock goes down. As long as it goes up more than down in the longer term, it's all good. Looks like the RSI has barely touched below 50 in the past 5 months. It's been working in the right direction for the longs, and I hope it can continue that direction for the next 3-4 months....though I'd expect more negative rumors to hit sometime in that range too (i.e. further delays expected, higher costs, lower orders through suppliers, etc). But hey, when something as simple as an interest rate hike from the feds can be taken positively or negatively, you know that anything can happen to the stock unless it's a completely unexpected grand slam or a unforeseen huge loss.
