Dear Subscribers,
Even Citigroup's lackluster earnings report Tuesday morning could not stop the market from churning higher. But then all eyes were fixed on Apple's earnings after hours. They were especially of interest given Monday's bombshell that Steve Jobs will be taking another medical leave of absence.
As the clock struck 4:30pm their earnings proved that they are in prime health as EPS for the past quarter surged to $6.43 (nearly +20% above expectations). They did it on revenue 11% above consensus with most product lines showing strength including an amazing 7.3 million iPads and 16 million iPhones sold. What is not surprising is that shares are jumping on the news. Certainly that is good news for Apple owners...but also when you couple that news with IBM's great results you understand why market futures are pointing nicely higher for Wednesday morning.
