This is going to do nothing to ease concerns. Seems like the smoke really did point to some lackluster fire...

Considering how quickly iPhone X came into balance, I’m pretty shocked that they only barely beat guidance.

The good part is that the March quarter guidance is not bad at all. I'm saying that in reference to "Apple halves iPhone production...".

Any word on buybacks?

I’m surprised by lower guidance since the X was a later quarter release. Not surprised by lower iPad and Mac sales in a quarter where you saw the release of a $1000 iPhone, and huge surge in popularity of the Apple Watch and AirPods. Consumers can’t buy everything.

Looking how the stock behave just barely 1% down, i would not be surprised to see it in the green tomorrow.

As for the iPhone decline, last year was a 14 weeks Q. SO basically no decline this Q

This is a very good quarter .... per the numbers. As always, it makes no sense for this to be down especially since it was hit so hard the last two weeks .... great buying opportunity.
Typical nonsense that goes with this stock .... new highs coming soon.
Cheers to the longs ....

Typical nonsense that goes with this stock .... new highs coming soon. Cheers to the longs .... Completely agree. Another interesting dynamic that may help Q2 is all the corporations announcing $1000 bonuses for employees. Seems like they almost have to go the $1000 bonus route (at least) or appear stingy at this point. It's a form of stimulus handed to people in just the right amount to perhaps buy a new iPhone or other Apple product(s).

$284 billion in cash and marketable securities. I'm worried about the possibility of a "special dividend" ... This is supposed to be a low[er] income year for me, and I won't be happy if they "force" a special dividend on me!

It’s pretty amazing to see a supertanker of a company preforming like a speedboat. That’s a pretty neat trick.

Not impressed with iPhone numbers or guidance.
Hence no move in stock.
I still think we will hit 180 soon

I have one statement for the analysts & journalists and their "50% production cut" incredibly wrong headlines.
F*ck you. I hope you were short going into earnings.

Trailing 12 month earnings are 9.73/share.
If AAPL gets up to a P/E of 20 this quarter, that puts it at 194.6
Previously Apple's market cap would hit $1T at 192.92 (using 5,183,585,xxx diluted shares from last quarter) Now, Apple's market cap will pass $1T at 193.89 (using 5,157,787,xxx diluted shares from this quarter)
So....the next time AAPL hits a P/E of 20, this quarter, next, or whenever, Apple will likely have a market cap of $1T!
Now let's see it!

It's crazy how high the expectations are from Apple every quarter every year! It took me a long time to get over the market's ho-hum reaction to the previous ER in October which had great numbers.
Today is not any different. But it can't be long before all the stupid mofos wake up to this great company's solid business and fantastic financials. We should see green tomorrow and steadily rise over time.
