I told you yesterday that Apple set a new record in terms of market capitalization, but also the price of shares on the American stock market, the company is now worth 661 billion dollars, the price of one share being $112.82. The record value set by Apple prompted Reuters to compare it with the entire Russian stock market to find that Apple is worth more than all companies listed on the Russian stock exchange, the difference between its market capitalization and that of the Russian stock market being enough to buy almost 150 million terminals 6 iPhone Plus, that is, a terminal for every Russian.
All companies listed on the Russian stock exchange have an estimated market capitalization of $531 billion, $130 billion less than that of Apple, and the difference is close to that of IBM. The value of Russia's stock market fell by $234 billion following the outbreak of the war in Ukraine, and this puts the country's economy in a rather delicate situation, especially if we look closely at this comparison. This is the first time that Apple's stock market value is compared to the value of an entire country's bus, and the comparison tells us a lot about the evolution of the Cupertino company.
