Apple Stock Surges as iPhone 17 Demand Beats Expectations

iPhone 17 Demand Is Surprising Everyone — Can Apple Keep the Momentum?

Apple is seeing its stock (Apple (AAPL) reach a fresh high in 2025 as demand for the newly released iPhone 17 well exceeds expectations. After pre-orders opened, reports suggest demand is 10-15% ahead of the iPhone 16 cycle. Friendly shipping times and strong early sales—especially for premium models—have analysts like Wedbush raising their 12-month target sharply to $310, seeing room for further upside.

On another front, Apple has formally pushed back on the EU’s Digital Markets Act (DMA), arguing it slows rollout of features like live translation on its AirPods, and generally calling for the law to be loosened. Meanwhile, whispers of a possible investment into Intel from Apple have surfaced, which could strengthen Apple’s chip supply / collaboration landscape if it pans out.

For traders, this setup is rich in possible entry points and risk signals. The strong iPhone 17 demand gives momentum, especially if the Pro and premium lines continue to show strength. But regulatory pressure (from the DMA) and macro risks (tariffs, chip supply, China demand) could introduce sharp pullbacks. Key moments to watch: next earnings report, EU regulatory action or statements, and any confirmation or denial of the Apple-Intel tie-ups.
