Apple's stock price grew by double digits in 2016 despite reporting in October the company's first year-over-year annual sales decline since 2001 and a drop in the giant company's profits.

For its second fiscal quarter ended April 1, Apple reported sales of $52.90 billion, up 4.6 percent from $50.56 billion in last year's second quarter. Net income was $11.03 billion, up nearly 5 percent from $10.52 billion one year earlier.
