Apple could command higher multiple if services business grows, says analyst RBC analyst Amit Daryanani penned an upbeat note about Apple Inc.'s AAPL, -1.53% services business on Monday, writing that he believes investors preoccupied with iPhone unit sales aren't paying enough attention to Apple's ability to generate revenue from current users.
