巴克莱下调苹果股票评级 警告iPhone需求将放缓

财联社1月2日讯(编辑 牛占林)由于对最新款iPhone需求疲软的预期,巴克莱分析师罕见下调了苹果股票评级。周二美股盘前,苹果股价下跌逾2%。 以Tim Long为首的巴克莱分析师将苹果的股票评级下调至低配,目标价从161美元下调至160美元,这意味着该公司未来一年的股价将下跌17%。 在周二发布的一份研报中,巴克莱分析师写道:“在过去一年大部分季度业绩都未达到预期的情况下,苹果股价表现却优于其他公司,我们预计这种情况将发生转变。” 该行分析师还指出,新款iPhone 15表现平平,销量和配置均不及预期,且预计iPhone 16也会如此,没有什么更具吸引力的功能或升级。 去年,苹果股价上涨了约50%,在12月中旬刷新了历史新高,其市值达到了3万亿美元,投资者押注其旗舰设备将能够抵御经济疲软。然而,现在人们开始怀疑,鉴于竞争对手的不断崛起以及苹果令人失望的创新能力,该股是否能够维持其庞大的市值。 根据彭博汇编的数据,巴克莱新的低配评级意味着,苹果目前拥有5个卖出或同级别评级,而买入评级为34个,持有评级为14个。华尔街的普遍预期是苹果在2024年将上涨3.6%。 Accuvest Global Advisors ...
