Apple has become the second company to close at above $5 trillion in market capitalization, following Nvidia, as of its latest closing price. This achievement marks the first time Apple has maintained this valuation at the end of the trading day, surpassing its previous six intraday records. The company's current market cap stands at $5.005 trillion, as of a closing price of $342.96 per share.

While Apple briefly claimed the title of the world's most valuable company in July, Nvidia has since reclaimed the position, currently boasting a market cap of $5.33 trillion.
