Apple iPhone 6

Apple iPhone 6: Upcoming launch would benefit supply chain News articles on Apple's upcoming flagship product, iPhone 6, are starting to sprout, as market watchers anticipate the 9 Sep launch for the very best (and biggest) since the iPhone 4. Despite a sell-off (-4%) in the tech giant yesterday, blamed on the recent iCloud hacking scandal, as well as the launch of Samsung's latest set of large screen smartphones, Apple had been in the midst of a rally since beating street estimates in its Jul quarter earnings release. We do not rule out that the positive sentiment could spill over to the SGX-listed tech counters with exposure to the Apple supply chain. The counters include Hi-P, Amtek Engineering, STATS ChipPAC, Epicentre, ECS and Karin Technology.
