Bitcoin slid 10.25% for its worst month since April, while ether dropped 23.66% in its third monthly drawdown and worst month since June 2022. "It's not a pretty picture across the crypto landscape at the moment," said Rob Ginsberg, chart analyst at Wolfe Research. "Bitcoin is still stuck in a descending trading range as price gradually deteriorates off the March high. Historically, September is the worst month for bitcoin — and other markets too, like U.S. stocks. Bitcoin has been stuck in a range between $50,000 and $70,000 since April and is likely to stay there for another a month at least.

Needham sees Apple doubling its revenue growth by building out an advertising business. Analyst Laura Martin said the big technology company's single-digit revenue growth rate feels "increasingly at risk" over a three-year time horizon. Martin pointed to eMarketer data showing worldwide ad revenue should come in at just about $9.3 billion for Apple in the 2024 fiscal year. Selling connected TV ads on AppleTV+ could alone double the company's expected revenue growth rate of just 1% this year, Martin said. More broadly, she said advertising could help "reinvigorate" Apple's "anemic" revenue growth rate, while also accelerating free cash flow growth and upside to return on invested capital.
