The Risk in Apple's Stock That Nobody Is Talking About

Published July 22, 2026 · Category: Finance

Overview

Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) stock has quietly been one of 2026's top-performing stocks. It's up around 20% so far this year, outperforming many other big tech peers. In fact, it isn't that far away from retaking the title of world's largest company from Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA). Currently, Nvidia is a $4.9 trillion company, while Apple sits at $4.8 trillion. However, there's a hidden risk with Apple's stock that nobody is talking about: valuation.

Most of Apple's share price growth in recent years has come from investors being willing to pay more for its sales and earnings, not from actual improvements in its business performance. This could be a major issue, because Apple may have some emerging problems on its hands.
