Apple: The most valuable company in the world

In just 10 years, Apple Inc.’s stock price has increased by more than 8,000 percent making it the most valuable company in history.

The infographic below from Statista illustrates the tremendous growth of the company, detailing how its market capitalization compares to that of other massive public and media companies such as: Exxon Mobil, Microsoft, Wall-Mart, Google, Facebook, HP, Yahoo, eBay, Amazon and more.

Impressive to say the least.

I own stock in Apple so I am glad they are doing well. More important to me, however, is that they continue to offer great products for families and businesses to use. If they can continue to do the latter they will be very, very successful for years to come.
