Wall Street Lifts Apple Price Targets After WWDC as Shares Slip on Rollout Limits

WWDC gave analysts a clearer route to monetize Siri and Apple Intelligence that led firms to raise valuations.

Overview

  • Analysts raised Apple price targets after WWDC, with Morgan Stanley moving its target to $360 from $330 and several firms including TD Cowen and Maxim lifting theirs.
  • Investors pushed the stock higher during the June 8 keynote but the shares fell back to the low $290s in the days after as traders digested the announcements.
  • Apple unveiled Siri AI and Apple Intelligence features that use on‑device models, screen and app context, and developer hooks to enable photo editing, Image Playground, and conversational controls.
  • Regulatory and geographic limits will delay full availability because Apple Intelligence will not launch in the European Union and faces delayed rollout in China, restricting near‑term reach.
  • Analysts say the bullish case rests on driving iPhone upgrades and more Services revenue from AI features, but they flag execution risks, demand for more agentic workflows, and the September iPhone event as key near‑term tests.
