Betting against Apple (AAPL) rarely works out for long. After a shaky start to 2026, shares have come roaring back, and the iPhone maker is once again the world's most valuable company.
Recall that at one point last year, AAPL stock lost as much as 30% of its value. Shares soon went on a remarkable run, adding about $1.6 trillion to the company's market cap in only eight months.
