Apple Stock (AAPL) Update for Dec. 26, 2025: Shares Hover Near $273 After the Bell as China iPhone Data, Apple Watch Legal Win, and 2026 AI Forecasts Take Center Stage

NEW YORK — Friday, Dec. 26, 2025 (4:32 p.m. ET). U.S. stocks just wrapped up a thin, post‑Christmas trading session with major indexes ending only slightly lower and still sitting near record territory. Reuters For Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL), the day’s story is a familiar late‑year mix: low liquidity, headline‑driven swings, and investors trying to handicap 2026 catalysts—especially AI features, China demand signals, and legal/regulatory risks. In late after‑hours trading, Apple shares were around $273.40, down about 0.16% from the prior close, with the stock still carrying a market cap of roughly $3.0 trillion and a trailing P/E near 30.

AI Bubble Fears Meet Record Highs: S&P 500 Near 7,000 as Big Tech’s AI Spending Surge Dominates December 26, 2025

Wall Street is closing out 2025 at record levels—and doing it while a louder debate simmers about whether artificial intelligence is building a durable foundation for the next decade of growth, or inflating the kind of expectations that tend to end in painful repricing. On Friday, December 26, U.S. equities returned from the Christmas break in thin trading conditions with investors watching two things at once: whether the year-end “Santa Claus rally” has enough momentum to push benchmarks to fresh milestones, and whether the AI trade that powered much of the market’s gains can keep delivering without buckling under the
