Apple stock was up on Friday, outperforming other tech stocks as investors see the company as a safe harbor following fiscal Q324 earnings that best The Street on the top and bottom lines.
Apple on Thursday announced financial results for its fiscal 2024 third quarter ended June 29, 2024. The company posted quarterly revenue of $85.8 billion, up 5 percent year over year, and quarterly earnings per diluted share of $1.40, up 11 percent year over year.

Traders may be flocking to Apple as tech stocks experience a downturn following a strong first half of the year. Needham analyst
Laura Martin maintained a Buy rating and $260 price target on Apple, and wrote in a note on Friday that the stock “is a good place to hide,” after earnings.
Whether Apple’s strength lasts remains to be seen. For now, though, the stock looks like a good place to lay low.

What? INTL is down nearly 27%? AMZN down “only” 10% and AAPL up 3% (most big tech DOWN same amt).
Thank goodness for yesterday” report and, or all the Apple Intel “hype?”
These kinds of single day movement comparisons are fun but ultimately short lived. AAPL on Monday lost more ground in contrast to AMZN, MSFT, NVDA and if you include after hours even INTL didn’t lose as much as AAPL.
