Apple Stock Valuation Hinges on Future Cash Flows

Apple's stock price has reached new highs after delivering a 151.3% return over the past five years.

The question now is whether the current share price of $341.07 reflects the company's long-term cash generation potential.

The recent moves around Apple's health ecosystem, payments expansion, and AI features may support expectations for stickier customers and more durable cash flows.

However, higher memory and infrastructure costs could affect how much of that ultimately converts into free cash.
