Apple (APPL US) issued a profit warning post close on Tuesday afternoon. WSJ writes;
Apple lowered its sales forecast for its fiscal first quarter, a rare revision to its guidance, blaming slowing sales of smartphones and other devices in China.
Mr. Cook said Apple anticipated challenges in key emerging markets, but didn’t expect the magnitude of the economic deceleration, especially in China. A contraction in the region’s smartphone market was particularly sharp, he said.
“Most of our revenue shortfall to our guidance, and over 100% of our year-over-year worldwide revenue decline, occurred in Greater China across iPhone, Mac and iPad,” Mr. Cook wrote.
