Apple shares traded near $339 on September 21, 2026, supported by reports of lengthening iPhone 18 Pro preorder wait times that signal stronger-than-expected initial demand. Recent fiscal Q3 results showed 16% revenue growth to $109.4 billion and EPS of $2.02, with services and Mac also posting records, though September-quarter guidance highlighted moderating services growth and supply constraints. The stock trades at a premium valuation around 33–38 times forward earnings, above the consensus analyst price target of roughly $328, prompting some caution from firms like Morgan Stanley while others such as Evercore ISI raised targets to $380. Broader market momentum and ETF flows remain key near-term influences ahead of the next earnings release on October 29.
