Apple Performance Highlight: Apple's stock has risen 20.5% over the past six months, outperforming the micro-computer industry at 19.5%, driven by strong growth in Services revenue and over 1 billion paid subscribers, with iPhone sales expected to grow in double digits, boosting overall revenue.
Walmart Market Performance: Walmart's stock increased by 25.7% in the last six months, surpassing the supermarket industry's 23.4%, with robust execution of its omnichannel model and e-commerce growth driving performance, while management's optimistic outlook for fiscal 2026 underscores confidence in sustained growth.

Overweight

Reason

JPMorgan raised the firm's price target on Apple to $315 from $305 and keeps an Overweight rating on the shares as part of a fiscal Q1 earnings report. Apple shares have underperformed the S&P 500 Index over last two months as positive data points around "robust" iPhone 17 demand have been overshadowed by margin concerns from the "unprecedented rise" in memory costs, the analyst tells investors in a research note. JPMorgan, however, sees positive set up for the shares heading into the earnings print. Apple is trading below the peak multiple that is typical for the shares heading into a key iPhone product cycle, contends the firm.

Reason

Jefferies lowered the firm's price target on Apple to $276.47 from $283.36 and keeps a Hold rating on the shares. Even though the firm has trimmed its service revenue forecasts, noting that Sensor Tower data shows App Store revenue grew only about 7% in the December-end quarter, which would mark the slowest in the last seven quarters, the analyst believes strong iPhone sales could likely drive a 3% beat in both revenue and EPS in the upcoming report.
