AAPL price action today (7 Nov 2025)

Apple’s last trade printed $268.47 (‑0.46% vs. Thursday), with an intraday low of $266.85 and high of $272.24. The previous close was $269.77.

On a longer look, Apple’s 52‑week range sits around $169.21–$277.32, and its market capitalization is about $4.0 trillion, according to Reuters’ Apple page. [6]


What moved Apple stock on Nov. 6–7

1) Services hiccup: Apple TV outage resolved
Late Thursday, Apple TV saw a spike in outage reports (~15,000 at peak per Downdetector), with services restored soon after; Apple Music and Arcade also briefly had issues. Service continuity matters for Apple’s high‑margin Services segment, though the disruption was short‑lived. [7]

2) AI momentum: Gemini‑for‑Siri reporting picked up
Coverage on Nov. 6 reiterated Bloomberg’s scoop that Apple is nearing a ~$1B/year arrangement with Google to use a custom Gemini model to power a more capable Siri—while Apple continues developing its own models. Investors read this as both a near‑term AI feature boost and a sign Apple won’t wait for only in‑house models to scale. [8]

3) Europe watch: policy friction and product tweaks
Apple sent a letter criticizing what it called contradictory enforcement between the EU’s Digital Services Act (DSA) and Digital Markets Act (DMA). In parallel, a separate report said Apple will remove automatic iPhone→Apple Watch Wi‑Fi password sync in the EU with iOS 26.2 to meet DMA interoperability requirements—another example of how regulation is shaping user features and could influence regional upgrade behavior. [9]

4) Macro tape: Tech dragged markets Thursday
Into Friday’s session, sentiment was still digesting Thursday’s decline across major U.S. indices, as investors fretted over stretched tech valuations and mixed macro signals—pressure that often amplifies moves in megacaps like Apple. [10]


Other Apple headlines (Nov. 6–7) to know

  • AirTag four‑pack briefly at $29 (pricing error) — The U.S. Apple Store briefly showed an unusually low $29 price for a 4‑pack; Apple reverted it and canceled many orders, per MacRumors’ updates. Not material to fundamentals, but it drove social chatter on Friday. [11]
  • Trade‑in value adjustments — Apple updated U.S. trade‑in values for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch on Nov. 6; most values were flat to lower, with iPad Air seeing a small bump. [12]

How the Siri–Gemini story could matter for AAPL

If finalized, a Gemini integration would likely accelerate perceived AI utility across iPhone, iPad, and Mac—potentially supporting upgrade cycles and adding reasons to engage with Apple’s services. The near‑term trade‑off is reliance on a third‑party model while Apple scales its own. Bloomberg‑linked reporting suggests timing “by next spring” for major Siri upgrades, a potential 2026 catalyst to watch. [13]


What to watch next

  • Official confirmation/terms of any Google Gemini integration, including privacy boundaries (on‑device vs. cloud tasks) and regional availability. [14]
  • EU compliance steps as DMA/DSA enforcement evolves and how feature changes (like Wi‑Fi sync removal) affect user sentiment in Europe. [15]
  • Holiday demand signals across iPhone 17, Watch, and services amid Thursday’s tech‑led market pullback. [16]

  • CoreWeave: AI infrastructure darling or debt-fueled bubble on Wall Street
    November 8, 2025, 10:54 AM EST. CoreWeave, a major provider of AI infrastructure power, has become a stock-market darling as its data-centre network expands to serve giants like Microsoft and OpenAI. Yet the company sits atop a mountain of debt and mounting lease obligations that threaten near-term cash flow. With about $11 billion of debt and $1.9 billion in 2024 revenue, 2025 guidance hinges on jumbo capex (expected at $20-$23 billion) and long-term leases totaling roughly $34 billion through 2028. The balance sheet also shows current liabilities of $7.6 billion, raising the risk that unprofitable customers or construction delays could trigger cancellations or prepayments. In essence, CoreWeave's earnings trajectory and leverage may be a bellwether for the AI-infrastructure boom and its funding needs.
