Apple stock ticks higher after iPhone 17 helps Apple top 2025 shipments — what AAPL investors watch next

New York, Jan 12, 2026, 09:37 — Regular session Apple shares rose 0.1% to $259.37 in early trade on Monday after Counterpoint Research data showed the iPhone maker led global smartphone shipments in 2025, even as U.S. stocks opened lower. Apple held a 20% share, ahead of Samsung’s 19% and Xiaomi’s 13%, with Counterpoint analyst Varun Mishra pointing to “solid demand in emerging and mid-sized markets” and strong iPhone 17 sales. Counterpoint research director Tarun Pathak said the smartphone market could soften in 2026 as chip shortages and higher component costs bite, with chipmakers prioritising AI data centres over handsets.

  • BONK hit by $20M governance exploit while HMSTR and PEPE show split performance
    July 6, 2026, 5:08 PM EDT. BONK dropped 7.8% after a $20 million treasury exploit using a governance attack, raising issues around liquidity limits in the meme-coin trade. The coin had bounced over the weekend but now has a $384.5 million market cap and $108.3 million in daily volume. The hack puts stress on the ecosystem's balance sheet. HMSTR jumped 27.2% in the past 24 hours with volume running nearly four times its market cap, suggesting quick trading turnover and light capital base. PEPE holds a bigger $1.15 billion cap and 13.8% gain for the week but trades roughly 90% off its peak, showing more stable but slower market action. The moves show how liquidity and governance trouble meme coins in different ways.
