Apple’s Big Losses: Would Tesla Acquisition Stop The Bleeding?

It’s been the stock’s worst losing streak in nearly two decades, sparked by the tech giant’s weak quarterly results, including its first-ever decline in iPhone sales. In those eight days, the stock lost nearly 13% of its value. And in the last 12 sessions, Apple has dropped 16.5%. Apple shares are rising 1.5% in above-average volume Tuesday. In Monday’s session, the stock came within 40 cents of its August low in intraday trade before paring its losses. Apple is now 28% below its 52-week high. Apple CEO Tim Cook appeared on CNBC’s “Mad Money” Monday evening to try to stop the bleeding. Cook briefly talked about the company’s acquisitive nature. But the company has not made a big acquisition in a while. Some experts say Apple should buy Tesla Motors ( TSLA ), as it continues to invest more in its top-secret car project, dubbed Project Titan. Tesla Motors reports quarterly results after the close on Wednesday. Analysts expect the luxury electric car maker’s per-share loss to widen to 57 cents, amid production and Gigafactory investments. Revenue is projected to jump 45% to nearly $1.6 billion. That marks a third straight quarter of faster top-line growth as it ramps up production of the Model X crossover. Tesla is dropping 2.3% in above-average trade and is nearing its 50-day and 200-day lines. Tesla is back below a 239.98 buy point it initially cleared several weeks ago, and is trading 17% below its 52-week high. Meanwhile, Alphabet ( GOOGL )-owned Google and Fiat Chrysler ( FCAU ) are planning several dozen self-driving prototypes in the first phase of a joint effort to create autonomous cars, according to Bloomberg, following similar reports last week. Alphabet is trading below its 200-day line in the wake of a disappointing earnings reports. Alphabet is 12% below its February high, falling fractionally Tuesday. Fiat Chrysler, which reported U.S. April sales on Tuesday, slid 2.4% intraday. Scalper1 News Scalper1 News Related posts: Will Tesla Model 3 Reveal Be More Exciting Than Apple Spring Event?
