Apple shares traded in the 330–340 range during the week of September 28, 2026, after pulling back from a 52-week high near 345 amid mixed post-launch reaction to the iPhone 18 series and first foldable iPhone Duo unveiled September 9. The new CEO transition to John Ternus, combined with September-quarter supply constraints and rising memory costs pressuring gross margins, tempered enthusiasm despite robust Q3 results and services growth. Analyst price targets clustered around 328–355, with some modest downward revisions reflecting pricing and competitive concerns, while options markets priced in continued volatility ahead of the October 29 earnings release. Trader positioning for the weekly close reflected these near-term margin and demand uncertainties against Apple’s elevated valuation near 4.8 trillion in market cap.
