IPhone 6 launch leaves Apple’s shares unnoticed

One of the headline-grabbing stories released on Friday is the launch of iPhone 6 by Apple. With strong demand for the new iPhone models and long lines expected, the new iPhones now are available from wireless carriers and a variety of third-party retailers in addition to Apple's retail stores. However, the long-awaited gadget failed to impress Wall Street. Investors on the New York Stock Exchange were overwhelmed by the largest ever Alibaba’s IPO, so they neglected Apple Inc.
Vigorous sales of iPhone 6 clearly indicate that the manufacturer is likely to break a new sales record. However, it has not made an impact on Apple’s shares still holding flat. The hi-tech giant might succeed in sparking investors’ interest by the traditional press release about promising sales figures.
