Event summary
Morgan Stanley believes Apple's WWDC 2026 will be a crucial event for its stock, potentially re-establishing the company as an AI leader and driving significant valuation increases to $365-$385, with an upside to $440. Currently, investor expectations for Apple's AI capabilities are low, creating a favorable opportunity for a narrative re-rating if Apple presents a strong AI platform and vision. Bank of America also sees Apple as an "agentic AI" winner, forecasting up to $30 billion in AI-related revenue by 2030, while Bloomberg reports Apple plans to announce a bill-splitting service and aims to launch smart glasses in late 2027.
