Apple stock is outperforming the S&P 500 and could keep rising

MarketWatch says Apple’s shift in how investors view its AI strategy has helped it gain more respect versus earlier expectations.

MarketWatch reports that Apple’s stock has been beating the S&P 500 by a notable margin.

The outlet says Apple was previously seen as falling behind in artificial intelligence, but recent strategic choices have led to a change in how investors rate the company’s AI positioning.

MarketWatch adds that this improved perception could leave additional upside as the market continues to reappraise Apple’s approach.
