Apple shares down

There are plenty of problems for Apple and its iPhone production at its Chinese factory.

In particular Foxconn, the Zhengzhou plant's November shipments are expected to fall further, according to a report out from Reuters today. It's all about worker unhappiness. There have been riots at the plants. The plant doesn't employ enough people to continue to produce iPhones at the rate that Apple has requested.

Over 20,000 workers, according to reports, have left the plant. And this isn't a flagship iPhone plant for Apple. And China is very much underperforming the plans that Apple had for this particular site. And the site is the only factory where iPhone makes these premium iPhone models, including the iPhone 14 Pro, and it's unlikely to resume full production, according to Reuters, by the end of this month.

Share price chart

In fact, if you look at the Apple share price, there hasn't really been much move today. The stock is currently down all sessions on the IG platform. This is before US markets get under way today. It was no trade yesterday because of the Thanksgiving Day holiday. But we can see in terms of the movement in the session, in today's trade, we are down by a margin of just about about two thirds of 1%.

So not much move, but the news is not particularly good. And unless Apple can get some sort of resolution to this really quickly, there will be further problems.

Part of this is the fact that workers have been given what they perceive to be very difficult conditions in which to work because of the Zero-Covid policy. But at the moment at least, Apple is having continuing problems with the iPhone production in China.

    • Coffee Elliott Wave Analysis Coffee has recovered from the late November sharp drop. The next breakout will see it trading at the highest prices since the 1970s. For many decades, prices have been in a $300-wide range. Is it about to break the range and reach for new highs? Daily Chart Analysis On the daily chart, the price is evolving into a double zigzag structure from the January 2023 low of $141.85. Wave ((W)) in April 2024 followed by a dip for wave ((X)) which ended in May 2024 where wave ((Y)) started. It now appears the price is upside along the path of wave (Y) of ((Y)). This shows room for more upside for buyers before a significant pullback follows. H4 Chart Analysis On the h4 chart, the price appears to have completed wave A of (Y) and perhaps wave B in early December if the current rally progresses above wave A high. Thus, the commodity will most likely advance toward $385 in the coming days. With this, a new record high should happen. Technical Analyst : Sanmi Adeagbo Source : Tradinglounge.com get trial here!  
    • BAJAJ FINSERVE – BAJAJFINSV (1D Chart) Elliott Wave Technical Analysis Function: Counter Trend (Minor degree Grey) Mode: Corrective Structure: Impulse within larger degree correction. Position: Minor Wave 1 Grey Details: Minor Wave 1 is potentially complete below 1600. If correct, Minor Wave 2 rally should unfold towards 1800 levels before bears are back in control. Invalidation point: 2040 BAJAJ FINSERVE Daily Chart Technical Analysis and potential Elliott Wave Counts: BAJAJ FINSERVE daily chart is indicating a potential trend reversal against 2040 high, which was registered in September 2024. The larger degree uptrend looks complete as bears remain poised to complete the first impulse wave lower around 1400-1550 zone. Earlier, the stock had unfolded a larger degree triangle consolidation between July 2022 and June 2024, terminating Intermediate Wave (4) Orange around 1420 mark. Bulls managed to terminate Intermediate Wave (5) as a thrust impulse wave before prices reversed sharply lower. If the above holds well, price action would slip through the 1400 mark in the near term, before producing a counter trend rally.   BAJAJ FINSERVE – BAJAJFINSV (4H Chart) Elliott Wave Technical Analysis Function: Counter Trend (Minor degree Grey) Mode: Corrective Structure: Impulse within larger degree correction. Position: Minor Wave 1 Grey Details: Minor Wave 1 is potentially complete below 1600. If correct, Minor Wave 2 rally should unfold towards 1800 levels before bears are back in control. Alternatively, Minor Wave 1 could complete around 1400 mark before the corrective rally begins. Invalidation point: 2040 BAJAJ FINSERVE 4H Chart Technical Analysis and potential Elliott Wave Counts: BAJAJ FINSERVE 4H chart is highlighting the sub waves after Intermediate Wave (4) Orange terminated as a triangle around 1420 mark in June 2024. Intermediate Wave (5) unfolded as an impulse, terminating around 2035-40 mark. Furthermore, the stock has turned lower since then as a potential impulse lower could be either complete around 1565 mark or could extend through 1400 zone. Please note 1400 zone is close to the triangle termination of previous Wave (4) as well. Once Minor Wave 1 lower is complete, we can expect a counter trend rally to materialize. Conclusion: BAJAJ FINSERVE has potentially turned lower against 2040 high and it has potentially completed its first impulse drop around 1550 mark. If correct, a counter trend rally should be underway soon to unfold Minor Wave 2 Grey. Elliott Wave Analyst: Harsh Japee Source : Tradinglounge.com get trial here!
