  • Apple Volume Surges Amid Memory Cost Concerns and QQQ Pressure
    June 28, 2026, 10:46 AM EDT. Apple Inc. shares surged 3.14% to $283.78 on heavy volume, trading 261.8 million shares-five times its 65-day average. Despite Friday's rebound, Apple lost nearly $209 billion in market value after a week-long 4.8% slide, driven by rising memory and storage costs impacting iPad and MacBook prices. Apple represents 6.8% of the Invesco QQQ Trust ETF, which fell 1.35% due to chip stock sell-offs, offsetting Apple's gains. The company is lobbying for U.S. approval to buy memory chips from a blacklisted Chinese firm to ease cost pressures. Analysts highlight risks from higher memory costs and potential iPhone price increases amid investor scrutiny on demand sustainability and profit margins.
