Smart Money Shifts From Tesla to Apple on Valuation and Cash Returns

Industry
โดย Yahoo Finance·Read original
Summary · why it matters

Investors are rotating from Tesla to Apple, favoring Apple's lower valuation and robust capital returns over Tesla's story-driven promises. Tesla trades at 416 times earnings with a 3% revenue decline and 9% drop in deliveries, while Apple trades at 38 times earnings with 17% revenue growth and an eighth consecutive earnings beat. Apple returned $32 billion to shareholders last quarter through buybacks and dividends, whereas Tesla offers neither. Prediction markets assign just a 0.5% probability to a Tesla robotaxi launch in California by mid-2026. Apple's services revenue hit a record $30.98 billion, and iPhone revenue reached $56.99 billion on strong demand for the iPhone 17 lineup.
