Apple Inc. shares fell amid rumors of delays in its upcoming foldable iPhone, though these reports were denied. The company’s growth is driven by a focused AI strategy emphasizing hardware, ecosystem integration, and privacy rather than flashy new models. Apple’s installed user base grew 8.7% to 2.5 billion, with iPhone sales up 23% last quarter, supporting record-high gross margins expected to reach 48–49%.
