Apple stock up 28% in 2026, matching tech sector gains, driven by strong iPhone Duo demand.

Apple's stock has risen 28% this year, matching the overall technology sector and outperforming rivals Microsoft and Alphabet. This surge is largely fueled by strong early demand for the new iPhone Duo, which has also boosted Apple's growing services revenue. Investors now face the decision to either take profits at record highs or hold on, betting on continued holiday-quarter strength. Apple's upcoming holiday sales results will be key to determining if this momentum can sustain.

Apple Inc trades at USD 346.47 on Pluang as of Oct 24, 2026 01:41 WIB, near its 52-week high of USD 348.22. Despite the news of a 28% rise this year, Apple’s stock fell 0.50% in the last day on Pluang. Most Pluang users are selling Apple shares, with 83% of order activity in sell mode at this time.
