Apple stock rose 0.6% to end Wednesday at $189.25, putting Apple's market value at $2.98 trillion. It was the second straight record high close for Apple's shares.

Apple’s stock has been on a roll, surging nearly 46% in 2023. Investors have bought up shares of the company along with other tech companies amid excitement around the future of artificial intelligence. Traders also have been buying up the stock following new product announcements, including the highly anticipated Vision Pro headset.

“This product and application build out could be another tailwind to Services revenue in FY25 as more consumers start to make the path down the mixed reality headset with Apple as Vision Pro price points start to come down markedly in FY25,” Wedbush analyst and long-time Apple bull, Dan Ives, wrote in a research note Wednesday. He rates Apple stock at Outperform with a $220 price target.

Ives believes Apple’s annual services revenue, which includes the App Store and Apple Music, can hit $100 billion in fiscal 2024. Services revenue in 2022 was $78.1 billion.

“Herein lies the key to the valuation rerating that we believe will continue to take place around Apple’s stock as the Street further appreciates the sheer massive potential of this services revenue,” Ives said. “… We believe Apple’s fair valuation
could be in the $3.5 trillion range with a bull case $4 trillion valuation by FY25.”

    Apple..I paid 6 thousand dollars  for a Mac 4 years ago and it didn't even come with an adapter so I could use it to charge my IPhone. Paid 160 AU dollars 60 minutes later for one from same store and never bought another product since..Not getting one cent from me until Titan ..Apple products are designed to force you to buy more products..let's hope Titan comes with a steering wheel..
