Here's Why JPMorgan Trimmed Apple's Earnings Outlook

  • JPMorgan analyst Samik Chatterjee sees consumer spending restricting the upside expectations from Apple Inc's (NASDAQ: AAPL) launch of the iPhone SE3 and will likely limit the magnitude of upside to iPhone 13 and App Store revenue in Services. 
  • Chatterjee trimmed earnings forecasts for Apple, led by a "modest haircut" to revenue growth estimates for iPhone and Services. 
  • However, the overall reduction in estimates is "fairly modest given the resilience" of high-end smart smartphones, tablets, and laptops to the broader slowdown in consumer spending.

  • Other analysts saw Apple tide through the Covid resurgence in China as its peers perished.
  • Price Action: AAPL shares traded lower by 0.71% at $170.63 in the market session on the last check Thursday.
