Apple Gaining Momentum on JPMorgan Boost
Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL | AAPL Price Prediction) is up about $3 a share in premarket. All after JPMorgan boosted its price target ahead of earnings, thanks to iPhone demand. The firm reiterated its overweight rating on Apple. It also raised its price target to $315 from $305 ahead of Apple’s first-quarter earnings report on Thursday.
“We see a positive set up for the shares heading into F1Q26 (Dec-end) earnings print as AAPL shares are trading at 30x NTM P/E, below the peak multiple that is typical for the shares heading into a key iPhone product cycle (previous peak of ~32x into 5G cycle), in combination with the modest upsides in relation to both F1Q26 print and the F2Q26 outlook,” added the firm, as quoted by CNBC.

This morning, USAR is up about 22%, or by about $5.50 to $30.24, on news the Trump Administration took an equity stake. In fact, it’s expected to provide USAR with a loan of about $1.3 billion and $277 million in federal funding.
