Apple Stock Reaches All-time High After Chinese Agencies Show iPhone Sales Spike

Apple shipped 3.2 million iPhones in China through December, boosting sales dramatically despite the trade war between the world’s biggest economies, marking a significant rise in the company’s market stake.

Apple’s iPhone sales in China rose more than 18% last month, according to CNBC calculations using government data published by the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology, a government think tank. The iPhone manufacturer shipped 3.2 million of their phones in China through December – up from 2.7 million units shipped in December 2018, according to the data.

Apple stock rose more than 2% on the news Thursday, reaching a new all-time high of $309.63 when markets closed.

In Q1 2019 Apple reported revenue from China of $13.17 billion, down $5 billion from the same time period in 2018.

According to November data from Counterpoint Research, Apple had just 8 percent of the market share in China during the third quarter of 2019, down from 9 percent during the same time period in 2018. Huawei remains ahead of other companies in their home market with a 40 percent share, trailed by Vivo, Oppo and Xiaomi.
