Foxconn Electronics (Hon Hai Precision Industry) will stop production of the iPhone 5c at its factory in Zhengzhou, northern China, and shift the capacity to iPhone 5s, according to industry sources.

While Digitimes is considered a semi-reliable source for information at best, their report does align with others that have suggested Apple is cutting back on iPhone 5c production, and reassigning those resources to production of the high-end iPhone 5s.
