Just two years after Apple became the first publicly listed U.S. company with a $1 trillion stock market value, the iPhone maker has now topped $2 trillion (?212 trillion).
The Cupertino, California-based company¡¯s shares briefly rose to as high as $468.65 on Wednesday, equivalent to a market capitalization of $2.004 trillion.
Buoyed by bets on the long-term success of the country¡¯s biggest tech names in a post-coronavirus world, Apple¡¯s shares have surged since blowout quarterly results in July that saw the iPhone maker eclipse Saudi Aramco as the world¡¯s most valuable listed company. Apple¡¯s stock is up about 57 percent so far in 2020.
