Apple Inc. (NYSE:AAPL) has officially crossed the $4 trillion market capitalization threshold as of October 28, 2025. This milestone cements Apple’s position as the world’s third-most valuable company, trailing Nvidia and Microsoft in the ever-competitive race of Big Tech valuations. The achievement comes on the back of surging demand for its latest iPhone 17 lineup, growing investor optimism around Apple’s artificial intelligence initiatives, and continued strength across its services ecosystem.
Here’s a snapshot of key moments:
- January 2022: First company to hit $3 trillion, fueled by pandemic-era demand for devices and services.
- Mid-2024: Surpasses $3.5 trillion amid AI enthusiasm and strong iPhone sales.
- October 2025: Reaches $4 trillion.
In recent quarters, the iPhone 17 lineup has reignited investor confidence, particularly as data suggests stronger-than-expected demand in China and the U.S. The company’s latest phones — coupled with updates to the Apple Watch and MacBook lineup — have contributed to a wave of positive sentiment on Wall Street.
Meanwhile, Apple’s services division, which includes the App Store, iCloud, Apple TV+, and Apple Music, continues to deliver stable, recurring revenue. This balance between cyclical hardware sales and steady service income has been instrumental in pushing Apple toward the $4 trillion threshold.
