This summary was created by AI, based on 85 opinions in the last 12 months.

Apple Inc. (AAPL) continues to face a mixed outlook from experts. While many recognize the company's strong brand, high margins, and impressive free cash flow, there are significant concerns over its current valuation and its lagging position in the rapidly evolving AI landscape. The stock is seen as resilient, but analysts are divided on whether it's a prudent investment at its current price point, considering its high P/E ratio and single-digit growth projections. Some experts suggest that Apple has effectively avoided the frantic spending typical in the AI sector, leveraging partnerships instead, which may safeguard its margins. Yet, others express skepticism about its lack of a concrete AI strategy and its ability to produce substantial growth, indicating that those looking for immediate gains may prefer to wait for a pullback or reconsider their positions entirely.

Price target of $164. Over the fall, you may find some chances to add to your position. Facing headwinds in the Apple store take rate. Must prove SaaS is growing to justify the rich valuation. Looking at growth and price earnings, PE ratio of 28x isn't concerning. But the PEG ratio is, as it's surged to 5.51. He's thinking of writing calls on it.

He's excited by Apple's role in healthcare, but it won't move the needle. It's at new highs today and picking up momentum. Services won't move it further, but the old-fashioned iPhone will.

Optimistic about the company. Makes sense given the new product launches and the increasing penetration of services within their business. It hit a peak last August. Then, it consolidated while continuing to grow earnings. Bought in during this consolidation. Expects it will do well. Should be a core holding.

Has underperformed the broader S&P 500 index since last fall. Great balance sheet, but perhaps not enough EPS growth at 9%. You want to see strong revenue growth, and looking back 5 years, AAPL's is only about 4%. High margins let it do well. Is this sustainable? AAPL is fine, but he'd prefer FB, GOOG, MSFT, or AMZN, which all have higher revenue growth.

All the new models of phones on the market will support 5G, including Apple's, and there will be lots of phone upgrades. He hopes Apple breaks out the lifetime value of their customers this quarter, thanks to this sticky revenue stream.

He has owned it for 8 or 9 years and always thought he was too late to buy it. It has done nothing in the last year or so. Recently it spiked as they announced ramping up the number of phones they can produce in China. Profit margins are obscene and they are gushing free cash and buying back stock. Continue to buy on pull backs.

Survives quite well in a lower interest rate environment, with its strong organic growth. Doesn't think the drawdown in yields will last. In general, tech will struggle if rates go higher. Cash generation remains dominant. Hold it, don't sell.

COMMENT

Apple Inc(AAPL)

Jul 02, 2021
Yes, there's room to run with Apple, but it isn't a cheap stock. Earnings come at the end of this month, and Apple tends to run up 1.5-2% before earnings. If you're doing a short-term trade, but cautious. She's not sure if we'll see record earnings in Q2 as we did in Q1, but assumes earnings will still be strong. It's a great stock over time. In general, she's a long-term investor in stocks with long growth potential, so you don't need to worry about volatility.

He prefers FB, NFLX, MSFT and GOOG. It will do fine. A good company, but their growth is based on margins they can charge on their products. 5-year earnings growth is 8-9%, but revenue growth is around 4%, and this is less than other FANG names.

Used to own it. Their devices, like the iPhone, are interwoven into our lives. They have growth for the very long term as they keep launching new products. Pays a low dividend. He foresees so-so returns in the future, but they are a fine company and are very well run. He has no problems with anyone owning this already.
