Apple world's most valuable company... again
Quote:
Apple's market cap was around $414 billion during trading on Thursday, with the company's stock up as high as $456.80 in the morning session. Exxon, meanwhile, saw shares slide more than 2 percent during the morning, sending its market cap to around $408 billion, following a disappointing earnings report.
The change made Apple once again the most valuable company in the world by market cap.

In other news, they are also the highest tech company on this year's Fortune 500 list, with profits higher than Hewlett Packard, Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Dell, Intel, and Facebook combined.

Because people really aren't but Samsung likes to make it seem that way.

Apple might be the only company on the planet that gets random customers excited that they made a huge profit off them because their devices don't cost that much to make... normally we'd be like "**** you guys, you assholes could lower your prices quite clearly" like we do with gas companies... but no, we're like "yasss rape our wallets some more & keep those third world employees working 36 hours and in suicide-proof factories, ilu"
That is Apple's true impact, enslaving some of the more fragile minds & lower self-esteem to identify their self worth through their brand - otherwise the GP would not give a damn about who is on top in the tech world, just like we ignore every other industry's top dogs. They're marketing geniuses. Not trying to shade, it's actually incredible.

I don't know why people are saying Apple is over when we get news of its success like this so often...

- iPhones are the same price on contract than all the other phones.
- Macs are built to last, and are built with high quality products that as a PC lover, I've been through 2 laptops and a netbook in the same time as one MacBook.
- iPad's are overpriced though especially storage costs.
It's like our faves. The ones that gross the most usually have expensive as **** tickets and yet we all go "omg our faves beating yours slay!" and yet really they could have offered the same thing for much less.
No matter what brand, person, image etc. people like to see things they like succeed more than things they don't. It's not for the "fragile" mind as Windows fans are the same when Windows is on top, Samsung fans like to rub it in that they sell more tech than Apple etc.
It's all the same.

Well, of course. With their overpriced gadgets and the iFlock buying everything Apple poops out of their ass, it's more than normal.
