Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL)’s stock continues to surge after the company outlined its AI strategy, called Apple Intelligence, at its Worldwide Developers Conference on Monday.
On the stock market today, Apple stock rose 2.9% to close at $213.07. Earlier in the session, it notched an all-time high of $220.20.
Artificial intelligence capabilities will drive a major upgrade cycle for Apple's iPhone business, two Wall Street analysts said Wednesday. Apple stock spiked to a record high on the news.
"AI functionality is likely to drive a multiyear upgrade cycle" for iPhones, BofA Securities analyst Wamsi Mohan said in a client note. He added that Wall Street's current consensus estimates for iPhone sales are too low for the next two years.
Wedbush Securities analyst Daniel Ives concurred. He said Apple's AI push "will catalyze a long-awaited super cycle" for iPhone sales.
Ives estimates that 270 million iPhones out of the 1.5 billion worldwide installed base have not been upgraded in more than four years.
With the move higher, Apple overtook Microsoft as the world's most valuable company for much of the day. Apple now has a market capitalization of $3.27 trillion vs. $3.28 trillion for Microsoft.
