It's Wednesday, February 1st.

Welcome to Market Foolery.

I'm Chris Hill joining me in studio today for Motley Full Funds, Bill Barker.

Happy February.

Thank you.

We've got some earnings to get to and tomorrow is Groundhog Day.

And if you're a long time listener, you know that that means there's, I'm going to say a 100% chance

that we're going to talk about Groundhog today.

But we'll do that later in the show after we get to the earnings.

We've got electronic arts, we've got a line technology, but we've got to start with the

behemus that just keeps getting bigger and that's Apple.

What a first quarter they put up.

A record 78.3 million iPhones that were sold.

They had record revenue in their Services Division, in their Mac Division, in their Applewatch

division.

And not surprisingly, the stock up, it was up 6% at one point this morning, hitting a new high. It was there anything bad in this quarter because it really doesn't seem like it?

I think you've told most of this story although it is somewhat surprising that it is up as much as it is because the guidance that it gave for next quarter was somewhat muted in compared to expectations prior to today's release.

So I think people, and this is not the typical behavior are looking at what's in the

bank and getting really impressed by that and looking at what is promised to come

and and weighing that a little bit less So I think that's the only thing. There's nothing in the quarter just passed that you can take issue with.

Yeah, an apple shareholder. Cash on the balance sheet is now, I believe.

All.
