Doing well in Australia and New Zealand too. Aside from Taco the only big headwind is memory.
You are missing the point I made. Point isn't whether Apple is doing well or not. It is about creating an alternative for a future when Apple won't exist in the Country because of US sanctions.
Here issue is not of whether Apple is reliable or not. Issue is unreliability of USA. If US Government decides Apple Store should be banned in Country X, Apple cannot do anything about it but abide by the decree.
