Apple - $325 billion market capitalization

Although last month Steve Jobs left the management of the Apple company and the stock markets recorded a 6% drop in Apple shares, today the company posted an important increase. Apple shares are quoted at $352 per share and continuously increasing, Apple being the most "valuable" company with a technological profile in the world. The value of the stock market capitalization of the Apple company today reached the level of 325 billion dollars, being the second in the world after Exxon whose stock market capitalization value is quoted somewhere around 417 billion dollars.

Against a broader up market, Apple broke two barriers in trading today (as you can see on the ticker to the right). The world's most valuable tech company and second largest company by market cap overall is trading at over 352 as of this writing which puts its market cap north of $325 Billion. Perhaps related, Susquehanna upped their AAPL target to $465 today.

It seems that the recent release of the Verizon iPhone 4 and the publication The Daily have brought the company back to the top of the growth charts on the international stock market and probably by next year Apple will become the most valuable company in the world in terms of stock market capitalization.
