Goldman Sachs analyst James Schneider initiated coverage of SiTime (SITM) with a Buy rating and $420 price target. SiTime is viewed as the leading provider of silicon-based precision timing solutions and the only scaled pure-play MEMS timing company positioned to benefit from the industry shift away from quartz, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Growth is expected to be driven by this transition, expanding opportunities at Apple (AAPL), and AI datacenter tailwinds, with consensus estimates underestimating earnings potential, as 2026-2027 EPS is projected to be about 20% above Street expectations, the firm adds.

Apple's upcoming Siri 2.0 powered by Gemini (GOOGL), with a strategic launch planned for March 2026, is set to act as a catalyst for potential upside in both profits and valuation, the analyst tells investors. The firm, which expects Siri 2.0 to debut in March ahead of the anticipated WWDC, sees the remade assistant "potentially reshaping Apple's AI narrative," the analyst added.

Wedbush analyst Daniel Ives raised the firm's price target on Apple to $350 from $320 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares. The firm cites its view that 2026 is going to finally be the year that Apple actually enters the AI Revolution. Wedbush also believes iPhone 17 sales have been trending well into year-end including in the China region as Apple continues to execute above Street growth expectations for the December quarter with a healthy holiday season ahead. The firm thinks the AI monetization piece could add $75 to $100 per share to the Apple story over the coming few years as it finally plays out after a head scratching AI strategy this year in Apple Park. It also believes Tim Cook will remain CEO of Apple through at least the end of 2027 to see Apple through this key AI technology transition in Cupertino.
