Investors will also look at Apple's future guidance to see if there's soft demand for the iPhone 7 ahead of the launch iPhone 8, which is expected to go on sale this fall. There will be questions around Apple's services business, its investment into Softbank Vision fund, iPhone demand in China, and its lawsuit against Qualcomm. Apple reports earnings at 4:30 E.T. on Tuesday. Business Insider will cover all the news as it happens live.
