Should You Buy Apple Stock Now or Wait for a Dip?
The tech stock has recently hit a new all-time high.
Apple (AAPL) remains a top performer on U.S. stock markets, having climbed 26% year-to-date despite lagging in artificial intelligence (AI) development. With a market cap of $5 trillion, it trails only Nvidia, valued at around $5.3 trillion. Apple's success is notable considering its modest AI efforts and slow rollout of advanced features for its iPhones.
Despite its high valuation, at 40 times trailing earnings, investors are debating whether to buy now or wait for a price dip. The upcoming earnings report, featuring new CEO John Ternus, will be crucial in determining Apple's growth prospects and resilience to economic conditions. If demand for the iPhone 18 and foldable iPhone Duo doesn't meet expectations, Apple's stock could experience a correction.
