In today's video I look at fundamentals, financial metrics, and recent news for Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) and Disney (NYSE:DIS). Below I share a few highlights from the video. Apple is scheduled to report earnings on July 27. Investors should keep an eye on projected iPhone and other hardware sales for the second half of the year, especially after reports surfaced that Apple had requested an increase in production for its iPhone products. Disney is scheduled to report earnings on August 12. Investors should keep an eye on how amusement parks and other outdoor experiences are doing now that parts of the world are reopening and should note the growth of subscription streaming platform Disney+. Apple stock price was down more than 3% at one point during July 19 trading. The price decrease could be due to the overall red day in the market and also due to a report by a cybersecurity researcher stating that the iPhone has a security problem. *Stock prices used were the midday prices of July 19, 2021.
