Approved Apple (AAPL) Retailers Mixed Ahead of iPhone 5c, 5s Launch

September 19, 2013 3:46 PM
With the Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL) iPhone 5c and 5s lanching tomorrow, several retailers are seeing some upside today.

Best Buy (NYSE: BBY) and RadioShack (NYSE: RSH) are both up on the session, while Wal-mart (NYSE: WMT) and Target (NYSE: TGT) are modestly lower. The movement makes sense; more people will be lining up outside the former two rather than the latter two.

The iPhones will also be available at "Select Resellers" as well as Apple Stores. Verizon, Sprint, AT&T, and T-Mobile will all have the device on their networks at the start.

This will also be the first time that the iPhone launches in China, meaning double the potential customers for Apple and the iPhone.
