“We continue to recommend our positive AAPL vs negative SWKS catalyst watch events going into iPhone 15 launch,” they wrote. “AAPL stock has outperformed SWKS ~500bps relatively since early August.”
They noted that the recent US supply chain discussions point to a strong replacement cycle potential in the iPhone 12 installed base, with there being “excitement around ~30% faster charging on upgraded USB-C vs Lightning port.”
“US supply chain IP15 unit expectations remain ~85M (Citi 81M), however, the launch timing could move around depending on potential component manufacturing supply constraints,” concluded the analysts.
