Apple starts 2022 with a record: big tech runs on the New York Stock Exchange and exceeds three trillion dollars in market capitalization.

Rising above $ 182.85 per share, the Cupertino giant is the first company to break this threshold, just over a year after exceeding two trillion billion.

Since the beginning of 2021, the company founded by Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne has gained 38%, with its stocks more than tripled from the lows reached in March 2020.

Since the beginning of October alone, Apple's market capitalization has risen by $ 700 billion, with investors continuing to bet on its products' popularity and balance sheet strength.

In particular, much of the US company's success is linked to the growing sales of iPhones and related services.

Currently the second largest company by capitalization is Microsoft, which is worth 2.5 trillion dollars, followed by Alphabet (Google) with 1.9 trillion and Amazon with 1.800.

In the first session of the year on Wall Street, Tesla also recorded excellent performances.

The electric car giant led by Elon Musk, the richest man in the world according to the ranking compiled by Bloomberg with assets of 273.5 billion dollars, gained 12.13%, with better-than-expected results. In fact, in the fourth quarter the company delivered 308,600 vehicles for a total of 936,000 cars in 2021, 87% more than the previous year's levels. Numbers that confirm the solidity of the company.
