Apple Inc. reported strong Q3 results with growth in iPhone, Mac, and services, alongside record gross margins. Despite these solid fundamentals and shareholder returns, the stock's valuation is high, trading at a forward P/E of 38x compared to its 5-year average of 29x. Shareholder yield remains low at around 2%, even with aggressive buybacks and dividends, limiting upside potential compared to risk-free investments. Due to the unattractive risk/reward balance and thin margin of safety at current premium multiples, the analyst has downgraded Apple stock to Sell.
