Apple leads in the smartphone market - again

According to the International Data Corporation (IDC) report, Apple Inc. has secured the leading position in the smartphone market for the first time since 2010. The second position is now held by the former leader, Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. Notably, the overall smartphone market volume has declined by 3.2%, reaching a total of 1.17 billion devices.

If Apple manages to maintain its market share, the company's revenue will likely increase further amid the sector's recovery. In Q4 2023, this market saw an 8.5% growth compared to the previous year, with 326.1 million shipments, surpassing the forecasted 7.3% growth.

So, today, we will examine the Apple Inc (NASDAQ: AAPL) stock chart.

On the D1 timeframe, resistance has formed at 194.66, with support at 180.17. There is a high likelihood that the current downward trend will be broken after a rebound from the support level.

On the H1 timeframe, a rebound from the 180.17 level could set a short-term target for a price increase at 189.06, while in the medium term, it could hover around 198.26.
