Apple's share price: Unprecedented growth<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Apple (AAPL) stock price has risen by nearly 40% in 2024. On the morning of December 27, the company's market capitalization stood at $3.92 trillion - just a small step away from the unprecedented milestone of $4 trillion. Analysts see the main reason for this increase in a combination of technological innovations and strong market confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apple Intelligence: The new growth driver<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

A key driver is the introduction of the so-called "Apple Intelligence". This new platform shows how Apple integrates artificial intelligence into its products. Wedbush analyst Daniel Ives describes this initiative as "crucial" for Apple's future growth. According to Ives, Apple's AI strategy is currently underestimated by the market. But he is convinced that the efforts will soon be reflected in significant growth. Specifically, he sees the development of hundreds of apps as one of the most important factors. These applications are expected to increase Apple's sales by several billion and at the same time further increase demand for iPhones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ives believes that Apple is heading for a multi-year iPhone upgrade cycle that will benefit greatly from AI-driven features. Apple's strategy is by no means a quick fix but a long-term plan. The analyst explains via Fortune<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nevertheless, the foundations have already been laid and the next 12 to 18 months could be decisive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
