“Here I’ve got the collected fiscal Q4 estimates of 33 Apple analysts — 21 professionals and 12 amateurs. They are all to a man (and one woman) predicting record Q4 sales and earnings (up 7.1% and 11.9%, respectively),” Philip Elmer-DeWitt reports for Fortune.
“Today should be a busy day on the Apple beat,” P.E.D. reports. ” Apple Pay goes live with the release of iOS 8.1, along with the launch of iCloud Photo Library and a functioning Handoff (which, for many of us on Yosemite, still isn’t working).”
“We should get some details about iPhone 6/6+ first-weekend sales in China, where every configuration is currently out of stock,” P.E.D. reports. “Capping it off, CEO Tim Cook and CFO Luca Maestri will host a conference call with analysts to discuss last quarter’s earnings and offer guidance for the big holiday quarter coming up.”
