"Look for institutional buying in Apple "- UBS
- UBS upgrades Apple to Buy from Neutral, bumps target to $650 from $540
- "While Apple's stock has improved, institutional ownership has not recovered. It peaked at about 73% in April 2012 and has fallen to under 64%. Our sense speaking with investors is that many are now equal or underweight Apple relative to their benchmark, which could result in new money supporting the stock. Apple fits the value description and with potential double-digit EPS growth in F14 could show up again as a growth story."
- "We think one or more of the following could boost the stock in the next year: i) the gross margin should be flat to up with iPad margins stabilizing and warranty accruals less of an incremental; ii) the imminent support of China Mobile along with NTT DoCoMo could aid the seasonally weak summer quarters; iii) the hire of Angela Ahrendts may provide an inspirational face to the company; and iv) new products should begin to renew faith in innovation, including wearables and iBeacon."
