Apple Rated Sell Again After 20% Rally Stretches Valuation

Apple (AAPL) was downgraded again in a fresh analysis that called the stock a Sell, even after it rallied about 20% since the previous Sell call and nearly reclaimed the title of the world's most valuable company. The shares slipped 0.57% to $325.87 on Thursday.

AlphaScala's proprietary Alpha Score for Apple stands at 56 out of 100, a Moderate rating that reflects a balanced but cautious risk-reward profile at current levels.

The analysis pointed to stretched valuation as the core concern, arguing that the post-downgrade run has pushed the stock beyond what fundamentals support, despite recent product launches and momentum. No specific price target was stated.
