The journey from 1 trillion took almost two years
In August 2018, Apple became the first company with a capitalization of $ 1 trillion. After that, the company was caught up and even overtaken by Microsoft and Amazon, and for the past two years, this trio has periodically changed places.

Apple costs more than $ 1.5 trillion
But another important mark first again took Apple. In just a few days, the company’s shares grew by 10%, which allowed the Cupertino giant to achieve a capitalization of over $ 1.5 trillion. At the moment, the figure is 1.53 trillion, while Microsoft – 1.49 trillion.
At the same time, Apple can be called the first with one huge reservation: the first one, not counting the oil giant Saudi Aramco, which, with access to the stock exchange last year, was immediately valued at more than $ 2 trillion.
