Apple, Inc. was, for a moment, the most valuable public company in the world as measured by market capitalization. Apple's market cap briefly passed ExxonMobil today, reaching $341.55 billion in valuation. ExxonMobil was valued at $341.42 billion. Both stocks are fluctuating and Exxon is now more valuable again.
Apple didn't pass ExxonMobil by rocketing up in price, however. It merely hasn't fallen as far during the current market downturn. Both AAPL and XOM are significantly off their highs as the overall markets have dropped over the past couple weeks.
Today, Apple is having a strong day, up more than 4%, while Exxon is near flat.
At the time, Apple's stock was trading at $368.40, off 8% from its all-time high of $404 - but ExxonMobil had fallen farther, down 20% to $70.21 from just over $88.
