Trillion-dollar tech giant Apple (AAPL) built its reputation by turning simple ideas into category-defining products – from the iPhone to the Mac – while creating an ecosystem people rarely leave. And, over time, Apple events became more than launches.
Every year, when Apple Worldwide Developers Conference rolls around, it’s not just developers who tune in. Wall Street watches just as closely. Apple’s events have a habit of dropping hints about what’s coming next – sometimes subtle, sometimes headline-grabbing – and investors have learned to read between those lines.
