Business and finance news from the Asia-Pacific.

Apple Inc. delivered record quarterly sales and a better-than-anticipated forecast for the current period, even as the company warned that rising component costs are threatening to squeeze margins. Revenue will rise 13% to 16% in the second quarter, exceeding the 10% projected by Wall Street, driven by strong demand for the new iPhone 17, growth in services and a rebound in China.

President Donald Trump said he would be announcing his pick for a nominee to chair the Federal Reserve on Friday morning, signaling an end to a months-long process that has spurred speculation over the future of the world's most powerful central bank. Trump, asked at an event Thursday evening in Washington when he would make his decision known, responded: "Tomorrow morning." Dollar Industries declined today. But there was a lot of volatility in the foreign exchange. For a closer look, we spoke to David Finnerty, Bloomberg's Rates/FX Strategist.

Asia technology shares are performing better then their US Counterparts. Apple's results drove the positive sentiment across the APAC along with a flurry of earnings out of South Korea this past week. For more perspective on the AI trade, we heard from Herald van der Linde, Head of Asia Pacific Equity Strategy at HSBC. He spoke to Bloomberg's Annabelle Droulers and David Ingles.

Apple Record Earnings, Traders Weigh Big Tech, Fed Chair Pick Countdown

A busy day for tech earnings across Asia and the U.S. Samsung's chip business posted a sharp profit jump on strong AI demand and announced a major buyback, while SK Hynix delivered its best quarter on record. In the U.S., Microsoft shares slipped as cloud growth slowed despite record AI spending, Meta's strong ad business is funding big investments in artificial intelligence, and Tesla beat profit expectations while unveiling plans to invest $2 billion in Elon Musk's AI company, xAI. We break down the results with Daniel Newman, CEO of the Futurum Group.

And -  Jerome Powell has two more opportunities to adjust interest rates before his term as Federal Reserve chair ends — and he may not need them. After the Fed kept borrowing costs on hold Wednesday, Powell talked up a "clear improvement" in the US outlook and said the job market shows signs of steadying. It signals a cautious optimism: Fed officials delivered three cuts last fall, and see nothing in the latest data to suggest more are needed to prop up the economy. For more on the outlook, we heard from Jeanette Garretty, Principal and Managing Director at Robertson Stephens. She spoke to Bloomberg's Shery Ahn and Avril Hong on the Asia Trade.
