Apple iPhone 17 Processor Will Beat Expectations, It's Claimed

Apple iPhone 17 Processor Will Beat Expectations, It's Claimed

Forbes3 days ago
Apple's next big release will be the iPhone 17 series. A new report about the processor on board reverses previous rumors — and it's good news.
Apple iPhone 16 — will this year's model have last year's processor?
The iPhone 17 series will be revealed in early September (read this for the exact expected date) and there have already been reports of a new Dynamic Island, a differently placed Apple logo, a bigger iPhone 17 Pro Max and faster recharge speeds (revealed by accident).
But one rumor has persisted about the processor which the base iPhone 17 model will carry. Jeff Pu, a respected analyst at GF Securities, has previously said that the iPhone 17 will have the same Apple A18 processor found in the iPhone 16. That's unlike the other models expected this fall: the iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max and a new slim model rumored to be called the iPhone 17 Air.
Those phones are believed to carry various versions of the Apple A19 and Apple A19 Pro chips.
However, in a new investor note, spotted by MacRumors, Pu has now changed direction on this. "We now expect the iPhone 17 model to be equipped with A19 (vs. earlier expectation of A18)," Pu said in the note.
This makes a lot more sense. Apple has on one previous occasion carried over a processor from one generation to the next, but the move raised concerns for some users. The iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Pro used the A15 Bionic chip, and this continued to the iPhone 14, while the iPhone 14 Pro housed the A16 Bionic.
The introduction of the A19 across the board for the iPhone 17 range is promising. That said, Apple has an outstanding track record for delivering processors which are fast and reliable performers. So, whatever the name of the processor, it's likely to be up to the task.
There's another reason why this report makes sense: if there is an entry-level iPhone 17e released next spring, it will be able to match the iPhone 17 with an A19 chip: putting an A18 chip in a phone released in 2026 might sound a bit old-fashioned.

Why the AI stock bubble may be just getting started

Valuations for the biggest stocks in the S&P 500 (^GSPC) are starting to look stretched, raising fresh concerns about concentration risk. Chad Morganlander, senior portfolio manager at Washington Crossing Advisors, breaks down why we may be in the early stages of a bubble and how artificial intelligence (AI) hype fits into long-term expectations. To watch more expert insights and analysis on the latest market action, check out more Opening Bid here. Are we witnessing another tech stock bubble? I put this to Apollo chief economist Torsten Slok. Here's what he said. I do think that we'll have a lot of growth, but it looks somewhat extreme to me that the valuations for those significant big stocks in the S&P 500 which make up such a big share of the overall S&P 500 is at these very high levels relative to where we were in the IT bubble where the valuations of the 10 biggest companies in the S&P was a lot lower. So, I do think that there is a bubble from a PE ratio perspective, because these companies have just become so expensive and it's become so concentrated for investors that it's really no longer diversified investment to buy the S&P 500. All right. Still with me is my round table Chad Morganlander of Washington Crossing Advisors and Yahoo Finance senior reporter Alexandra Canal. And Ines Ferre. Chad, over to you on this one. You never know if you're in a bubble until after the fact, right? Yeah, correct. And in fact, uh, your, your clip there was correct. Uh, you are sitting at a 23 multiple. So you during the earlier stages of a bubble. Living through the 90s, one must recall that the S&P earnings or PE multiple got over 30 times, uh, in 1999. Uh, so there will be, look, when you look back at this time, there will be a lot of mal investment made, some silly investment ideas that, that didn't work out. But over the long run, over the next 10 to 15 years, uh, this excitement about artificial intelligence is justified. It's just a matter of the, the, the, the valuation gap and where that valuation gap meets, uh, the reality of, of earnings. Well, it sounds like, Chad, if you want to compare it to the internet craze, we still have more to go in terms of valuations, at least from a PE perspective. Well, that could be true. Uh, again, you know, buyer beware on the type of companies that you're buying. Uh, at Washington Crossing Advisors, we own Alphabet, for example. That's trading at roughly about a 17 times multiple when you look at, when you take, when you take away cash. Um, full disclosure, not only do we own it in our portfolio, but I personally own it. But that company has a full competitive stack to go against OpenAI. Ines, I haven't covered a good bubble in a while. Uh, the last one I covered was cannabis a couple years ago. Every day, cannabis stocks would go up until, well, they did it. Maybe it's time, uh, we do get a bubble bursting and maybe it does start with AI. And we could, for sure. Uh, this is probably different than cannabis, uh, because it is touching all sorts of industries. I mean, if you take a look right now at the different sectors of the S&P 500, you are seeing industrials, which is leading the way. Think big construction, factories, AI centers. Uh, you're seeing tech. You're seeing utilities, which is usually the sleepy part of the market. Utilities is, uh, outperforming the broader market. And then, of course, you're seeing financials as well. So you can tell that it is touching all parts of the market right now. And if you think in the future, like what Chad was saying earlier, um, look, long term, this will be a huge productivity boom for the entire economy. Uh, because just imagine having endless amounts of workers at your disposal, endless amount of AI bots that are doing work for you. And this is not just about AI bots, then you're talking about, uh, later on, having robots doing everything. I mean, this is going to be a massive, massive productivity move. But yes, we could be in a bubble right now. We will see, we would see it deflate, but then we would see, uh, exponential growth. Right on, Ines. I need a thousand personal digital assistants. Thank you. Thank you. And I'm going to get those someday because of AI.
