Bank of America upgraded Apple stock with a 'Buy' rating and raised the price target to $325, expecting a 25% gain from the current $259 price. The upgrade is driven by strong iPhone demand, with March quarter sales forecasted at 60 million units, and overall revenue growth projected at 18% year-over-year. Apple leads the global smartphone market with a 21% share in Q1 2026, supported by strong iPhone 17 sales and improved supply chains. Upcoming catalysts include a developer conference, potential foldable iPhone launch, and enhanced AI features, despite some margin pressure and slower App Store growth. Wall Street consensus remains bullish with an average price target of $305.10 and a majority of analysts recommending buy or hold.
