Why AAPL today

Apple fell about 2% on Tuesday after its fiscal fourth-quarter report. Revenue was $114.5 billion (+12%) and diluted EPS $2.10 (+14%, including $0.05 from tariff refunds), with iPhone revenue up 17% to a September-quarter record of $57.6 billion, and the results topped estimates. The shares slid on the outlook: coverage of the call says Apple guided December-quarter revenue growth of about 7% to 10% and a gross margin of 45% to 46%, below the 47.9% it just reported (which included about one point from tariff refunds), citing higher memory costs and expenses tied to Siri AI. Fiscal 2026 revenue reached a record $478.8 billion.

Technical view

Our read: Mixed (Pullback)

The reading is mixed after a pullback. Price is below its 21 and 50 EMAs but still above its 100 EMA and about 9% above its 200-day EMA (near $304), RSI is 41.7 (weak, not oversold) and the chart's MACD line is below its signal line. The quarter itself was strong, with sales up 12%, EPS up 14% and a record iPhone quarter, but the December-quarter gross margin guide of 45% to 46% and higher memory costs weighed on the shares. Forty-three analysts rate the stock a Buy, though the average target of about $333 sits close to the price, and the trailing P/E is high at about 37. The Options Swing Helper shows option premium as cheap (HV Rank 27.25%). The levels to watch are today's low near $325.33 and the 100 EMA near $322.79 on the downside, and the 50 EMA near $334.27 and the 21 EMA near $340.75 on the upside.
