With a 5% stake in the giant - which he holds through his holding company - the Oracle of Omaha would earn quite a bit of money if it went into cashing in.

 

Of Buffett among the Topinn makers of the Apple miracle speaks a CNBC article that reports how, on paper, Buffett would earn, in fact, more than 120 billion dollars, in conjunction with the historical record of market capitalization grabbed by the Californian giant.

When Apple launched its flagship in January 2007, its market value amounted to $73.4 billion, compared to the $3 trillion tested the day before yesterday, Monday, January 3, 2022, the first session of the year ofall

By August 2018, Apple had become the first American company to be worth $1 trillion, taking 42 years to achieve this goal.

Just two years after reaching $1 trillion, the capitalization exceeded even $2 trillion. The last trillion, the third, grabbed the day before yesterday, was cashed after just 16 months and 15 days.

Apple yesterday discounted the sell-offs that fell on technology in the wake of the record jump in Treasuries rates , against a market value that fell around $2.99 trillion.
