Apple‘s stock price rose after the release of new products. The new products made its market capitalization surpassed $1 trillion again on Wednesday. According to economic media CNBC.
The company’s stock closed at $223.59, up 3.18 percent from the previous day, with its market capitalization reaching $1.1 trillion.
It is not the first time that Apple’s market cap has exceeded $1 trillion. It once surpassed $1 trillion in market capitalization for the first time in August last year. Since then, however, it has failed to maintain its market capitalization of $1.1 trillion due to sluggish iPhone sales in China.
Yet, Bloomberg predicted that the new iPhone might still be missing out 90 million market of China. As it is not yet equipped with the 5G tech. Even though other phones released in the similar time such as Samsung’s and Huawei have all supported the 5G network.
The world’s second largest smartphone maker company also bought millions of its own shares. And as a result, the stock price in the market cap that has surpassed $1 trillion has risen further.
However, it is not the only company in the U.S. stock market with a $1 trillion total. Microsoft Corp.’s market cap was also tallied at $1.39 trillion as of the day, outpacing Apple Inc. by $290 billion.
