Apple share price to strike back?

Being one of the tech heavy-weights of Nasdaq, Apple share price had taken a severe beating in recent months after a magnificent run that saw Apple becoming the first USD 1 trillion company in United States. Shortly after that impressive feat, Apple share price lost steam unexpectedly as the stock plunged from a high of USD 230 in October 2018 to USD 145 recently.

Thus, retail investors must be aware that Apple share price could be in for a wild ride in the coming months as trade tensions fluctuate between United States and China.

The recent correction in Apple share price should be attributed to the toxic market condition and not caused by poor business fundamentals.
