Apple and Microsoft have surpassed the $4 trillion market capitalization mark, with Apple securing its position as the third company to achieve this milestone, following Nvidia and Microsoft.
Microsoft first crossed the $4 trillion threshold in July, briefly slipping to $3.9 trillion before regaining it on Tuesday, driven by news of a new agreement with OpenAI. Apple shares closed at $269, marking a 0.1% gain on Tuesday, after hitting an all-time high of $269.89.
The company's stock has climbed 13% since September 9th, when the iPhone 17 series and iPhone Air launched. This turnaround is notable, as Apple's valuation has grown from $1 trillion in 2018 to $2 trillion in 2020, $3 trillion in 2022, and now $4 trillion in 2025.
Apple has joined the $4 trillion club.
