Apple undoubtedly there are some problems with the sale iPhone model, which is not in line with what analysts expected, and the 19-point maker for Apple shows a decline in profits for the first time since 2016.

The Taiwanese company Catcher, which makes metal frames for iPhone X, has a large decline in revenue of 28 percent in December. Largan Precision lens manufacturer for the iPhone camera also had an even larger drop in sales of 33.86 percent.

Income from the company Foxconn, the main component of Apple's product range, declined 8.27 percent in December compared to the same period in 2017. This is attributed to a relatively high demand reduction in the consumer electronics segment.

Apple recently pointed out that the weaker than expected sales of the iPhone model is due to a trade war between the US and China, as well as other external factors. The company has asked suppliers of component components to cut prices by more than 10%, which could mean a pretty bad quarter for the company.
