Apple hits $3 trillion!
Apple's been sprinting toward a $3 trillion market cap, and on Monday it finally crossed the finish line.
While AAPL pulled back slightly as the day wore on, to close just under $3 trillion, becoming the first publicly traded U.S. company to achieve that milestone remains an incredible accomplishment.
What a way to start 2022!

AAPL stock topped out at $182.88 a share Monday before dropping slightly, bringing the market cap back below the $3 trillion milestone. It closed at $182.01, leaving Apple’s market cap at an astonishing $2.99 trillion. But it continued to climb once again in after-hours trading.

Apple will launch a second generation of AirPods Pro in the fall, according to an analyst who’s also a reliable tipster. The upgraded earbuds reportedly will offer better sound than the current version, and will bring other changes, too.
