Geopolitical tensions aren’t the only problem Apple faces in China, its biggest market after the US. — Bloomberg

The trade war is taking its toll on Apple Inc, a new survey of Chinese consumer attitudes shows.

The company tumbled to No 24 in an annual report on China’s top brands, falling from No 11 a year ago. In 2017, before the trade war started, Apple was fifth in this ranking. Meanwhile, Apple’s biggest local rival, Huawei Technologies Co, climbed two spots and came in second, behind only Chinese payment service Alipay.
