Analysts at Morgan Stanley designated Apple their top pick, raised their price target to $273 a share and reiterated their buy-equivalent rating. Apple Intelligence, however, represents an entirely new technology with the potential change how we all interact with our devices. And notably, replacement cycles are at an all-time high of 4.8 years, Morgan Stanley estimated.
