...that there's a strong possibility China-related issues have already been factored into Apple's stock price. For instance, analysts such as those from Needham have voiced worries about potential tariff implications and their impact on Apple's fiscal 2025 EPS[1].
To add to the complexity, the general consensus among analysts is that Apple's stock could climb, but factors like soft iPhone sales and regulatory issues might dampen the expected growth[2][3].
Yet, despite these challenges, Apple still manages to secure a "buy" recommendation from many analysts. This backing stems from growing expectations for Apple's Services revenue and optimism surrounding the company's broader ecosystem[1][2].
So, in the words of "The Techie," Apple might be showing a rosy picture, but it's gotta go to make room for greener pastures.
Investing in technology might be a better option than relying on Apple Inc.'s stock, given analysts' concerns about China-related issues and the potential impact on Apple's growth, such as soft iPhone sales and regulatory issues. Exploring new opportunities in the finance sector could lead to more profitable investments as Apple's Services revenue and broader ecosystem growth are met with optimism.
