- Apple faces growing iPhone demand concerns as delivery wait times shrink, UBS warns
UBS warns that shorter delivery times for Apple's latest iPhones could signal weaker demand and put revenue forecasts at risk, even though sales in key markets remain resilient. Average wait for the iPhone 18 Pro fell about four days year on year to around 11 days, versus 15 days for the iPhone 17 Pro and 16 Pro, while the Pro Max averaged about 19 days. Week-on-week declines of about 1 day for the Pro and 5 days for the Pro Max suggest limited room for estimates to rise, and UBS worries that Apple's price increases could push buyers to delay or choose cheaper models. The bank kept its iPhone forecasts unchanged but sees downside risks, projecting September-quarter revenue of $55.9 billion (up 14%) and 55 million shipments, below the consensus of 57.8 million. UBS retains a $296 price target, citing solid demand alongside gross margin pressure and supply-chain challenges.
- Apple’s iPhone Duo Sold Out In Minutes. The Last Time Apple Reinvented The Phone, One Apple Supplier’s Stock Soared About 1,200% In A Decade
Apple's first foldable iPhone, the iPhone Duo, sold out within minutes of its worldwide preorders opening on Oct. 16, but buyers who ordered more than an hour later face a delay of nearly three months, according to Korea JoongAng Daily, which puts the U.S. starting price at $1,999. One unnamed supply-chain source said Foxconn's final-assembly yield was just above 60% heading into late September, against the 90%-plus rate Apple typically expects, and the hinge, which holds more than 100 parts, is cited as a constraint. Analyst Jeff Pu cut his 2026 shipment estimate from 7 million to 6 million, while reported forecasts range from about 6 million to 10 million units. The article also recalls that Skyworks Solutions, identified as the power-amplifier supplier of the original iPhone, rose about 1,200% over a decade, though those figures cover price only.
- Apple stock staged a rally to $5T "that no one liked": Melius
Melius Research says Apple's rally to a $5 trillion market value has been the 'most disliked rally in history,' but believes gains can continue despite hedge fund concerns about memory costs, services headwinds and high valuation. The stock trades at 36 times next-12-month EPS and is up 26% year to date, outperforming Amazon, Alphabet, Meta, Tesla and Nvidia. Melius reiterated its Buy rating and $370 price target ahead of earnings on Nov. 2, seeing room for the target to move higher. It highlighted new CEO John Ternus's push to broaden the product lineup, including a HomeView device with a robotic arm in 2027, camera-equipped AirPods and a redesigned iPhone for the device's 20th anniversary.

- iPhone Duo Preorders Sell Out Rapidly As Delivery Estimates Slip Into January
Apple's iPhone Duo, its first foldable phone and most expensive iPhone, opened for preorder on Friday, with launch-day pickup inventory selling out quickly and some online delivery estimates slipping into late January. Apple called demand 'nothing short of extraordinary' and said it will keep taking online orders. The Duo starts at $1,999 and passes $3,000 at the 2TB tier, and supply is expected to be tight; IDC expects Apple to ship about 7 million units this year, roughly 3% of its total, and sees shipments growing 70% next year, which could give Apple about 40% of the foldable market. Analysts say the high price could lift revenue, but it could also stretch out upgrade cycles. Apple's latest quarter brought in $109.4 billion in revenue, up 16%, but it guided September-quarter revenue growth to 9% to 11%, citing supply limits and memory costs.

- JPMorgan Puts a Number on Bitcoin for the First Time: 10% a Year, With a Big Caveat
J.P. Morgan Asset Management projected a 10% compound annual return for Bitcoin over the next 10 to 15 years in its 2027 Long-Term Capital Market Assumptions, the first time the report includes the asset. That forecast tops its estimates for U.S. large-cap stocks (7.5%), gold (5.5%) and a 60/40 stock-bond portfolio (7%), but the report puts Bitcoin's annualized volatility at 55%, versus about 17% for gold. The firm still excludes Bitcoin from its main covariance matrices, citing volatility and unstable correlations, and rejected the currency debasement bull case as “wide of the mark.” Bitwise's Matt Hougan welcomed the forecast but argued the 55% volatility assumption is too high, making the return estimate too conservative. Meanwhile, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs drew $526.7 million on Monday, trimming October's net outflows to about $88 million.

- Archer vs Joby: What's the Better eVTOL Stock to Buy Right Now?
The article compares Joby Aviation and Archer Aviation, two eVTOL (flying taxi) companies nearing FAA approval but still unprofitable. For the six months ended June 30, Archer had $1.6 billion in cash and short-term investments and used $305.5 million in operations, while Joby had $2.3 billion and used $317.6 million, so Joby may need a smaller cash infusion. Joby generated $38.6 million in revenue last quarter, helped by its Blade Air Mobility passenger business, but its net loss was $245 million versus Archer's $263 million. Joby's $4.7 billion market cap is well above Archer's $3.1 billion, and the author favors Archer on valuation. Both stocks remain highly volatile and face a long road before turning profitable.
- Stock Market Today, Oct. 20: Netflix Q3 Revenue Rises 12% on Pricing Power
Netflix closed at $68.66, down 1.70%, ahead of its after-close Q3 report, and was down 5.1% in after-hours trading as of 4:31 p.m. ET. Q3 revenue rose 12% year over year to $12.9 billion, and diluted EPS climbed from $0.59 to $0.87. Netflix outperformed every metric for which it provides quarterly guidance, with larger profit surprises than revenue surprises, but its fourth-quarter guidance looked muted, with slower sales growth and lower profit from seasonal effects and impairment costs tied to recently announced job cuts. That day, the S&P 500 closed at 7,711 (up 0.26%) and the Nasdaq Composite at 26,425 (down 0.02%).
- 2 Dividend Stocks Crushing the Market in 2026 (and Which Ones Can Keep Going)
The article examines Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) and Amgen (AMGN), two dividend stocks that have outperformed the market in 2026. For J&J, revenue and earnings beat expectations and guidance was slightly raised, but its medtech unit faces weaker Impella demand and a Class 1 recall in the U.S.; the article still sees long-term prospects intact, citing new drug launches, the OTTAVA surgical system, a proposed $5.5 billion talc settlement and a 64-year dividend increase streak. Amgen's second-quarter revenue rose 10% to $10.1 billion despite FDA moves to remove Tavneos and falling denosumab sales after losing exclusivity. The article says growth drivers such as Tezspire, Tepezza and the MariTide obesity candidate could offset these headwinds.
