Apple Stock Is Up 22%, but 1 Slowing Business Could Test That Valuation

Apple's stock has risen 22% this year, reaching a valuation of 38 times earnings. However, its services business, a key profit driver, saw growth slow to 10% in Q4 2026, with expectations of 8-9% in Q1 2027. Services accounted for 40% of Apple's gross profit last year. While overall revenue grew 15% to $479 billion, analysts warn that further weakening in services growth could pressure the stock's valuation.
