what happened
Apple's shares finished Wednesday at a record, lifting the company's market value to $5.005 trillion, according to Dow Jones Market Data cited by Seeking Alpha. That makes Apple the second company to reach that level on a closing basis, after Nvidia, which is the only other firm in that bracket. The iPhone maker had topped $5 trillion intraday six times before but had never closed above it.
The milestone also marks the end of Tim Cook's time as chief executive and sets a demanding benchmark for incoming CEO John Ternus.
why it matters
The move underlines how heavily a handful of mega-cap technology stocks weigh on major indexes. With leadership changing, investors will be watching how Apple's valuation holds up under new management.
