Apple Inc (NASDAQ: AAPL) is on course to end 2023 at an all-time high but a senior Wedbush Securities analyst is convinced that the coming year will be another strong one for the iPhone maker.
Apple stock has upside to $250Dan Ives reiterated his “outperform” rating on the tech titan in a research note this morning and said its shares could climb to $250 which suggests a 27% upside from here.
The analyst is bullish on Apple stock primarily because he’s convinced that the multinational is headed for a strong holiday season.
While there are lingering worries around iPhone shadow government bans in China, for now, this issue is very containable and has not dented demand for Cupertino in this key region.
