<p>Roommates, it’s official!! After months of tech and financial experts closely monitoring when it would happen,<a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/students-are-apparently-using-apples-new-ios-15-live-text-feature-to-cheat/"> Apple</a> is now the first company in the world to ever be valued at $3 TRILLION dollars! You’ll recall that Apple&#8217;s market value first crossed the $1 trillion threshold in August 2018 and passed $2 trillion in August 2020.</p>
<p>It was only a matter of time before massive <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2022/01/03/investing/apple-three-trillion-dollar-market-cap/index.html?utm_term=link&;utm_content=2022-01-03T19%3A04%3A08&;utm_source=twcnnbrk&;utm_medium=social">technology company</a> Apple reached another major milestone—and this time it involves trillions! It was recently confirmed that for the first time in history a company is valued at $3 trillion dollars…and that company is none other than Apple. The company officially made history earlier today when its market value finally topped a $3 trillion, also making it the first publicly traded company ever to be worth that much.</p>

<p>Following the announcement of its new market value, shares of Apple stock briefly rose to about 3% higher than normal for an all-time record of $182.88, surpassing the $182.85 per share it needed to be worth $3 trillion.</p>
<p>Additionally, in 2021 Apple shares were up nearly 35% due to consumers increasing demand for company products. Sales for the new iPhone 13, subscriptions for Apple Music, Apple TV+, iCloud and its popular App Store all increased within the past year to help the tech giant cross the historic financial threshold.</p>
<p>Sales previously skyrocketed nearly 30% to more than $83 billion in the fall 2021 quarter back in September. Also, in case you didn’t know, Apple has a staggering $191 billion in cash.</p>
