In the year to date, the iPhone maker’s share price has fallen by more than 8 per cent, and about €300 billion has been wiped off its market value. Apple has ceded to Microsoft its status as the most valuable US company.

On this week’s Inside Business podcast, Ciarán Hancock gets a range of perspectives on the issues affecting Apple and its future prospects.
