An analyst rates Apple as a Buy with a price target of $414, citing growth in services, the upcoming iPhone 18 and foldable models, AI monetization, and expansion in Mac and iPad sales. Despite a high valuation at nearly 37 times forward earnings, the analyst believes Apple's average historical P/E supports the target price.
