The successful prediction of Apple's future price could yield a significant profit. Please, note that this module is not intended to be used solely to calculate an intrinsic value of Apple and does not consider all of the tangible or intangible factors available from Apple's fundamental data.

It is a matter of debate whether stock price prediction based on information in financial news can generate a strong buy or sell signal. We use our internally-built news screening methodology to estimate the value of Apple based on different types of headlines from major news networks to social media. The Apple stock price prediction module provides an analysis of price elasticity to changes in media outlook on Apple over a specific investment horizon. Using Apple hype-based prediction, you can estimate the value of Apple Inc from the perspective of Apple response to recently generated media hype and the effects of current headlines on its competitors. We also analyze overall investor sentiment towards Apple using Apple's stock options and short interest. It helps to benchmark the overall future attitude of investors towards Apple using crowd psychology based on the activity and movement of Apple's stock price.

Apple Short Interest

A significant increase or decrease in Apple's short interest from the previous month could be a good indicator of investor sentiment towards Apple. Short interest can provide insight into the potential direction of Apple stock and how bullish or bearish investors feel about the market overall. An investor who is long Apple may also wish to track short interest. As short interest increases, investors should be becoming more worried about Apple and may potentially protect profits, hedge Apple with its derivative instruments, or be ready for some potential downside.

Apple Inc Hype to Price Pattern

Investor biases related to Apple's public news can be used to forecast risks associated with an investment in Apple. The trend in average sentiment can be used to explain how an investor holding Apple can time the market purely based on public headlines and social activities around Apple Inc. Please note that most equities that are difficult to arbitrage are affected by market sentiment the most.
Some investors profit by finding stocks that are overvalued or undervalued based on market sentiment. The correlation of Apple's market sentiment to its price can help taders to make decisions based on the overall investors consensus about Apple.

Apple Implied Volatility

    
  30.96  
Apple's implied volatility exposes the market's sentiment of Apple Inc stock's possible movements over time. However, it does not forecast the overall direction of its price. In a nutshell, if Apple's implied volatility is high, the market thinks the stock has potential for high price swings in either direction. On the other hand, the low implied volatility suggests that Apple stock will not fluctuate a lot when Apple's options are near their expiration.
This module is based on analyzing investor sentiment around taking a position in Apple. This speculative approach is based exclusively on the idea that markets are driven by emotions such as investor fear and greed. The fear of missing out, i.e., FOMO, can cause potential investors in Apple to buy its stock at a price that has no basis in reality. In that case, they are not buying Apple because the equity is a good investment, but because they need to do something to avoid the feeling of missing out. On the other hand, investors will often sell stocks at prices well below their value during bear markets because they need to stop feeling the pain of losing money.

Apple after-hype prediction price

    
  USD 174.05  
There is no one specific way to measure market sentiment using hype analysis or a similar predictive technique.

Prediction based on Rule 16 of the current Apple contract

Based on the Rule 16, the options market is currently suggesting that Apple Inc will have an average daily up or down price movement of about 1.94% per day over the life of the 2024-03-22 option contract. With Apple trading at USD 173.72, that is roughly USD 3.36 .

But if you have an opposite viewpoint you should avoid it and even consider selling them.

Apple Stock Price Prediction Analysis

Have you ever been surprised when a price of a Company such as Apple is soaring high without any particular reason? This is usually happening because many institutional investors are aggressively trading Apple backward and forwards among themselves. Have you ever observed a lot of a particular company's price movement is driven by press releases or news about the company that has nothing to do with actual earnings? Usually, hype to individual companies acts as price momentum. If not enough favorable publicity is forthcoming, the Stock price eventually runs out of speed. So, the rule of thumb here is that as long as this news hype has nothing to do with immediate earnings, you should pay more attention to it. If you see this tendency with Apple, there might be something going there, and it might present an excellent short sale opportunity.

About Apple Predictive Indicators

The successful prediction of Apple stock price could yield a significant profit to investors. But is it possible? The efficient-market hypothesis suggests that all published stock prices of traded companies, such as Apple Inc, already reflect all publicly available information. This academic statement is a fundamental principle of many financial and investing theories used today. However, the typical investor usually disagrees with a 'textbook' version of this hypothesis and continually tries to find mispriced stocks to increase returns. We use internally-developed statistical techniques to arrive at the intrinsic value of Apple based on analysis of Apple hews, social hype, general headline patterns, and widely used predictive technical indicators.
We also calculate exposure to Apple's market risk, different technical and fundamental indicators, relevant financial multiples and ratios, and then comparing them to Apple's related companies.

Story Coverage note for Apple

The number of cover stories for Apple depends on current market conditions and Apple's risk-adjusted performance over time. The coverage that generates the most noise at a given time depends on the prevailing investment theme that Apple is classified under. However, while its typical story may have numerous social followers, the rapid visibility can also attract short-sellers, who usually are skeptical about Apple's long-term prospects. So, having above-average coverage will typically attract above-average short interest, leading to significant price volatility.

The market value of Apple Inc is measured differently than its book value, which is the value of Apple that is recorded on the company's balance sheet. Investors also form their own opinion of Apple's value that differs from its market value or its book value, called intrinsic value, which is Apple's true underlying value. Investors use various methods to calculate intrinsic value and buy a stock when its market value falls below its intrinsic value. Because Apple's market value can be influenced by many factors that don't directly affect Apple's underlying business (such as a pandemic or basic market pessimism), market value can vary widely from intrinsic value.
Please note, there is a significant difference between Apple's value and its price as these two are different measures arrived at by different means. Investors typically determine if Apple is a good investment by looking at such factors as earnings, sales, fundamental and technical indicators, competition as well as analyst projections. However, Apple's price is the amount at which it trades on the open market and represents the number that a seller and buyer find agreeable to each party.
