In plain English, this means that AAPL shares are likely to be swayed by macro-level factors like economic activity, inflation, interest rates, etc.</p>\n<p>Apple’s next move, higher lower, may very well be associated with the hottest topics in the market today, particularly monetary policy.

The Apple Maven presents the catalysts that will most likely nudge AAPL higher or lower in the next several weeks.\n\nApple stock (AAPL) -Get Report continues to stand out amid an equities market that has just started to wobble. Shares of the Cupertino company have not had an easy 2021 so far, butJune has been a much better month: gains of nearly 5% against a slight decline in the S&P 500.\nToday, the Apple Maven looks at potential catalysts that may determine the direction of AAPL share price in the foreseeable future – say, the next few weeks or months.\n\nMacroeconomic catalysts\nOver the past decade, Apple stock has been correlated with the broad market at a factor of nearly 0.6 out of a maximum of 1. In plain English, this means that AAPL shares are likely to be swayed by macro-level factors like economic activity, inflation, interest rates, etc.\nApple’s next move, higher lower, may very well be associated with the hottest topics in the market today, particularly monetary policy. The S&P 500 felt the heat of the Federal Reserve’s suggestion thatshort-term interest rates will likely climbin 2023, ahead of previous expectations.\nThe next catalyst for Apple, therefore, might be data on inflation over the next months. Should it come in too hot, interest rate expectations will likely rise, pressuring AAPL. Should it be tame instead, Apple will likely benefit from low yields and, possibly, a flock to quality amid doubts over the recovery.\nCompany-specific catalysts\nApple-specific factors could also impact how shares behave. On the potentially bearish side, the company isone of the targets of antitrust scrutiny. Should Congress move fast on the proposed legislation to curb the power of Big Tech, Apple stock could take a hit.\nOn the bullish end, summer has historically been a good season for Apple stock (see below). The Apple Maven believes that there is more to the story than just coincidence.\nJuly and August are likely the months during which investors begin to anticipate two crucial dates for Apple: (1) the launch of the next iPhone and (2) the holiday shopping season. It has become common for the stock to benefit from the year-end chatter before sell-the-news pressures take over in Q4.\nLastly, fiscal third quarter earnings day is just around the corner. Apple should be releasing its results near the end of July, if not early August. Ever sinceApple’s blowout report in April, Wall Street has been dialing up its expectations for the next period: EPS of $1.00 now vs. $0.81 in March.\nIt is hard to tell whether earnings season will be a positive or a negative for Apple stock. It all boils down to expectations: can the company follow through on impressive late-pandemic results, or will the reopening of the economy spell trouble for the 5G cycle, Mac and iPad momentum and service sales?\nTwitter speaks\nThe Apple Maven recently asked Twitter for an opinion on what could be the next catalyst for Apple shares.

Saudi Aramco eclipsed that threshold briefly in December 2019, but currently has a market value of about $1.9 trillion.</p>\n<p>Since taking the reins in 2014, Chief Executive Officer Satya Nadella has reshaped the Redmond, Washington-based company into the largest seller of cloud-computing software, counting both its infrastructure and Office application cloud units. Microsoft is also the only <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the biggest U.S. technology companies that has so far evaded the recent wave of scrutiny from increasingly active American antitrust regulators, giving it a freer hand in both acquisitions and product expansion.</p>\n<p>Microsoft has gained 19% so far this year, outperforming Apple and Amazon.com Inc., as investors piled into the stock on expectations of long-term growth for both earnings and revenue, and expansion in areas like machine learning and cloud computing. The company’s third-quarter results, released in late April, topped expectations and demonstrated strong growth across its business segments.</p>\n<p>The tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 Index outperformed the S&amp;P 500 Index on Tuesday after Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell reiterated his view that inflation will be short lived. Both benchmarks rose to session highs after Powell’s comments with the Nasdaq 100 up 1.1% and the S&amp;P 500 up 0.7%.</p>\n<p>Microsoft “has its hands in a lot and it is doing it all well: gaming, cloud, automation, analytics, AI,” said Hilary Frisch, senior research analyst at Clearbridge Investments. “It is an attractively valued name within tech, and it should benefit from both the economy reopening as well as from a more pronounced shift toward the cloud.”</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a280fce51eba99be2831914a36829047\" tg-width=\"930\" tg-height=\"523\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Co-founded in 1975 by Bill Gates and Paul Allen, Microsoft created the personal-computer software industry and dominated the market for PC operating systems and Office software for years. As internet browsers like Netscape grew in importance in the 1990s, Microsoft raced to introduce its own product that it bundled with Windows software. That led to a bruising antitrust lawsuit, filed in 1998 by the U.S. government, with a federal judge finding the company guilty in 2000.</p>\n<p>Though Microsoft avoided a breakup of its business, the penalty the government originally sought in the antitrust case, the next decade saw the software maker largely miss the advent of mobile software, social media and internet search, falling behind newer rivals such as Google and nimbler ones like Apple. With a series of strategic shifts, in the past seven years Nadella has restored Microsoft to the vanguard of technology with a focus on cloud, mobile computing and artificial intelligence.</p>\n<p>While it took Microsoft 33 years from its IPO to reach its first $1 trillion in value in 2019, the next trillion only took about two years amid a surge in popularity in tech stocks before the Covid-19 pandemic and during the health crisis. Apple made Wall Street history when it reached $2 trillion last year.</p>\n<p>Among U.S. names, the pair are trailed by Amazon, which has a market cap of nearly $1.8 trillion, and Alphabet Inc., which is valued around $1.6 trillion.</p>\n<p>According to data compiled by Bloomberg, more than 90% of analysts recommend buying Microsoft, while none has the equivalent of a sell rating on the stock. The average price target points to upside of about 11% from current levels.</p>\n<p>Growth Drivers</p>\n<p>Microsoft’s cloud-computing business has been a central force behind the advance. According to data compiled by Bloomberg, the Intelligent Cloud business accounted for 33.8% of Microsoft’s 2020 revenue, making it the largest of the three major segments for the first time, and up from 31% in 2019. The division showed revenue growth of 24% last year, compared with the 13% growth in Productivity and Business Processes, and the 6% growth of Microsoft’s More Personal Computing unit.</p>\n<p>Nadella’s strategic moves had put Microsoft in a position to benefit from business trends that arose during the global pandemic. Lockdowns and remote work accelerated a shift to the company’s meeting software and pushed clients to speed up modernizations of software networks and applications around the cloud. The software maker’s Xbox gaming subscriptions also lured users looking for diversion during months stuck at home.</p>\n<p>As workers return to the office, Microsoft has tried to push new ideas for managing meetings where some attendees are in person and some remote, and has been hawking features to boost wellness and productivity for workers that the company says are burned out by the tribulations of the past year.</p>\n<p>“At a high level, the two core pillars of Microsoft’s bull narrative — Microsoft 365 and Azure — are well understood by the investment community,” William Blair analyst Jason Ader wrote in May. “What is perhaps less appreciated is how over the last 15 years Microsoft has expanded its IT wallet share through expanding into new product areas” and taking market share.

Saudi Aramco eclipsed that threshold briefly in December 2019, but currently has a market value of about $1.9 trillion.\nSince taking the reins in 2014, Chief Executive Officer Satya Nadella has reshaped the Redmond, Washington-based company into the largest seller of cloud-computing software, counting both its infrastructure and Office application cloud units. Microsoft is also the only one of the biggest U.S. technology companies that has so far evaded the recent wave of scrutiny from increasingly active American antitrust regulators, giving it a freer hand in both acquisitions and product expansion.\nMicrosoft has gained 19% so far this year, outperforming Apple and Amazon.com Inc., as investors piled into the stock on expectations of long-term growth for both earnings and revenue, and expansion in areas like machine learning and cloud computing. The company’s third-quarter results, released in late April, topped expectations and demonstrated strong growth across its business segments.\nThe tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 Index outperformed the S&P 500 Index on Tuesday after Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell reiterated his view that inflation will be short lived. Both benchmarks rose to session highs after Powell’s comments with the Nasdaq 100 up 1.1% and the S&P 500 up 0.7%.\nMicrosoft “has its hands in a lot and it is doing it all well: gaming, cloud, automation, analytics, AI,” said Hilary Frisch, senior research analyst at Clearbridge Investments. “It is an attractively valued name within tech, and it should benefit from both the economy reopening as well as from a more pronounced shift toward the cloud.”\n\nCo-founded in 1975 by Bill Gates and Paul Allen, Microsoft created the personal-computer software industry and dominated the market for PC operating systems and Office software for years. As internet browsers like Netscape grew in importance in the 1990s, Microsoft raced to introduce its own product that it bundled with Windows software. That led to a bruising antitrust lawsuit, filed in 1998 by the U.S. government, with a federal judge finding the company guilty in 2000.\nThough Microsoft avoided a breakup of its business, the penalty the government originally sought in the antitrust case, the next decade saw the software maker largely miss the advent of mobile software, social media and internet search, falling behind newer rivals such as Google and nimbler ones like Apple. With a series of strategic shifts, in the past seven years Nadella has restored Microsoft to the vanguard of technology with a focus on cloud, mobile computing and artificial intelligence.\nWhile it took Microsoft 33 years from its IPO to reach its first $1 trillion in value in 2019, the next trillion only took about two years amid a surge in popularity in tech stocks before the Covid-19 pandemic and during the health crisis. Apple made Wall Street history when it reached $2 trillion last year.\nAmong U.S. names, the pair are trailed by Amazon, which has a market cap of nearly $1.8 trillion, and Alphabet Inc., which is valued around $1.6 trillion.\nAccording to data compiled by Bloomberg, more than 90% of analysts recommend buying Microsoft, while none has the equivalent of a sell rating on the stock. The average price target points to upside of about 11% from current levels.\nGrowth Drivers\nMicrosoft’s cloud-computing business has been a central force behind the advance. According to data compiled by Bloomberg, the Intelligent Cloud business accounted for 33.8% of Microsoft’s 2020 revenue, making it the largest of the three major segments for the first time, and up from 31% in 2019. The division showed revenue growth of 24% last year, compared with the 13% growth in Productivity and Business Processes, and the 6% growth of Microsoft’s More Personal Computing unit.\nNadella’s strategic moves had put Microsoft in a position to benefit from business trends that arose during the global pandemic. Lockdowns and remote work accelerated a shift to the company’s meeting software and pushed clients to speed up modernizations of software networks and applications around the cloud. The software maker’s Xbox gaming subscriptions also lured users looking for diversion during months stuck at home.\nAs workers return to the office, Microsoft has tried to push new ideas for managing meetings where some attendees are in person and some remote, and has been hawking features to boost wellness and productivity for workers that the company says are burned out by the tribulations of the past year.\n“At a high level, the two core pillars of Microsoft’s bull narrative — Microsoft 365 and Azure — are well understood by the investment community,” William Blair analyst Jason Ader wrote in May. “What is perhaps less appreciated is how over the last 15 years Microsoft has expanded its IT wallet share through expanding into new product areas” and taking market share. The wallet share doubled from 2006 to 2020, and “we believe it can double again over the next decade,” it wrote.\nWall Street is also positive on the company’s M&A strategy. It recently announced that it is buying speech-recognition pioneer Nuance Communications Inc. The company also tried to acquire Discord Inc. for $12 billion, but the video-game chat company rejected Microsoft’s offer.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":384,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":167551724,"gmtCreate":1624279018468,"gmtModify":1703832238645,"author":{"id":"3553301952962799","authorId":"3553301952962799","name":"Jacobie","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5c199595c0e19f888fc71e9a08cb0c58","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3553301952962799","idStr":"3553301952962799"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good article","listText":"Good article","text":"Good article","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/167551724","repostId":"1128822693","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":561,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":165561915,"gmtCreate":1624151898837,"gmtModify":1703829446387,"author":{"id":"3553301952962799","authorId":"3553301952962799","name":"Jacobie","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5c199595c0e19f888fc71e9a08cb0c58","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3553301952962799","idStr":"3553301952962799"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Friday was bad with most of my stocks being down due to Fed speech on inflation and interest rates.&nbsp;Hope price will recover next week.&nbsp;","listText":"Friday was bad with most of my stocks being down due to Fed speech on inflation and interest rates.&nbsp;Hope price will recover next week.&nbsp;","text":"Friday was bad with most of my stocks being down due to Fed speech on inflation and interest rates.
