Apple (AAPL) is set to host its iPhone 16 launch event on September 9, with investors eagerly awaiting the unveiling of the next generation of smartphones, Apple Watches, and AirPods. Maxim Group managing director and senior consumer internet analyst Tom Forte joins Morning Brief to discuss the potential impact of this launch on the tech giant. Forte notes a specific challenge facing Apple this year: while the company will introduce new hardware in its latest iPhone upgrade cycle, consumers will need to wait for the updates related to Apple's artificial intelligence software dubbed "Apple Intelligence." Forte explains this could potentially delay sales for the tech giant in the near term as consumers might hesitate to purchase new devices until the software is released. #news #youtube #stockmarket About Yahoo Finance: Yahoo Finance provides free stock ticker data, up-to-date news, portfolio management resources, comprehensive market data, advanced tools, and more information to help you manage your financial life. - Get the latest news and data at finance.yahoo.com - Download the Yahoo Finance app on Apple (https://apple.co/3Rten0R) or Android (https://bit.ly/3t8UnXO) - Follow Yahoo Finance on social: X: http://twitter.com/YahooFinance Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yahoofinance/?hl=en TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@yahoofinance?lang=en Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/yahoofinance/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/yahoo-finance
