Today, more financial history was made. Apple surpassed the One Trillion U.S. Dollar mark in value--the highest of any company in known history on this planet.
That's not to say that it is actually worth that, but that's quite a feat. They previously made the history books by being worth more than Exxon-Mobil, a fuel company.
It makes me feel a bit silly that I didn't put my US$2500 into Apple stock at $13.5 per share in 1995, instead of buying a computer. I could have had numerous computers by now, although I had, but for leftovers from a periodic sale of the stock.
Update: Amazon is likely the second to achieve such a status. If that happens, will Alexa laugh at most requests again?
What happened with all those old companies, such as General Electric?
