The turbulent period in the US markets has also affected confidence in Apple. Analysts have pointed out that the company’s shares may be expensive compared to its competitors. Views on Apple’s safe haven potential from previous years have begun to change. It was noted that the uncertainties in global trade, mutual tariff applications between the US and China, and unsuccessful attempts in artificial intelligence have been effective in this situation. Analysts indicated that despite the slowdown in Apple’s revenue growth, it is trading at a higher premium than rival technology companies. An analysis on Bloomberg suggested that Apple’s shares are overpriced and there is no catalyst for growth. However, it is mentioned that the company’s future could be more positive compared to Tesla. Apple shares have fallen by 13% since the beginning of the year. It was stated that in the last year, the shares were up by 27%. In particular, it was highlighted that the 20% tariff imposed by Trump on China would negatively affect the company’s production. It was calculated that if the additional tariff continues throughout the year, Apple’s sales could face a 1-2% blow.
