Gibbs also pointed out that Apple's stock also remains around 5 percent below Wall Street's consensus price target.

Ari Wald of Oppenheimer offered a technical look at the stock. Also speaking as a guest on "Trading Nation," he noted that Apple's chart looks bullish and there is room for a "sustainable breakout" and investors should still be buyers.

Specifically, Wald highlighted the rising 200-day moving average while the chart also shows a "striking similarity" to prior trends when Apple's stock gained.

He explained:

"Another reason why we think it goes higher is just the similarities to how this stock traded back in the second half of 2013, into 2014; that after a year of decline, you can see in that prior period, that the 200-day started to push higher, pull back to that 200-day, great buying opportunities, and then that final inflection which really marked the sustainable turn. We're seeing very similar price action."
