In this respect, the case could interpret the Apple’s stock by 2.4 percent to 118 dollars as a normal correction, the price would already slipped by 11 percent since February, is not; he would not have fallen in nine of the last ten trading days – and the end of July had the Wall Street after the presentation of the quarterly figures expressed in the success of the iPhone manufacturer, because it is not clear how the Apple Watch suggests the market and uncertainty as to whether the undisputed sales success of the iPhone 6 can easily extrapolate to the successor so.

                         
         
         
                                                             

China is the largest market

Most importantly, the price fall of Apple’s stock on Monday is noteworthy because previously two market research companies have consistently reported Apple had the crown in the world’s largest market for smartphones is lost: In China, a country with depending on the measurement 500 to 700 millions of smartphone users, Apple’s market share was in the end of June ended the second quarter of the analyst firms Canalys and Counterpoint Research with more than 12 percent only in third place behind the second-placed Huawei of Shenzen and the gossamer leading manufacturer Xiaomi from Beijing, who has sold over this period almost 16 percent of all smartphones in China.

                         
         
         
                                                                                      
         
         
                                                             

The Middle Kingdom is not some sales region for Apple. The 1.4 billion inhabitants nation is likely to be the largest market for Californians this year. The charisma of the brand in the many metropolises of the vast country is huge. The Apple stores in Beijing and Hangzhou are full. In Shanghai’s trend districts that Apple Watch buzzing countless wrists status-conscious Chinese. And as the author of this article recently in Hong Kong after the new, ultra-thin MacBook asked the purpose of the acquisition, the Apple employees broke into compassionate laughter – for weeks the unit was sold from the mainland in all ten Apple outlets of the city due to the demand of Chinese tourists .

                         
         
         
                                                             

instantaneous forward

The fact is that China has saved the most recent quarterly results from Apple. Compared to the previous period, the Group’s turnover has doubled smoothly in China. Market share figures, especially for the short period of three months, are there more of a snapshot. And the estimates of analysts are already treated with caution. In previous quarters Xiaomi had ever held the market leadership. That the manufacturer, which is often referred to as “Chinese Apple”, currently sold most phones, also has to do with the fact that the launch of the iPhone 6 now already back is almost ten months. Xiaomi, however, has brought to the market with its new phablet Mi note and the only one-sixth of an expensive iPhones Redmi 2 with 4.7-inch screen and the casing color “lime green” and “yellow powder” two new bestseller.
