Here's what you need to know before Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference 2025.

USA TODAY will also provide live coverage.
What might be revealed at WWDC 2025?
Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reported that Apple is preparing a modest rollout of artificial intelligence features, targeting WWDC 2026 to make a larger splash.
Gurman wrote in the Power On newsletter that the most significant AI announcement this year will be the opening of Apple's Foundation Models to third-party developers.
He noted that the move is being made in hope of spurring the creation of new AI features and apps to help Apple catch up in the artificial intelligence market.
Gurman also reported that Apple appears set to add a centralized gaming app in the next iOS update.
He indicates the app will be preinstalled with the update and will be a place for users to launch games, find new titles, view leaderboards and communicate with other players.
"The new app will serve as a Game Center replacement, and is more ambitious," Gurman wrote. "But it's unlikely to shake up the industry."
iOS naming system to change with update: Reports
Apple appears set to change the naming system for iOS on Monday, according to Gurman.
The company will move from numbering operating system updates sequentially to numbering them by year in a manner similar to the way car models are identified. Under the new system, the Monday update will be iOS 26 instead of iOS 19.
Gurman also reported that the Mac operating system will be named Tahoe after the Californian forest.

Down 21%, Should You Buy the Dip on Apple Stock? The Answer Might Surprise You.

It's the combination of products and services that has made Apple one of the best businesses on Earth. Ongoing uncertainty surrounding the tariff situation adds to investor concerns. At the current valuation, Apple stock provides zero margin of safety. 10 stocks we like better than Apple › Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) shares are down 18% in 2025 (as of June 6). This makes Apple the worst-performing "Magnificent Seven" constituent this year, besides Tesla. Investors are probably concerned about tariff uncertainty and the company's slow progress with artificial intelligence (AI). The stock is currently 21% below its peak. So, it has some work to do to get back to its former glory. Legendary investor Warren Buffett and his conglomerate, Berkshire Hathaway, have sold a sizable chunk of their shares in the past several quarters. However, should you go against the Oracle of Omaha's moves and buy the dip on Apple stock? I think the answer might surprise you. I mention Buffett because many individual investors like to follow his buy and sell decisions. Clearly, when Berkshire first bought Apple in early 2016, they must've thought the tech giant was a high-quality enterprise. It's not hard to see why. Apple's brand is arguably the most recognizable in the world. This position wasn't created overnight. It took years and years of introducing truly exceptional products and services, that were well designed and incredibly easy to use, on a global scale. Apple is an icon, to say the least. That brand has helped drive Apple's pricing power. And this supports the company's unrivaled financial position. Apple remains an unbelievably profitable business. It brought in $24.8 billion in net income in the latest fiscal quarter (Q2 2025 ended March 29). Apple's products and services are impressive on their own. However, it's the combination of both of these aspects that creates the powerful ecosystem. Consumers are essentially locked in, which creates high barriers for them to switch to competing products. This favorable setup places Apple in an enviable position from a competitive perspective. Despite Apple's market cap of nearly $3.1 trillion, which might make some investors believe it's immune to external challenges, this business is dealing with some notable issues recently. There are three that immediately come to mind. The first problem is that Apple's growth engine seems to be decaying. Net sales were up less than 7% between fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2024. And they're up just over 4% through the first six months of fiscal 2025. According to management, there are likely over 2.4 billion active Apple devices across the globe. That number continues to rise with every passing quarter, but you get an idea of how ubiquitous these products are. Plus, the maturity of the iPhone, now almost two decades into its lifecycle, might lead to limited opportunities to further penetrate markets. Critics can also call out Apple's slow entrance into the AI race. For example, we won't see an AI update to Siri until next year, a launch that was delayed. At the same time, it seems like other companies are moving rapidly to win the AI race. Lastly, Apple has been and could continue to be drastically impacted by the tariff situation. China, which has gotten the most attention from President Donald Trump during the ongoing trade tensions, has been a manufacturing powerhouse for Apple. The business is being forced to shift its supply chain around to minimize the impact. Apple CEO Tim Cook said that the situation makes it challenging to forecast near-term results. Even though this stock trades 21% off its peak, investors aren't really getting a bargain deal here. The price-to-earnings ratio is 32 right now. That's not cheap for a company whose earnings per share are only expected to grow at a compound annual rate of 8.8% between fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2027. In my view, there's zero margin of safety. If you're an investor who wants to generate market-beating returns over the next five years, I don't think you should buy Apple today. Before you buy stock in Apple, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the for investors to buy now… and Apple wasn't one of them.

Stock futures are little changed on Sunday evening with trade talks, inflation data on deck in week ahead: Live updates

U.S. equity futures were mostly flat on Sunday evening with the S&P 500 trading near a record high and a busy week of potential market-moving news ahead. S&P 500 futures added less than 0.1%. Nasdaq 100 futures gained less than 0.1%, while futures tied to the Dow Jones Industrial Average ticked up 27 points, or less than 0.1%. The move in futures comes after all three of the major indexes notched their second-straight winning week. The S&P 500 closed above the 6,000 level for the first time since Feb. 21, and is now less than 3% away from its record closing high. Chris Verrone, chief market strategist Strategas, said Friday on "Closing Bell" the rally shows that concerns about tariffs and the U.S. economy are easing among many traders and investors. "The message of the market is still one that is largely pretty constructive here," Verrone said, mentioning S&P 500 hitting a three-month high. "Maybe most importantly, cyclicals continue to hum along. I know the data on balance has been softer, but the market's saying ignore it. Cyclicals making new highs versus defensives says, 'Hey, the economy's largely OK here,' " he added. The coming week will bring plenty of opportunities to either reinforce or undermine the market's confidence. On Monday, officials from the U.S. and China are expected to hold trade talks in London, President Donald Trump announced Friday. In the U.S., Apple's 2025 Worldwide Developer Conference kicks off on Monday. The tech giant's stock has been an area of weakness this year, sinking more than 18%. Inflation data is expected to be a key topic later in the week. The latest consumer price index is due out on Wednesday, followed by the producer price index on Friday. Traders will be looking for clues as to how the current tariff rates are flowing through the economy. A new consumer sentiment reading from the University of Michigan — which includes data around inflation expectations — is due out on Friday. Futures were calm when trading resumed on Sunday evening, with the three main futures contracts drifting marginally higher. — Jesse Pound The communication services group was the top performing sector in the S&P 500 last week, gaining 3.19%. The sector's three-biggest stocks — Alphabet , Meta Platforms and Netflix — all finished higher on the week. Stock chart icon The communications services group was a strong performer last week. Meanwhile, consumer staples was the worst performing sector, sinking 1.57%. Small caps were another bright spot, as the Russell 2000 gained 3.19% for its eighth positive week in 9. — Jesse Pound, Christopher Hayes
