Is Apple stock a buy right now?
AAPL stock is down about 12% since hitting $132.97 on July 20 - the day before Apple Inc. (Nasdaq: AAPL) reported earnings and revealed that iPhone sales had missed expectations.
In mid-morning trading today (Tuesday), Apple stock was hovering around $117.
In addition to missing on iPhone sales in the June quarter, analysts have voiced concerns that the new iPhone 6s, expected to be revealed Sept. 9, won't grow sales as well as its predecessor.
