APPLE INC

Apple

Apple is among the largest companies in the world, with a broad portfolio of hardware and software products targeted at consumers and businesses. Apple's iPhone makes up a majority of the firm sales, and Apple's other products like Mac, iPad, and Watch are designed around the iPhone as the focal point of an expansive software ecosystem. Apple has progressively worked to add new applications, like streaming video, subscription bundles, and augmented reality. The firm designs its own software and semiconductors while working with subcontractors like Foxconn and TSMC to build its products and chips. Slightly less than half of Apple's sales come directly through its flagship stores, with a majority of sales coming indirectly through partnerships and distribution.

Apple Inc

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) is reportedly looking to harness the power of generative artificial intelligence to accelerate the development of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/07/40027650/apples-ai-models-trained-on-googles-custom-chips-not-nvidias-report">custom chips that power</a> its devices, according to senior executive Johny Srouji.
What Happened: During a speech in Belgium last month, Apple's senior vice president of hardware technologies, Srouji, said the company is exploring generative AI to streamline chip design, calling it a major productivity opportunity, reported Reuters on Wednesday.
"Generative AI techniques have a high potential in getting more design work in less time, and it can be a huge productivity boost," Srouji said, according to a recording reviewed by the publication.
He made the remarks while accepting an award from Imec, a prominent semiconductor R&amp;D organization.

During his speech, Srouji highlighted that electronic design automation (EDA) firms like Cadence Design Systems (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CDNS#NASDAQ">CDNS</a>) and Synopsys Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNPS#NASDAQ">SNPS</a>)—both racing to integrate AI—are critical to managing the complexity of Apple's chip development.
Srouji also reflected on Apple's bold move in 2020 to replace Intel Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) chips in Mac computers with its own Apple Silicon. He said that it was a major takeaway from Apple&#8217;s chip development journey was the importance of making bold decisions and moving forward without hesitation.
&nbsp;"There was no backup plan, no split-the-lineup plan, so we went all in," he said. "Including a monumental software effort."
Why It's Important: Last month, it was reported that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45324239/apples-upcoming-chips-aim-to-challenge-meta-in-the-smart-glasses-battle-report">Apple is developing new chips</a> to power upcoming smart glasses, AI servers and future Macs. Apple aims to launch it by 2026–2027.
Meanwhile, the M5 chip, built on the advanced 3nm N3P architecture, has reportedly entered mass production and is expected to enhance the MacBook Pro, iPad Pro and Vision Pro—especially with upcoming Apple Intelligence features.
Price Action: Apple shares have declined 19.38% year-to-date and are down 8.26% over the past 12 months. On Wednesday, the stock rose 0.48% during regular trading but dipped 0.26% after hours, per <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro data</a>.
Benzinga's Edge Stock Rankings reflect a steady downward trend for Apple across the short, medium, and long term. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">Additional performance insights are available here</a>.

Apple Hardware Executive Says iPhone Maker Plans To Use AI For Speeding Up Custom Chip Design: 'High Potential In Getting More Design Work In Less Time'

Roundhill Investments launched five new <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">WeeklyPay ETFs</a>, each aiming to deliver weekly dividends without sacrificing upside or using options.
The new additions include:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Roundhill AMZN WeeklyPay ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZW#BATS">AMZW</a>), following Amazon (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), </li>
<li>Roundhill BRKB WeeklyPay ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRKW#BATS">BRKW</a>), following Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>), </li>
<li>Roundhill HOOD WeeklyPay ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOOW#BATS">HOOW</a>), following Robinhood (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOOD#NASDAQ">HOOD</a>)</li>
<li>Roundhill META WeeklyPay ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/METW#BATS">METW</a>), following Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) </li>
<li>Roundhill NFLX WeeklyPay ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLW#BATS">NFLW</a>), following Netflix (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>)</li>
</ul>
These launches bring the WeeklyPay family to 10 ETFs. Each fund aims to capture 120% of the aggregate return of its underlying security each calendar week, as well as a regular distribution.
That&#8217;s a clear divergence from the way most single-stock income ETFs operate, usually through selling covered calls, which exchange upside potential for option premiums. And with more than $15 billion flowing into such a strategy, the company obviously believes there is room for disruption.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Different Kind Of Income ETF</h2>
Instead of depending on derivatives, Roundhill&#8217;s WeeklyPay ETFs employ leverage to enhance returns, aiming at 1.2x the performance of the underlying stock on a weekly basis. That multiplier, naturally, involves risk, particularly in downward environments, but it also avoids having investors forego gains in a bull market, as with covered call strategies.
The money also makes weekly payments, which might be enticing for income-oriented investors tired of the slow dribble of dividends.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">From Tech Giants To Meme Stocks</h2>
Roundhill&#8217;s current roster already boasts single-stock ETFs tied to such names as Apple (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), Nvidia (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), and Palantir (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>). But the company isn&#8217;t yet done.
It has applied for additional WeeklyPay ETFs tracking an eclectic roster: from blue chips such as Microsoft (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) and Alphabet (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>), to semicon-weighty names such as AMD (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>) and ASML Holding (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>), to speculative darlings such as Reddit (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RDDT#NYSE">RDDT</a>), DraftKings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DKNG#NASDAQ">DKNG</a>), and MicroStrategy (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>).
The message is plain: Roundhill is looking to track the entire gamut of investor demand—tech, momentum, income, and high-risk stocks—all under one umbrella.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What To Watch</h2>
While the structure has upside potential, it&#8217;s not without its cautionary tales. Leveraged exposure, even at a 1.2x rate, amplifies gains and losses as much as it amplifies the underlying. And while the absence of options sidesteps issues of premium decay and call-away risk, investors should still look at how distributions are made and what level of volatility to anticipate.

 </style>Upon closer analysis of Apple, the following trends become apparent: 
<ul>
<li>
The stock's Price to Earnings ratio of 30.47 is lower than the industry average by 0.87x, suggesting potential value in the eyes of market participants.
</li>
<li>
With a Price to Book ratio of 43.75, which is 6.71x the industry average, Apple might be considered overvalued in terms of its book value, as it is trading at a higher multiple compared to its industry peers.
</li>
<li>
The Price to Sales ratio of 7.43, which is 3.89x the industry average, suggests the stock could potentially be overvalued in relation to its sales performance compared to its peers.
</li>
<li>
The company has a higher Return on Equity (ROE) of 37.11%, which is 32.35% above the industry average. This suggests efficient use of equity to generate profits and demonstrates profitability and growth potential.
</li>
<li>
The company has higher Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (EBITDA) of $32.25 Billion, which is 129.0x above the industry average, indicating stronger profitability and robust cash flow generation.
</li>
<li>
The company has higher gross profit of $44.87 Billion, which indicates 59.04x above the industry average, indicating stronger profitability and higher earnings from its core operations.
</li>
<li>
The company's revenue growth of 5.08% is significantly below the industry average of 12.29%. This suggests a potential struggle in generating increased sales volume.
</li>
</ul>
<h3>Debt To Equity Ratio</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1750258838_0.png" alt="debt to equity" />
The debt-to-equity (D/E) ratio assesses the extent to which a company relies on borrowed funds compared to its equity.
Considering the debt-to-equity ratio in industry comparisons allows for a concise evaluation of a company's financial health and risk profile, aiding in informed decision-making.
By considering the Debt-to-Equity ratio, Apple can be compared to its top 4 peers, leading to the following observations:
<ul>
<li>
Apple is positioned in the middle in terms of the debt-to-equity ratio compared to its top 4 peers.
</li>
<li>
This suggests a balanced financial structure, where the company maintains a moderate level of debt while also relying on equity financing with a debt-to-equity ratio of 1.47.
</li>
</ul>
<h3>Key Takeaways</h3>
For Apple in the Technology Hardware, Storage &amp; Peripherals industry, the PE, PB, and PS ratios indicate that the stock is relatively undervalued compared to its peers. However, the high ROE, EBITDA, gross profit, and low revenue growth suggest that Apple is efficiently utilizing its resources and generating strong profits, despite slower revenue growth. Overall, Apple's financial performance is solid, with room for potential growth in the future.

President Trump Says Apple Is Going To Buy A Lot Of Trump Gold Cards

The global market for humanoid robots is set to soar, with a UBS report predicting a significant increase in their numbers by 2050. This forecast is expected to have a substantial impact on various industries.
What Happened: A recent report by UBS, led by analysts in China, suggests that the number of humanoid robots in operation will reach 2 million by 2035 and a staggering 300 million by 2050. This surge is anticipated to address labor shortages and cater to aging populations, <a href="https://www.marketwatch.com/story/300-million-humanoid-robots-are-coming-and-here-are-the-companies-that-will-benefit-04c36ae8?mod=home_ln">MarketWatch</a> reported.
The report projects the market could reach $30 billion to $50 billion by 2035, and soar to between $1.4 trillion and $1.7 trillion by 2050, encompassing expenditures on components, manufacturing, software, data, and services. 
By 2050, 86 million humanoid robots could add $400 billion to global automation revenue and $7 billion to rare-earth revenue, with costs expected to drop over 70% due to scale and supply chain gains.
UBS analyst Phyllis Wang emphasized the potential of humanoid robots for everyday use but noted that their widespread adoption could take over five years.
Several industries are expected to benefit from this projected surge in humanoid robots, including global automation, auto parts, semiconductor, battery companies, and rare-earth refiners. UBS has identified companies such as NVIDIA (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), Honeywell (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HON#NASDAQ">HON</a>), TSMC (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NASDAQ">TSM</a>), ]Cognex (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CGNX#NASDAQ">CGNX</a>), Amphenol NYSE: (APH) and several Chinese companies as potential beneficiaries.
Even Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), which is not rated as a buy by UBS, is expected to benefit from this.

Why It Matters: This prediction aligns with recent developments in the robotics industry.

Nvidia, Tesla, Honeywell Could Ride $1.7 Trillion Robot Wave As UBS Sees 300 Million Humanoids By 2050

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) avoided a $300 million patent infringement penalty on Monday after a federal appeals court ruled that faulty jury instructions violated the tech giant&#8217;s constitutional rights in its dispute with patent licensing firm Optis Cellular Technology.
What Happened: The three-judge panel vacated both the original $506.2 million verdict from 2020 and the reduced $300 million damages award, citing procedural errors in the Eastern District Court of Texas proceedings, <a href="https://www.theregister.com/2025/06/17/apple_optis_patent_infringement/">reported</a> The Register. 
The court found that jurors were improperly instructed to issue a single decision on five separate LTE cellular technology patents rather than evaluating each claim individually.
The legal battle between <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/07/33111788/apple-loses-appeal-over-4g-patent-infringement-in-london-court-optis-scores-another-victory">Apple and Optis began in 2019</a>, spanning multiple jurisdictions with six separate trials and several appellate hearings in Britain alone. In 2021, a Texas judge initially upheld a jury&#8217;s decision ordering <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/21/08/22500404/apple-order-to-pay-300m-in-royalties-over-wireless-technology-patent">Apple to pay $300 million in royalties to PanOptis</a> Patent Management and its Optis units for LTE cellular standard patents.
The appeals panel determined that combining all five infringement claims into a single jury question violated Apple&#8217;s Seventh Amendment right to unanimous jury findings on each patent claim. The court noted that both Apple and Optis had requested separate evaluations for each patent.

Why It Matters: Apple&#8217;s legal challenges extend beyond patent disputes, as the company was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/04/44952117/apple-and-meta-fined-nearly-800-million-for-violating-european-unions-digital-markets-act">fined approximately $570 million</a> by the European Union in April for violating the Digital Markets Act by restricting app developers from informing users about alternative sales channels.
The company also faces ongoing Apple Watch patent disputes with Masimo Corporation <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/01/36474691/theres-uncertainty-around-apples-patent-appeal-for-watch-masimos-royalty-exposure-i">over pulse oximetry technology</a>.
The matter returns to the district court for a third retrial, though Apple emerges in a stronger position given the appeals court&#8217;s findings on patent validity and procedural issues. Optis remains confident in its patents&#8217; validity, stating that Apple continues infringing critical connectivity technologies used in millions of devices, according to the report.

Apple Dodges $300 Million Patent Penalty As Appeals Court Cites Jury Instruction Errors In LTE Dispute With Optis

Steve Jobs earned a reputation for merciless standards, yet sometimes his demand for perfection came wrapped in jaw-dropping generosity.
What Happened: Ron Givens, Apple's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) director of quality from 1981 to 1986, recalled the day a secretary shuffled in late. Jobs stormed over to ask why, and she admitted her car had died that morning.
"That afternoon, he walks into her office, tosses a set of keys to a brand-new Jaguar and says, ‘Here, don't be late anymore,'" Givens told WRAL in an <a href="https://www.wral.com/story/10230791/">interview</a> back in 2011. A Jaguar XJ cost roughly $35,000 in 1981, about $123,000 in today's dollars when adjusted for inflation, making the spur-of-the-moment gift an extraordinary employee perk.
The story illustrates the paradox of Apple's co-founder, who was a boss employees feared, yet one who could motivate "out of your socks," as Givens put it. Jobs, then 26, lived and breathed the company, prowling hallways to grill engineers on pixel placement one minute and springing surprises the next.

Givens, two decades older, said he often thought Jobs's ideas were "stupid" until their brilliance clicked later. Back in 2011, he said he still kept a $1,000 Steuben-glass apple Jobs had handed him unannounced.
Why It Matters: Steve Jobs ran Apple with icy precision, insisting on "<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/management/25/05/45190886/steve-jobs-warned-the-difference-between-good-and-great-software-engineers-is-50to1-admitted-firing-non-performers-was-very-painful-yet-necessary">only A players</a>" and admitting that firing weaker talent, though "very painful," was necessary to maintain high standards. His late-night demands could left teams exhausted, and Pixar's Pete Docter later said Jobs's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45943213/steve-jobs-shared-this-work-habit-with-elon-musk-and-jeff-bezos-says-pixar-exec-but-vows-never-to-repeat-it">3 am phone calls</a> were a work trait he would "never repeat."
Elon Musk openly praises that edge, agreeing with Jobs that a CEO's chief duty is "recruiting exceptional talent" rather than hand-holding staff, and he echoes Jobs's view that "the greatest people are <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/42253830/elon-musk-agrees-with-steve-jobs-on-the-most-important-job-of-a-ceo-heres-what-the-legendary-apple-co-founder-had-to-say">self-managing</a>."
Not every leader wants the full Jobs playbook. Bill Gates once called comparing Musk to the "genius" Jobs a "<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/04/44780772/bill-gates-said-its-a-gross-oversimplification-to-compare-elon-musk-to-genius-steve-jobs-you-wouldnt-walk-into-a-room-and-confu">gross oversimplification</a>," warning that charisma can mask managerial chaos.

Steve Jobs Once Gave A Secretary A Brand New Jaguar Out Of The Blue, Here Is Why The Apple Co-Founder Was So Generous

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) has been logging a majority of revenue declines over the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/AAPL/earnings">past few quarters</a> &#8211; unusual for a company long viewed as a flagship growth stock. But for investors still expecting explosive upside from Cupertino, it may be time for a portfolio recalibration.
Despite the iPhone maker's premium brand equity and robust ecosystem, the "growth" narrative around Apple is increasingly misplaced, says analyst Sandeep Rao of Leverage Shares in exclusive comments shared with Benzinga via email.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Apple Revenue Growth, Innovation Slowing</h2>
The company's latest net sales trend shows just a 12% year-over-year increase &#8211; a figure that barely keeps pace with inflation. When adjusted for price hikes, actual unit growth appears stagnant.
Worse, innovation seems to be slowing. Apple's product lineup, while polished, lacks the wow factor or competitive edge needed to convert new users in droves. Unlike the Android universe, which offers a range of devices at multiple price points, Apple's model seems geared toward retention &#8211; not aggressive expansion.
With little in the way of AI leadership and a Services segment facing margin pressure (more on that in a moment), Rao says, &#8220;Apple is better understood as a &#8216;value&#8217; stock instead of a &#8216;growth" stock.'&#8221; And that's not necessarily a bad thing.
For dividend-driven investors, Apple may be carving out a new niche. While its 0.5% yield pales in comparison to energy giants, it beats peers like Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>). And its global consumer base and strong balance sheet position it as a potential bellwether for economic stability.
If you're seeking the next breakout tech name, Apple may no longer fit the bill. But for those seeking stability and modest income, it might just be settling into a new, quieter kind of greatness.

<h3>Apple Background</h3>
Apple is among the largest companies in the world, with a broad portfolio of hardware and software products targeted at consumers and businesses. Apple's iPhone makes up a majority of the firm sales, and Apple's other products like Mac, iPad, and Watch are designed around the iPhone as the focal point of an expansive software ecosystem. Apple has progressively worked to add new applications, like streaming video, subscription bundles, and augmented reality. The firm designs its own software and semiconductors while working with subcontractors like Foxconn and TSMC to build its products and chips. Slightly less than half of Apple's sales come directly through its flagship stores, with a majority of sales coming indirectly through partnerships and distribution.

 </style>By closely examining Apple, we can identify the following trends: 
<ul>
<li>
With a Price to Earnings ratio of 30.91, which is 0.88x less than the industry average, the stock shows potential for growth at a reasonable price, making it an interesting consideration for market participants.
</li>
<li>
The elevated Price to Book ratio of 44.37 relative to the industry average by 6.79x suggests company might be overvalued based on its book value.
</li>
<li>
The Price to Sales ratio of 7.53, which is 3.94x the industry average, suggests the stock could potentially be overvalued in relation to its sales performance compared to its peers.
</li>
<li>
The Return on Equity (ROE) of 37.11% is 32.35% above the industry average, highlighting efficient use of equity to generate profits.
</li>
<li>
The company exhibits higher Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (EBITDA) of $32.25 Billion, which is 129.0x above the industry average, implying stronger profitability and robust cash flow generation.
</li>
<li>
With higher gross profit of $44.87 Billion, which indicates 59.04x above the industry average, the company demonstrates stronger profitability and higher earnings from its core operations.
</li>
<li>
The company's revenue growth of 5.08% is significantly lower compared to the industry average of 12.29%. This indicates a potential fall in the company's sales performance.
</li>
</ul>
<h3>Debt To Equity Ratio</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1750172444_0.png" alt="debt to equity" />
The debt-to-equity (D/E) ratio is a measure that indicates the level of debt a company has taken on relative to the value of its assets net of liabilities.
Considering the debt-to-equity ratio in industry comparisons allows for a concise evaluation of a company's financial health and risk profile, aiding in informed decision-making.
In light of the Debt-to-Equity ratio, a comparison between Apple and its top 4 peers reveals the following information:
<ul>
<li>
Apple is positioned in the middle in terms of the debt-to-equity ratio compared to its top 4 peers.
</li>
<li>
This suggests a balanced financial structure, where the company maintains a moderate level of debt while also relying on equity financing with a debt-to-equity ratio of 1.47.
</li>
</ul>
<h3>Key Takeaways</h3>
For Apple in the Technology Hardware, Storage &amp; Peripherals industry, the PE ratio is low compared to peers, indicating potential undervaluation. The high PB and PS ratios suggest a premium valuation based on book value and sales. In terms of profitability, Apple's high ROE, EBITDA, and gross profit margins outperform industry peers, reflecting strong financial performance. However, the low revenue growth rate may indicate challenges in expanding market share compared to competitors.

Alibaba Updates LLMs To Power AI On Apple Devices In China

President Donald Trump has proposed giving <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/management/25/06/45853025/trump-account-promises-1000-for-every-kid-but-not-everyone-thinks-its-the-smartest-idea-out-there">parents $1,000 to invest </a>for their children at birth. A Benzinga reader poll asks which of the Magnificent 7 stocks parents should consider buying and holding for 18 years under the new plan.
What Happened: Trump's plan for $1,000 investment accounts for parents of newborns could give them a head start on investing in mutual funds, ETFs, and individual stocks, including fast-growing names like<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/magnificent-seven"> the Magnificent Seven stocks.</a>
Benzinga recently asked readers which Mag 7 stock they would invest the $1,000 in.
"Under Trump's $1,000 baby investment plan, which Mag 7 stock would you invest the money in for the best 18-year return?" Benzing asked.
The results were:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>): 21%</li>
<li>Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>): 17%</li>
<li>Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>)(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>): 14%</li>
<li>Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>): 14%</li>
<li>Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>): 12%</li>
<li>Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>): 12%</li>
<li>Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>): 10%</li>
</ul>
The winner of the poll was Nvidia with 21% of readers picking this stock as the one they would invest in and hold for the next 18 years to add wealth to their children's investment account. Apple was a close second at 17%, with Alphabet and Meta tied for third at 14%.
Tesla ranked last in the poll of the Mag 7 stocks with 10% of the vote, while Microsoft and Amazon tied for fifth with 12%.

</ul>
Why It's Important: Trump's plan for $1,000 investment accounts could have a bullish impact on the stock markets as it would create consistent new investment sources for top stocks and ETFs with every child born between Jan. 1, 2025 (retroactively) and Jan. 1, 2029
Parents could be faced with the tough choice of investing in a broad market fund like the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) that produces annual returns of 10% to 12% or to be more aggressive and pick some growth stocks.
Choosing just one Magnificent 7 stock is probablyn't the best recommendation as it would provide less diversification and be high-risk, high-reward.
A look at past returns shows the Mag 7 stocks have been high performers and outperformed the market. Here are the five-year returns:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Apple: +126.6%</li>
<li>Alphabet: +147.4%</li>
<li>Amazon: +61.7%</li>
<li>Microsoft: +145.0%</li>
<li>Meta: +193.6%</li>
<li>Nvidia: +1,466.5%</li>
<li>Tesla: +392.4%</li>
</ul>
All of these stocks, except for Amazon, outperformed the five-year gain of 95.1% for the SPY. 
For those looking for diversification between the Mag 7 stocks, the Roundill Magnificent Seven ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MAGS#BATS">MAGS</a>) offers exposure to all seven stocks.
If the investing accounts idea goes through, it would be interesting to see if any parents publicly track the holdings and their performance over an 18-year time frame.

After President Donald Trump&#8216;s sons unveiled <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45954307/donald-trump-wants-you-to-use-his-new-47-mobile-plan-with-a-499-gold-phone-made-in-america">Trump Mobile</a> on Monday, Wedbush analyst Daniel Ives described manufacturing phones in the U.S. as &#8220;a non-starter,&#8221; deeming it unprofitable.
What Happened: Dan Ives, in an X post, highlighted his conversation with ABC News, where he confirmed that trying to manufacture a phone in the U.S. wasn&#8217;t a profitable venture.
&#8220;Could the Trump organization produce phones, a few thousand, and probably lose money? Yeah! But the reality to produce phones in the U.S. is a fairytale,&#8221; he said.

He said that the logistics of moving iPhone manufacturing to the U.S. would be a &#8220;non-starter&#8221; at the current price point. &#8220;For U.S. consumers, the reality of a $1,000 iPhone being one of the best-made consumer products on the planet would disappear.&#8221;

STMicro Unveils Smart Sensor To Cut PC Power Use, Boost Privacy

Billionaire Mark Cuban questioned the manufacturing details of President Donald Trump&#8216;s family business&#8217;s newly announced mobile phone venture, writing on X Monday, &#8220;I just want to know who makes them and where,&#8221; following Eric Trump&#8216;s announcement that &#8220;Trump Mobile is going to revolutionize cell phones.&#8221;
What Happened: Cuban suggested the strategic play involves cryptocurrency integration, stating the game company is &#8220;probably playing is to put a crypto wallet on the phone that leverages World Liberty Financial (WLF), OFFICIAL TRUMP (TRUMP) and their stable coins.&#8221;
&#8220;Whatever transactions they can create generates fees for them and there are so many way to sell things and pre-load whatever they want,&#8221; Cuban wrote. 
Trump&#8217;s sons Eric and Donald Jr. unveiled Trump Mobile during a Monday event at Trump Tower in New York, marking the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45954307/donald-trump-wants-you-to-use-his-new-47-mobile-plan-with-a-499-gold-phone-made-in-america">latest business venture from the president&#8217;s family</a>. The service will operate as a mobile virtual network operator using T-Mobile US Inc.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TMUS#NASDAQ">TMUS</a>) network infrastructure through Liberty Mobile.
The company promises &#8220;made in America&#8221; phones, with a gold-colored T1 model priced at $499 available for September 2025 preorder with a $100 deposit. Trump Mobile&#8217;s flagship offering, &#8220;The 47 Plan,&#8221; costs $47.45 monthly, referencing Trump&#8217;s status as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45954307/donald-trump-wants-you-to-use-his-new-47-mobile-plan-with-a-499-gold-phone-made-in-america">both the 45th and 47th president</a>.

Why It Matters: The launch follows recent complications in Trump family crypto ventures. Their cryptocurrency wallet project was suspended earlier this month amid internal disputes at World Liberty Financial, though Eric Trump confirmed continued commitment to the TRUMP meme coin, which has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/45829666/trump-branded-crypto-wallet-project-suspended-amid-internal-dispute-says-eric-trump">contributed nearly $2.9 billion</a> to President Trump&#8217;s net worth.
Trump Mobile enters a market dominated by AT&amp;T Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/T#NYSE">T</a>), Verizon Communications Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VZ#NYSE">VZ</a>), and T-Mobile.

Cuban&#8217;s skepticism highlights industry questions about whether Trump phones will be manufactured domestically from launch or represent a future goal, particularly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45954307/donald-trump-wants-you-to-use-his-new-47-mobile-plan-with-a-499-gold-phone-made-in-america">as Trump has threatened to impose tariffs</a> on Apple Inc.

Mark Cuban Casts Doubt On Trump Mobile's 'Made In America' Claim, Suggests Crypto Wallet Play Behind $499 Phone Launch: 'Sell Things And Pre-load Whatever They Want'

The Series B funding round, which values Skild AI at approximately $4.5 billion, is led by a $100 million investment from Japan's SoftBank Group,<a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-06-12/nvidia-samsung-plan-investments-in-robotics-startup-skild-ai"> Bloomberg</a> reports.
Samsung has committed $10 million to the round, using the investment to keep strategic visibility into Skild's technology and talent pipeline without committing to full-scale acquisition. According to Bloomberg, Nvidia is contributing $25 million, reinforcing its growing push into what CEO Jensen Huang has described as the "physical AI" revolution.

</ul>
The round follows Skild's $300 million Series A raise in July 2024, which<a href="https://www.skild.ai/blogs/announcing-our-300m-series-a"> Skild AI</a> says included backing from Lightspeed Venture Partners, Coatue, SoftBank, and Amazon (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) founder Jeff Bezos through Bezos Expeditions.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Skild AI is Building the Brains Behind Next-Gen Robots</h2>
Skild AI says it is developing a shared "foundation model" that acts as a general-purpose brain for a wide range of robots across manipulation, locomotion, and navigation tasks. The startup notes that this model represents a step change in how robotic systems will scale, with long-term ambitions to build artificial general intelligence grounded in the physical world.
Skild AI positions its technology as a scalable solution to the U.S. labor shortage, particularly in high-risk industries like oil rigs and manufacturing. A <a href="https://www2.deloitte.com/us/en/insights/industry/manufacturing/manufacturing-industry-diversity.html">study</a> by Deloitte and The Manufacturing Institute projects that over 2.1 million U.S. manufacturing jobs could go unfilled by 2030, and the startup believes its adaptable foundation model could help rebalance labor across sectors.

Nvidia's investment aligns with its broader ecosystem strategy to integrate intelligent robotics into everyday environments, from homes to factories to autonomous vehicles. According to Bloomberg, the company already supports startups like Figure AI and Serve Robotics and offers the necessary semiconductors and software infrastructure to support robotics deployment at scale.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Samsung Moves Quietly but Intentionally in Robotics</h2>
Samsung sees the Skild investment as a way to monitor emerging robotics breakthroughs while staying competitive with fellow South Korean conglomerates like LG, Hanwha, and Mirae Asset, which have also committed capital to Skild AI, Bloomberg reports.
Samsung has recently taken similar minority stakes in robotics startups such as Physical Intelligence, which focuses on robotic control algorithms. According to Bloomberg, the giant also holds the largest share in Rainbow Robotics, a firm focused on humanoid robots, and plans to launch a domestic robot named Ballie later this year in collaboration with Google.

Bloomberg says that despite Samsung viewing some of Skild's capabilities as lagging behind other options on the market, the investment signals growing confidence in the startup's long-term potential.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Physical AI Becomes a Billion-Dollar Bet</h2>
Robotics is evolving into one of the most competitive and capital-intensive arenas in tech, with Apple (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) Meta (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), Alphabet&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>, GOOGL)) Google, Amazon, and Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) all accelerating work on consumer and humanoid robotics platforms, Bloomberg says.
With heavyweight investors now backing its vision, Skild AI may be emerging as a major rival in the race to bring adaptable, intelligent robots into real-world environments at scale.

Nvidia And Samsung Back $4.5B Robotics Startup Skild AI With $35M As SoftBank And Jeff Bezos Drive Push Into Consumer Robots

When you use&nbsp;<a href="https://www.investopedia.com/ask/answers/difference-between-fundamental-and-technical-analysis/">fundamental analysis</a>&nbsp;to estimate the value of a stock, you have to make a lot of projections.
How quickly will the sales grow? Will profit margins expand or contract? What will the company's capital structure look like, and&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tker.co/i/84489088/a-bunch-of-ways-higher-interest-rates-are-bad">where will interest rates go</a>? Where will tax rates be in the future?
If the projections you put into your valuation model are off, then the value you calculate will be off. Analysts call this phenomenon "<a href="https://www.tker.co/p/price-sensitive-to-earnings-multiple-assumptions">garbage in, garbage out.</a>"
To demonstrate how difficult this exercise is, let's try projecting the sales for A1 Widgets Corporation, a hypothetical company that's the worldwide leader in selling indestructible widgets. Based on A1's order book, sales for widgets will grow for exactly five years. In the fifth year, everyone in the world who will ever need a widget will have one. From there, there will be no more demand for widgets, and the widget factories will close.
What will A1's sales look like after the fifth year?
If you said $0, then you'd be wrong.
Because A1's owners and management had the foresight to quietly gain a foothold in the emerging cloud infrastructure and AI technology businesses. As a result, the company will soon see more sales and growth than ever before. Earnings will eclipse what they made selling widgets. And the stock price will explode.
No, this was not a trick question.
There are countless examples of companies expanding into or outright pivoting to businesses that no one could've foreseen.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Buying a stock is about more than investing in a company's product &#x1f914;</h2>
Having a great product to sell isn't enough to have a business that'll generate a great return for shareholders for many years to come.
You also must have stellar management with a killer instinct for allocating capital.
Not only does management have to figure out how to sell the company's core product for growth and profitability, but they also have to be able to read the tea leaves and recognize when the tides of business are turning. Maybe the market for the product is saturated. Maybe the product is becoming obsolete. Maybe customer preferences are shifting with technological developments. Maybe there are other significant opportunities to pursue, and the company has both the finances and expertise to capitalize on them.
Most companies continually make subtle adjustments that often go largely unnoticed. Some completely overhaul their business.
Take Berkshire Hathaway, which was a textile company when Warren Buffett took over it in 1965. Not long after, Berkshire became an&nbsp;<a href="https://www.nationalindemnity.com/about-us/geico.html">insurance company</a>&nbsp;that also&nbsp;<a href="https://www.sees.com/about-us/corporate">sold candy</a>. Today, it's a diversified conglomerate selling everything from energy to airplane parts to underwear. And it has a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tker.co/p/warren-buffett-on-picking-stocks">massive stock portfolio</a>&nbsp;generating market-beating returns. (I discussed Berkshire's culture of change in a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tker.co/i/162841568/watch">recent appearance on Yahoo Finance</a>.)
Another famous example of a company that's undergone a total transformation is Netflix. The company defined change when it introduced DVD rentals by mail while many consumers were still walking the aisles of brick-and-mortar video stores. While it dominated the mail-based rental business, management quickly shifted its efforts and aggressively invested in streaming services and original content. In 2023, Netflix&nbsp;<a href="https://about.netflix.com/en/news/netflix-dvd-the-final-season">mailed its last DVD</a>. The&nbsp;<a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/NFLX/">stock</a>&nbsp;currently trades at an all-time high, with the company valued at over $500 billion.

Last week, I was on&nbsp;<a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/video/understanding-valuation-investors-often-miss-100002273.html">Yahoo Finance's "Stocks in Translation"</a>&nbsp;podcast with Jared Blikre and Sydnee Fried. (Catch it on&nbsp;<a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/video/understanding-valuation-investors-often-miss-100002273.html">Yahoo Finance</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/ie/podcast/understanding-valuation-what-investors-often-miss/id1749117130?i=1000712248093">Apple Podcasts</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/1C8YlWo91KwlJA9A7PZf3k">Spotify</a>, or&nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BCr8bSl53lE">YouTube</a>!) Jared brought up Apple, which generated&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apple.com/newsroom/pdfs/fy2024-q4/FY24_Q4_Consolidated_Financial_Statements.pdf">$96 billion in sales</a>&nbsp;from services.
Here's what I said about Apple during our discussion:
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">If we were having a conversation about valuations 25 years ago when Apple was only making desktop computers, [you would ask] how many computers can they sell before you hit a ceiling? And so if you&#8217;re only thinking about investing in a company that only makes computers, then yeah, it might not make sense to pay a premium on the stock that you&#8217;re buying. But if you can be a little bit more imaginative, and if you understand that this is a company that understands change and tweaks its business model as the world changes, and as it reaches a saturation point, then you can begin to imagine a path where a company can continue grow earnings like Apple has and turn into a multi-trillion dollar company.
</blockquote>
Apple's Mac computers account for less than a tenth of the company's sales. Meanwhile, phones, a category they didn't get into until 2007, account for about half of sales. Services account for about a quarter of sales.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">It's even harder than you think &#x1fae0;</h2>
Acknowledging that your best product has matured and may be on a path to obsolescence is a tough pill to swallow. That said, once you've come to this realization, the hard part is likely just beginning.
Those leading the change will inevitably be met with resistance, not just outside the company, but also inside the company, where many employees won't be ready to let go of the old way of doing things.
Even assuming you have the full buy-in of the company, who knows if you're pivoting in the right direction? You very well could be trading one failing business for another that's doomed to go sideways.
Of course, even the most successful companies have made many bets that have gone bad. The difference between companies that can and can't move past these failures is great risk management and the confidence of shareholders.
But if you fail enough times, you'll eventually lose the faith of the shareholders.
No one ever said any of this was easy.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How investors can play this &#x1f4b8;</h2>
Every publicly traded company is doing everything it can to make sure earnings will grow, perhaps in a way that leads to market-beating returns in the company's stock price.
<a href="https://www.tker.co/p/best-performing-stocks-experience-large-max-drawdowns">But many disappoint</a>.
Unfortunately, there isn't a surefire way to identify winners&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tker.co/p/spiva-persistence-2024-past-performance-no-guarantee">consistently</a>&nbsp;enough that you can build a portfolio that&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tker.co/p/spiva-2024-active-managers-underperform-benchmark">outperforms the market</a>.
One of the reasons for this is that over time, it's a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tker.co/p/warren-buffett-on-picking-stocks">minority of stocks with massive returns</a>&nbsp;driving the market's performance.
So, how can investors play this?
Historically, one of the best moves has been to buy broadly diversified index funds like those tracking the S&amp;P 500. While the diversification may limit your upside, it also makes it almost certain that you'll have exposure to the big winners, including the companies that successfully pivot their businesses in ways that create massive amounts of shareholder value.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A quick personal note…</h2>
The evolution of many companies isn't too dissimilar from the ups and downs many of us face in our lives.
As I recently shared with&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tker.co/p/sam-ro-on-joes-happy-hour-may-2025">Joe Fahmy on his podcast</a>, my entry to writing about markets was anything but planned and orderly. And over the span of my career, I experienced&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tker.co/p/backwards-financial-decisions">at least six major pay cuts</a>, including one big one that occurred after I got laid off.
Few of us are lucky enough to live a life where everything goes up and to the right in a smooth, straight line.
But most of us are on a non-linear path, whether by choice or because of forces outside our control.
The good news is that just because things don't go as planned doesn't mean we're doomed to spiral. Read enough biographies (and business case studies), and you'll eventually see that the most impressive people (and companies) were the ones who had to overcome many challenges by making big, unplanned changes.
Just a thought.
