Apple earnings
Definition
The quarterly or annual financial results report released by Apple Inc., the tech giant behind iPhones and Macs, detailing revenue, profits, stock performance, and future guidance that sends Wall Street into a frenzy.
Informally, the moment when investors worldwide hold their breath to see if Cupertino's fruit-named empire has juiced enough cash from gadgets to keep the innovation orchard blooming.
