Apple's Revenue Slump Apple Inc. reported lackluster sales revenue from China in the last quarter. The company said on July 23 that its rev- enue from China fell 14 percent year on year to4.6 billion in the quarter. The fisure, which represents a 43-percent decline from the previ- ous quarter, marked the first time that revenue decreased in the resion. Apple said its 8rowth in the Chinese market had slowed, particularly due to economic head- winds. China's GDP 8rowth eased to 7.6 percent in the first half, compared with 7.8 percent a year earlier. Apple's CEO Tim Cook said that he wasn't discourased by the numbers from just a 90- day period. "1 continue to believe that in the arc of time here, China is a huge opportunity for Apple," Cook said.
