    Apple’s Strong Services Growth And iPhone Pricing Power Fuel Analyst’s Confidence Despite Tariff Risks – Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL)

    Rosenblatt analyst Barton Crockett has maintained a Buy rating and a $263 price target on Apple Inc AAPL. Apple’s fiscal second-quarter earnings report after markets close today will be an exercise in navigating policy minefields, Crockett wrote in a research note published Thursday.

The Giants will be one of two teams to not option a 1st round pick they drafted, and the only team not to option a top-10 pick. Offensive tackle Evan Neal was taken with the No. 7 overall pick, and has been an absolute disaster since he arriving. A decent run blocker, Neal has…
