A wave of price-target increases is underpinning the record run at Apple Inc. (AAPL). Citi lifted its target to $365, JPMorgan to $345, and Morgan Stanley to $360, each citing improving Services revenue, AI monetization, and resilient iPhone demand — on top of HSBC's Street-high $366.
Common Thread
The revisions share a thread: confidence that Apple's AI strategy — from the China approval to a revamped Siri — will drive upgrades and higher-margin recurring revenue. Citi cited record smartphone share near 25% and 48%-49% gross-margin guidance.
A Tension
Yet clustering targets in the $345-$366 range highlights a tension: with the stock near $334, even bullish targets imply modest upside, leaving July 30 earnings as the decider.
