Stockchase Opinions

Brendan Caldwell Apple Inc AAPL-Q HOLD Sep 22, 2025

He owns a number of the bigger companies but not Apple even though he feels pretty sure it will continue to be a dominant player in the cell phone space. However technologies do change. He prefers Amazon and Microsoft in the mega cap space since they should do a little better in the long term.

BUY

Dumping a high-growth tech stock then planning to buy back at a lower price is a lot harder than you think. Apple is a classic example. Shares fell this year, because Apple lacks an AI strategy. Selling the best-selling iPhone stock to buy it back later is a mug's game.

Apple EBITDA for the last quarter was $28 billion, which represents a significant decrease of 13.08% compared to the previous quarter. While this is concerning, it is only a slight 0.61% decrease compared to the same quarter last year, which could suggest some stability over a more extended period.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jun 17/25, Up 20.2%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

Our PAST TOP PICK with AAPL has achieved its target at $236.  To remain disciplined, we recommend covering half the position at this time and trailing up the stop (from $175) to $195.  

BUY

On Tuesday, they roll out the iPhone 17 and he likes what he's hearing about them. But Wall Street doesn't seem to care. Own it, don't trade it. Is up only 7.78% the past year, trailing the S&P, but doesn't bother him. Is up 41% since the April low, back in the good graces of Trump. Apple sales are growing again. Remains a huge position of his.

DON'T BUY

Though a great company, the single-digit growth doesn't justify a mid-30s PE.

BUY

Shares are down after the latest iPhone announcement. Historically, though, shares rise 13% on aaverage immediately after the previous 5 iPhone roll-outs.

BUY

Those who say trade it, don't own it, got blown out today as Apple rallied 4.31%. The new iPhone launch, including China, is doing well. Don't get fooled by the market naysayers. Own it, don't trade it.

TOP PICK

Apple reported a revenue of 94B, which is a -1.4% change from the previous quarter. An increase in revenue typically indicates growing demand for the company's products or services. A decline in revenue can be concerning, as it might indicate reduced sales or challenges in the market. It's important to investigate further to understand the underlying causes. Social media mentions are up 36.2% in the past 24h.
