AAPL - Apple Stock Price Prediction: Why AAPL Could Fall to $120
InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice & Trading Tips
Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) stock is taking a beating on Monday as a new price prediction claims the company’s shares could plummet to $120 each.
According to FXStreet, AAPL stock could fall hard due to the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine. While potential peace talks eased investors’ fears last week, that quickly came to an end as the invasion continues.
Not helping matters is China issuing new lockdowns as Covid-19 cases skyrocket. That has investors worried about a bear market and possible problems for Apple as it relies on the country for components that are used in its devices.
Also, China hasn’t been a favorite among some countries as many have placed sanctions on Russia over its war in Ukraine. China has yet to do this and there’s even talk that the country may assist Russia in its war. If that happens, China could face similar sanctions.
So what would that mean for investors? Expect Chinese stocks to fall if that happens. That’s something we’ve already been seeing today as various companies are dropping alongside the news over the weekend.
The tech sector hasn’t been doing well already with inflation fears channeling lower prices for many stocks. Add in potential supply chain restrictions due to the war and potential restrictions on China and a $120 price prediction for Apple stock doesn’t seem all that crazy.
AAPL stock is down 1.7% as of Monday afternoon and is down 16.5% since the start of the year.
