As of my last knowledge update in
January 2022, I do not have the latest information on the real-time stock
market values or rankings of Microsoft and Apple.
The valuation and ranking of
companies can fluctuate based on various factors such as stock prices, market
conditions, and financial performance.
Both Microsoft and Apple have
historically been among the most valuable companies globally, and their
positions in terms of market capitalization can change over time.
Factors influencing these changes
include product releases, financial reports, market trends, and overall
economic conditions.
To obtain the most current and
accurate information on the valuation and ranking of Microsoft and Apple, I
recommend checking reputable financial news sources, stock market websites, or
the latest financial reports from the companies themselves.
Jan 10 (Reuters) - A recent dip in
Apple's (AAPL.O) stock over worries about iPhone sales has left the Silicon
Valley tech heavyweight in danger of being overtaken by Microsoft (MSFT.O) as
the world's most valuable company. Fresh worries about smartphone demand have
pushed Apple's shares down 4% so far in 2024 after rallying 48% last year.
Microsoft is up about 2% year to date after surging 57% in 2023.
Apple dipped 0.4% on Wednesday,
while Microsoft added 1.6%, further eroding the iPhone maker's lead. Apple's
stock market value is now at $2.866 trillion, compared to Microsoft's $2.837
trillion value.
Apple's market capitalization peaked
at $3.081 trillion on Dec. 14, while Microsoft's value reached as much as
$2.844 trillion on Nov. 28. IPhone sales
in China dropped 30% in the first week of 2024,
Jefferies analysts said in a client
note this week, adding to signs of growing competitive pressures from Huawei
[RIC:RIC:HWT.UL] and other domestic rivals.
Sales of Apple's Vision Pro
mixed-reality headset start on Feb. 2 in the United States, marking Apple's
biggest product launch since the iPhone in 2007. However, UBS in a report on
Monday estimated that Vision Pro sales would be "relatively
immaterial" to Apple's earnings per share in 2024.
