苹果的股价最近走势不太“妙”,已经从两个月前的高点137.98美元跌至日前的108.86美元。上周四,苹果公布的四季度财报显示,iPhone销售情况弱于预期,苹果股价也随之再次走跌,三天内市值蒸发超1000亿美元。
iPhone销量不及预期的重要原因,是在大中华区表现不佳,销售收入同比下降28.6%至79.46亿美元,创2014年以来的新低。
不过,苹果公司CEO库克却对于iPhone的未来很有信心,这份信心同样也来自中国市场。去年,市场就对苹果新推出的iPhone11不支持5G表示质疑,今年,苹果用行动回应了质疑,新推出了支持5G的iPhone 12。库克称,中国的5G发展非常迅速,iPhone 12推出的时机刚刚好,他相信iPhone 12将在中国市场录得业绩增长,苹果对中国市场非常有信心。
