Apple's stock has risen over 20% since late March, boosted by strong iPhone sales and positive analyst upgrades. Evercore ISI and Tigress Financial raised their 12-month price targets to $365 and $375 respectively, citing potential earnings growth. However, some caution remains with a 'Hold' rating from KeyBanc and concerns over Apple’s AI partnership with OpenAI, which may impact future performance. Overall, Apple holds a 'Moderate Buy' consensus with a $318.75 average price target for the next year.
