- CNBC’s Jim Cramer says Apple is getting a “free ride” in AI through its deal for Google‘s Gemini technology.
- Market predictions and technical delays are putting pressure on AAPL stock, with fears of a decline to $240.
- A cryptic announcement from CEO Tim Cook next week has sparked investor interest amidst the uncertainty.
- Analysts remain positive on Apple‘s long-term potential, with Wedbush setting a $350 price target.
Apple is capitalizing on the Artificial Intelligence boom without massive spending, according to CNBC analyst Jim Cramer, who highlighted the tech giant’s advantageous deal with Google for its Gemini AI. Cramer stated on his Mad Money program that “Apple got the greatest free ride ever. They have the best, Gemini…”, suggesting the partnership offsets Apple‘s own slower AI development.
However, Apple‘s stock has faced recent pressure, trading near break-even after a 2% gain in February. Consequently, data from Polymarket forecasts the stock could fall to $240 from its current $263 by month’s end.
Another reason for the decline is a Bloomberg report detailing postponed upgrades to Siri. The virtual assistant’s unreliable voice commands and slow processing reportedly led to a 5% single-session stock drop.
Meanwhile, CEO Tim Cook has teased a major reveal, tweeting “A big week ahead. It all starts Monday morning!” alongside a cryptic video. Despite short-term concerns, analysts like those at Wedbush project a $350 price target for AAPL, indicating significant confidence in its future performance.
