what happened
The Wall Street Journal reports that Apple shares moved above the level associated with a $5 trillion market capitalization for the fifth time earlier today. The same occurred on four previous occasions—twice in July and twice in September.
However, Apple has not yet ended a trading day with a market value above $5 trillion, according to Dow Jones Market Data. The shares recently traded at $340.45 and must close above $342.60 to reach that milestone. They touched $342.63 during today’s session.
The report was published within The Wall Street Journal’s live event coverage. Its complete stream is available by searching for P/WSJL (WSJ Live Coverage).
why it matters
For markets, the distinction between an intraday move and a closing result is significant: Apple has reached the threshold five times, but has yet to secure the milestone at the end of a session.
