Thursday's Biggest Analyst Calls: Nvidia, Apple, Netflix
Evercore ISI reiterated an outperform rating on Apple and raised its 12-month price target to $365 from $330, an 11% increase that the firm says implies roughly 22% upside from the prior close. Analyst Amit Daryanani argued Apple has overcome near-term memory chip constraints and that its services ecosystem (Apple Music, Apple TV+, iCloud, Apple Pay) plus upcoming high-end iPhones — including a planned foldable model — should sustain revenue and margin expansion. Evercore also cited potential monetization opportunities from an Apple Intelligence AI launch this fall that could create asymmetric upside without hyperscaler-level capex. The note aligns with broader Wall Street sentiment: LSEG data shows 33 of 48 analysts rate Apple a buy or strong buy. The stock has recently traded strongly, rising about 15.5% over the past month.
