 |  Subject: Apple Now The Most Valuable Tech Company By $100 Billion; Google Closing In On Microsoft Tue Feb 15, 2011 7:27 pm | |
|  It’s hard to believe that it wasn’t even a year ago when I wrote the following post: What Happens When Apple Passes Microsoft In Value? Yes, When. It’s even harder to believe just how many people thought I was crazy for saying that — it happened
just two months later! And while plenty seemed to think that the
passing of the torch to Apple as the most valuable tech company would be
short-lived, let’s look at where we are today. As of market close this
afternoon, Apple is now a full $100 billion past Microsoft.Yes, Apple is the most valuable tech company in the world by $100
billion dollars. To put that in some perspective: the market cap of HP
is $105 billion. Apple is now worth an HP more than every other tech
company.When I wrote the initial post last March, Apple’s market cap was at
$208 billion, while Microsoft stood at $261 billion. By the time Apple
passed Microsoft in May, both had market caps around $227 billion. As of
today, Apple’s market cap is now $330 billion while Microsoft’s is $228
billion. In these past 9 months, Apple has gained $100 billion in
value. Microsoft? $1 billion.In fact, not only is it clear now that Microsoft will not be
re-taking the crown as the most-valuable tech company any time soon, but
they’re flirting with being knocked down to the number three — or even
number four spot. In the past year, while Microsoft’s stock is down
slightly, Google’s is up nearly $100-a-share. This has allowed the
search giant to surpass the $200 billion market cap themselves. And
they’re now just $28 billion away from Microsoft.To put it another way, Google is much closer to Microsoft in terms of
market cap than Apple was when I wrote that post last year. Another
killer quarter and Google may be able to take them down as well.Meanwhile, IBM is a little bit closer at $202 billion. Their stock is
up nearly 40 points in the past year. They have a shot of passing
Microsoft too.And just to pre-empt all the “market cap doesn’t mean anything”
comments that are inevitable, time has proven that it may mean
something. When Apple passed Microsoft last year, Microsoft was still
comfortably ahead of Apple in terms of both revenue and profit. Wall
Street didn’t care. Investors saw the writing on the wall. Sure enough,
by October, Apple rocketed past Microsoft in revenue for the first time about two decades. This part quarter, Microsoft was able to hold a narrow edge
in profit, but that is very likely to fall next quarter as well. Apple
is the most valuable tech company for a very good reason.Oh, and just in case you were wondering, Apple is still a little over
$90 billion away from becoming the overall most valuable public company
in the world. Exxon’s market cap stands at $422 billion — and the
stock, much like Apple’s, continues to be on a tear. | |
