Apple Poised to Monetize AI at WWDC 2025
Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) looks ready to kick off its AI monetization era with system-wide updates at WWDC 2025, Wedbush's Daniel Ives says, setting the stage for paid AI features across the Apple ecosystem. The keynote at 1 p.m. ET today at Apple Park will unveil '26 upgrades for macOS, iOS and iPadOS powered by Apple Intelligence, countering Street skepticism about a slow AI rollout. In his Monday note, Ives argued that WWDC marks the start of Apple's AI cash flow, not a mere feature demo, as the company layers new AI-driven capabilities into core OS updates. He expects details on Siri's deeper integration with Google's Gemini and OpenAI's ChatGPT, demonstrating how Apple will embed AI across native apps to drive user engagementand, ultimately, device upgrades when iPhone 17 ships next year. With over 100 million iPhones in China due for an upgrade, Ives also eyes an announcement on Apple's partnership with Alibaba (NYSE:BABA) to deploy AI services locally, a move he calls critical for unlocking growth in the world's largest smartphone market. Wedbush reiterates its Outperform rating and raises its 12-month price target to $270, noting that Apple's edge isn't in building the most advanced large language model but in toll-collecting'' on its vast hardware base. Apple's unmatched ecosystem ensures that any third-party AI app must run through Cupertino, highlighting how AI unlocks new services revenue without upending its product strategy. Why It Matters: WWDC's AI announcements could shift Wall Street sentiment, validating Apple's long-term AI strategy and fueling expectations for recurring software revenue beyond hardware sales. Investors will watch for concrete details on AI feature pricing, Siri-Gemini integrations and the Alibaba tie-up during today's keynote and in the follow-up developer sessions.

Why EchoStar Stock Is Falling Today
EchoStar has been under regulatory pressure over its use of the spectrum earmarked for a new nationwide cellular carrier. The company reportedly could consider a bankruptcy filing to help shield its spectrum licenses from the threat of revocation. 10 stocks we like better than EchoStar › Telecom and satellite company EchoStar (NASDAQ: SATS) is reportedly considering a bankruptcy filing to protect its spectrum licenses. Investors are not taking the threat lightly, sending EchoStar shares down as much as 15% at the open and down 8% as of 11 a.m. Eastern. EchoStar is a satellite television and communications company currently focused on growing a nationwide cellular business. The company owns Boost Mobile, the nation's fourth-largest wireless carrier, and is building out the network using its spectrum holdings. But regulators appear to be growing impatient with the company's progress. Reports surfaced last month that the Federal Communications Commission has opened an investigation into EchoStar's compliance with federal requirements to build out a nationwide 5G network according to milestones set in 2019. EchoStar responded with evidence that it is indeed building out the network as required, but the spectrum resources are valuable and coveted by several companies. Included in that list is SpaceX, whose chairman, Elon Musk, has complained about EchoStar's progress and demanded the spectrum be opened to other users, including SpaceX's Starlink. Late Friday, The Wall Street Journal reported EchoStar is considering a Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing as a way to shield its spectrum licenses from the threat of revocation. In theory, a filing would leave decisions about the spectrum up to a judge, not regulators. Given EchoStar's structure, it is not entirely out of the question that shareholders would get something out of a bankruptcy. But it is a very high-risk bet. In bankruptcy, equity holders have the least protection, and shares are often zeroed out. EchoStar declined to comment on the bankruptcy rumors, and a filing is far from certain. Political winds change direction quickly, and it is possible recent events in Washington could cause the FCC not to prioritize the EchoStar spectrum. If the company does file, debt holders are likely to capture a lot of the value of the reorganized company. There's a lot of risk to EchoStar right now, but also a lot of potential value if the company is allowed to continue on its path toward building Boost Mobile. Investors considering buying in should be prepared for further turbulence and limit EchoStar to a small part of a well-diversified portfolio.
