This growth is mainly attributed to the recovery in the Chinese and American markets, while also achieving double-digit growth in Japan, India, and the Middle East. Despite facing pressure from domestic competitors, Apple maintained its competitiveness through price reduction measures, offering discounts of up to 2,530 yuan on the iPhone 16 on e-commerce platforms in China in May Reuters, June 13 - According to Counterpoint Research, Apple's (AAPL.O) iPhone sales in China rose to first place in May, with global sales increasing by 15% year-on-year during April and May, marking the tech giant's strongest performance in these two months since the COVID-19 pandemic. Preliminary data from Counterpoint Research indicates that the main reason for the global sales growth is Apple's recovery in its two largest markets, China and the United States. Counterpoint noted that Apple has benefited to some extent from tariff evaders, and also achieved double-digit growth in Japan, India, and the Middle East markets. Ivan Lam, a senior analyst at Counterpoint Research, stated, "The performance of the iPhone in the second quarter looks promising so far, but as always, the trends are determined by the U.S. and Chinese markets." According to calculations from the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology, which is directly under the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the shipment of overseas brand smartphones, including Apple's iPhone, in China increased from 3.5 million units in the same period last year to 3.52 million units in April. Apple is facing increasingly fierce competition from domestic rivals in China and has implemented price cuts to maintain competitiveness. In May, Chinese e-commerce platforms offered discounts of up to 2,530 yuan (351 USD) on Apple's latest iPhone 16 models ### Related Stocks - [AAPL.US - Apple](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AAPL.US.md) - [AAPB.US - GraniteShares 2x Long AAPL Daily ETF](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AAPB.US.md) - [AAPD.US - Direxion Daily AAPL Bear 1x Shares](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AAPD.US.md) - [AAPU.US - Direxion Daily AAPL Bull 2X Shares](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AAPU.US.md) - [AAPX.US - T-Rex 2X Long Apple Daily Target ETF](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AAPX.US.md) - [AAPY.US - Kurv Yield Premium Strategy Apple Aapl ETF](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AAPY.US.md) - [APLY.US - YieldMax AAPL Option Income Strategy ETF](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/APLY.US.md) ## Related News & Research | Title | Description | URL | |-------|-------------|-----| | 段永平试水 “AI 交易”：卖苹果加仓英伟达，“新入” CoreWeave、Credo 和 Tempus | CoreWeave 专门搭建高性能 GPU 集群，把算力租给 AI 公司和企业客户；如果说 GPU 是心脏，Credo 提供的高速互联芯片和光模块就是血管，跟 AI 服务器迭代高度绑定；Tempus 则致力于将 AI 应用于精准医疗，尤其是 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276189117.md) | | IronBridge Private Wealth LLC 持有苹果公司价值 905,000 美元的股份 | IronBridge Private Wealth LLC 在第三季度将其在苹果公司（NASDAQ:AAPL）的持股减少了 77.3%，目前持有 3,555 股，价值 905,000 美元。其他机构投资者，包括先锋集团和道富银行，已增加了在 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276436345.md) | | Rossmore Private Capital 提升了其在苹果公司 $AAPL 的头寸 | Rossmore Private Capital 在第三季度将其在苹果公司（NASDAQ:AAPL）的持股增加了 1.1%，目前持有 204,242 股，市值为 5200 万美元。其他对冲基金也增加了他们的持股，Sellwood Inves | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276436349.md) | | 苹果公司计划在 2026 年推出一款具有创新设计的折叠屏 iPhone | 苹果计划于 2026 年秋季推出其首款可折叠智能手机——iPhone Fold。该设备将采用书本式设计，折叠时厚度为 9-9.5 毫米，展开时为 4.5-4.8 毫米。其框架将采用钛合金以增强耐用性，而铰链将结合钛合金和不锈钢。这一信息已得 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276507952.md) | | 聪明资金在苹果期权上进行大额押注 | 投资者对苹果公司（NASDAQ:AAPL）表现出乐观情绪，已识别出 13 笔显著的期权交易。这些交易显示出 61% 的看涨情绪和 30% 的看跌情绪，总计看涨期权为 1,253,564 美元，看跌期权为 231,776 美元。分析师预计 A | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276456192.md) | --- > **Disclaimer**: This article is for reference only and does not constitute any investment advice.
