The market’s most important stocks, simplified

Apple Inc. reported strong fiscal Q2 2025 results, with revenue of $95.36 billion and earnings per share (EPS) of $1.65, both exceeding analyst expectations. Revenue grew 5% year-over-year, driven by a 12% increase in Services revenue to $26.65 billion and an expanding installed base of Apple devices. The company announced a $100 billion share buyback program and a quarterly dividend of 26 cents per share. Despite a 10% global rise in iPhone shipments, Apple faced a 9% decline in China market share due to limited exposure to local smartphone subsidies. Analysts, including JPMorgan, remain optimistic about Apple's ecosystem and Services growth, with a $245 price target. However, geopolitical tensions, tariff-related challenges, and regulatory risks pose significant headwinds. Tariffs on Chinese-made products could cost Apple $39.5 billion, with a $900 million impact expected in Q3, prompting plans to shift production to India. A recent court ruling requiring alternative payment methods in the App Store may reduce EPS by 2%-3% and slow Services revenue growth by 80-200 basis points if appeals fail. Competitive pressures in the payment space and rising inventory costs further compound risks. While Apple's ecosystem and historical resilience during downturns are strengths, near-term challenges warrant close monitoring.
