Apple shares hit a new record high

   The conference that Apple has prepared for tomorrow seems to have aroused the interest of investors because yesterday on the American stock exchange the company's shares reached a new record ending the day at $424.70. This is not the highest value reached by the shares during a trading day, but it is the highest value reached by them at the end of a trading day. This year Apple's shares did not fall below the value of $400 and it seems that this will not change because the iPad 3 is to be launched in March and it will certainly increase the attention on the company from Cupertino.

   At the moment, the value of the stock market capitalization of the Apple company places it on the 2nd place in the list of the most valuable companies in the USA, behind those of Exxon Mobil and far ahead of the Microsoft company, which ranks third.
