Apple, the world's first trillion-dollar company, revises its Q2 profit expectations: Apple, the world's first trillion-dollar company in terms of market capitalization, has revised its expectations in quarter 2 of 2020. It is due to the deadly coronavirus that had killed as per official estimate until now more than 1886 people. Apple says that the slowdown is only temporary, and as usual, its primary objective is the health of its employees.
On August 2, 2018, when the Apple share was traded at 207.05 USD, it became the first trillion-dollar company on planet earth. It maintains that level and is at 1.3 trillion dollars with the share price at 325 US dollars now. It is more than the GDP of many countries and also more than the total stock value of many stock exchanges in the world.
This American tech giant was also in the news recently when IDC or international data corporation announced that Apple has a 75.6 % market share in the Indian premium segment during the October to December quarter. The premium segment is for above the 500 US dollar or Rs. 36,000 and above. It was due to the fantastic sales of its iPhone 11 and price reduction in its previous generation models.
