Apple’s Stock Performance Overview
Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) has significantly underperformed the S&P 500 over the last five years, while historically outpacing it over the past decade. As of now, Apple shares trade at a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 34.8, surpassing the S&P 500’s ratio of approximately 25.2. This indicates a potential overvaluation.
In the fiscal Q3 of 2025, ended June 28, Apple reported revenue of $94 billion, reflecting a year-over-year growth of 9.6%, but only 13.4% higher than three years prior. Analysts suggest that the company’s massive scale could lead to diminished growth prospects in the future.
