  • JP Morgan Raises Apple Price Target to $315 on iPhone 18 Optimism Ahead of Q1 2026 Earnings
    January 26, 2026, 8:13 AM EST. JP Morgan raised Apple's one-year stock price target to $315, citing high confidence in the upcoming iPhone 18 product cycle and stronger earnings. The bank expects Q1 2026 revenue of $139.8 billion, above consensus, driven by iPhone sales growth of 16% year-over-year to $80.2 billion. Services revenue growth is seen as slower but stable at $29.9 billion. Gross margins are forecasted near 47.6%, with operating expenses lower than expected at $17.5 billion, partly due to timing differences in fees for AI model access. JP Morgan expects continued momentum into Q2 2026, forecasting 10-12% revenue growth and services revenue surpassing $30 billion.
