Guess my thread came at the right timing....

 

Or maybe this is sarcasm? Either way, the quarter was bad when you dig into it. Profits did beat by a few cents, though it's always been the case. And revenue, sales, and guidance showed worrying signs.

Sensationalism much?

"Last year Apple notched a record $18 billion in profit during this period, the largest ever recorded by a single public corporation. This year the company topped that, generating a profit of $18.4 billion on $75.9 billion in revenue during the last three months of 2015."

....and the main seller this year is an S model. 

How so? Profits did beat, but Apple has been doing this for 9 years straight, so investors don't worry about this as much. Flat revenue is a big worry, especially considering how they're expecting next year to be down, and how it would be the first down year since god knows when. And say what you will, but all of its major product lines disappointed in sales. Now I'm getting this all from CNBC, I literally just found out about this 5 minutes ago.
