Nov 3 (Reuters) - Apple shares on Friday pared losses that were driven by its forecast for a subdued holiday quarter after a U.S. jobs report bolstered hopes of a pause in interest rate hikes by the Federal Reserve. The iPhone maker on Thursday forecast sales for the holiday quarter, usually its biggest, below Wall Street estimates, blaming weak demand for iPads and wearables. An Apple iPhone 12 is pictured in a mobile phone store in Nantes, France, Sept. 13, 2023. "We view management's flat sales guidance as proof the company cannot rely on iPhone sales to drive shares higher, as it has in the past," D.A. "In mainland China, we set a quarterly record for the September quarter for iPhone," Cook told Reuters.
