The story so far
Bloomberg first reported that Apple hit a $5 trillion market value on July 28. The Guardian and others confirmed Apple as the second company to reach this milestone as investors move away from AI stocks.
The surge is attributed to strong iPhone demand, with Apple's stock at a record high, according to CNBC and AppleInsider. This development coincides with a significant moment for Apple, particularly following Tim Cook's last earnings call.
