Microsoft displaced Apple and became the most valuable company in the world
The last time Microsoft became the most valuable company in the world was in 2021. In January of this year, the situation repeated itself, but not for long: Microsoft overtook Apple in terms of market capitalization for a while and took the first place, but then dropped back to second place. Almost a month has passed, and Microsoft is once again the most expensive company in the world.
The company ended the week at a price of $420.55 per share (+1.56% on Friday). As a result, Microsoft’s market capitalization is currently $3.124 trillion.
This is an absolute record among all companies. The previous record was set by Apple: On July 31, 2023, its market capitalization reached $3.09 trillion. Now it is $2.916 trillion.
In addition, the top 10 includes Alphabet (Google), Amazon, NVIDIA, Meta (Facebook), and TSMC.
