Jacob was a big guy. At 6’5” 285 he commanded respect. Every day he wondered over to the taco stand about 3pm for a snack. Because they didn’t want any trouble, Jacob had been invited by campus police to the new pizza parlor on campus.

The soft opening was to begin on June 1 at Tulane’s food court on Friday in the LBC at 11am. Jacob could not wait. He imagined the pizza would compliment the tacos later in the afternoon, a capitol idea he thought to himself.

As Jacob sauntered over to the pizza shop, he spied media cars lioned up outside the LBC. In an interview he heard the pizza maker ask, Would Tulane Volley Ball team win out.” Jacob scratched his head, had he heard correctly. Jacob knew one thing – he was rooting for Tulane.

Concerns about Apple’s Future Growth

You said you concerned about Apple’s potential to maintain growth and profitability. I do understand how you feel. The recent volatility in the stock market has made investors anxious, but please don’t worry about it. I am very optimistic about the stock price of Apple. Although Apple is currently trading at $109.27 per share,the current decline is only temporary. I expect it will recover next week.I believe that the stock fluctuated within expectations, and in the long run Apple's share price is bound to rise. I strongly recommend that you should hold the Apple stock for the long run. I hope my advice is helpful to you. If you still have questions you can contact me at any time.

Apple has a Strong Future Outlook

Nowadays, Apple is the first trillion-dollar company and has minted countless fortunes. According to CNN estimates, the iPhone alone could generate $165 billion in sales this fiscal year, representing 62 percent of apple's total revenue. That means that iPhone generated more revenue than the 492 companies in the S&P 500 last year. Apple just held its launch event. When releasing a new product, its share price would jump after the launch. Apple is diversifying its business beyond the iPhone. The company, which includes the App Store, Apple Pay, iTunes and Apple Music service units, had $30 billion in sales last fiscal year. It is expected to grow 25 percent to $37.5 billion this year and then to $45 billion in fiscal 2019.Moreover, for now, iPhone still remains popular. More than 500 million iPhone users are currently using models from at least two years ago. The number of iPhone buyers using older models continues to grow.It could be very good news for Apple’s market.Finally, Apple released their financial statement for the second quarter of 2018 on July 31 which showedthat its operating performance was exceeded expectations. And Apple paid $20 billion to buy back shares according to the results.This buyback was similar to the company's $22.8 billion buyback in the first quarter, more than any other company in the same type market.
