00:00:00.440 --> 00:00:03.890
what has happened here is uh, after suffering from

00:00:03.890 --> 00:00:08.679
a global watch supply shortage, Apple is now confronting

00:00:08.689 --> 00:00:12.359
a different problem that is slowing demand ahead of uh

00:00:12.369 --> 00:00:16.070
, the christmas season. And what happened is the

00:00:16.070 --> 00:00:19.100
company has told its uh, component suppliers that this

00:00:19.100 --> 00:00:22.949
man for uh, its latest iPhone 13 lineup has

00:00:22.960 --> 00:00:27.480
weakened and then this shows that some consumers that may

00:00:27.480 --> 00:00:31.660
have decided against trying to get the new iphone.

00:00:32.340 --> 00:00:36.280
And last month we reported that Apple has cut its

00:00:36.289 --> 00:00:38.929
eyeballs floating production goal for this year by as many

00:00:38.929 --> 00:00:42.320
as 10 million units. Original suppliers were hoping that

00:00:42.329 --> 00:00:45.450
they could recruit some of these orders when they have

00:00:45.460 --> 00:00:48.939
enough uh, components. But now I was telling

00:00:48.939 --> 00:00:51.960
them that there is no need to do so to

00:00:51.969 --> 00:00:56.689
uh, something in demands. Debbie given all the

00:00:56.689 --> 00:00:59.030
uncertainties, it's probably not really that much of a

00:00:59.030 --> 00:01:00.140
surprise that consumers, as you say are holding off

00:01:00.140 --> 00:01:03.060
on upgrading. But what does it mean in general

00:01:03.060 --> 00:01:07.140
for Apple's bumper holiday season, are they still on

00:01:07.140 --> 00:01:11.549
track to get some pretty good figures? Uh,

00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:15.030
So Apple chief executive of the 13 could decide in

00:01:15.030 --> 00:01:18.540
the last earnings call that they expect a record quarter

00:01:18.549 --> 00:01:22.299
record shells for this holiday quarter. And what this

00:01:22.310 --> 00:01:25.090
means is that uh, it is still possible that

00:01:25.099 --> 00:01:27.730
Apple may enjoy a record setting quarter. It's just

00:01:27.730 --> 00:01:30.739
that they will be, will not be able to

00:01:30.739 --> 00:01:33.859
perform as well as they would have liked
