- Deep Dive into 2Q17 Mac and PC Sales
- Additional Thoughts on New iPhone Pricing
- Thursday Q&A
We kick off today's email with my thoughts on IDC's and Gartner's 2Q17 PC shipment data. We then take a closer look at their Mac shipment projections and how they compare with my expectations. We also look at Michael Dell's odd comments about PC trends. The discussion then turns to my previous iPhone pricing projections. Specifically, we discuss what may happen at the lower end of the iPhone pricing spectrum. We end the email with the latest installment of member Q&A, and I answer the following questions from Above Avalon members:
- What do I think of Gene Munster's five-year model for Apple?
- How far out does my Apple earnings model go?
- What do I think could happen to Apple from a performance perspective over the medium term?
- What will happen if Tesla sees disappointing Model 3 demand?
- Why don't other Apple analysts buy the same reports out of Foxconn as Ming-Chi Kuo?
