Apple’s Revenue Increases 4 Percent Despite Slowing iPhone Sales
The tech giant’s sales of apps and services helped profit grow 7 percent from a year ago, even as the company contended with slumping sales in China.
By Tripp Mickle
The focus of my coverage is Apple, the world’s largest technology company. My stories range from announcements about the company’s latest product launch to deep dives into its manufacturing dependency on China to reporting on its political challenges in Washington. I also write about trends across the tech industry, including layoffs, generative A.I. and robot taxis.
I started reporting on the business of tech in 2016. Before joining The Times, I spent eight years at The Wall Street Journal, where I wrote about Apple, Google, bourbon and beer. I began my career as a sportswriter, covering the business of the Olympics for Sports Business Journal. I earned a bachelor’s degree in English literature at Wake Forest University and a master’s degree in journalism at Columbia University. I am the author of the book “After Steve,” which chronicled the tumultuous decade at Apple following the death of its founder Steve Jobs.
I was born and raised in Charlotte, N.C., where my mother taught fourth grade at a public elementary school and my father owned a small business. I have called New York, Atlanta and Tahoe City, Calif. home. Currently, I live in San Francisco.
As a Times journalist, I share the values and adhere to the standards of integrity outlined in The Times’s Ethical Journalism handbook. My No. 1 priority is delivering readers a fair, balanced and accurate article. I work hard to vet sources and verify information. I also prioritize honoring the commitments I make to protect sources, particularly on sensitive stories. I do not own or trade individual stocks, and I save for retirement by investing in index and target funds. I once had a sports journalism professor who started class by passing out brown lunch bags. His message was: Don’t eat the free food in the press box. I honor that spirit by not accepting gifts, money or favors.
