本周一，蘋果公司的市值歷史上首次短時(shí)突破8000億美元大關(guān)，成為這家全球最有價(jià)值企業(yè)的又一重大里程碑。

在分析師發(fā)布利好報(bào)告后，蘋果盤中漲幅一度超過(guò)3%，股價(jià)達(dá)到153.70美元的歷史最高點(diǎn)，該公司市值也升至8000億美元以上，隨后回落至該點(diǎn)位下方。

蘋果全天收升2.7%，報(bào)153.01美元，市值7978億美元。

周一早些時(shí)候，投資公司Drexel Hamilton分析師布萊恩?懷特發(fā)表了積極的研究報(bào)告，將蘋果的目標(biāo)價(jià)從185美元上調(diào)至202美元，對(duì)應(yīng)的市值超過(guò)1萬(wàn)億美元，投資者的精神為之一振。懷特承認(rèn)，蘋果可能需要另一重大利好，而它的“價(jià)值這幾年一直偏低，原因是投資者越發(fā)擔(dān)心蘋果可能重蹈以往消費(fèi)電子公司的覆轍。”

但懷特的態(tài)度依然樂(lè)觀，他認(rèn)為蘋果“已經(jīng)通過(guò)獨(dú)一無(wú)二的能力開發(fā)出了無(wú)縫銜接的硬件、軟件和服務(wù)，從而證明了自己的韌性”。

懷特的報(bào)告出爐前，蘋果披露了良莠不齊的季度業(yè)績(jī)，其中iPhone銷量未達(dá)到預(yù)期。iPhone占該公司總銷售額的很大一部分，而且分析師一直懷疑蘋果能否再推出一款可以跟iPhone抗衡的重量級(jí)消費(fèi)產(chǎn)品。

蘋果首席執(zhí)行官蒂姆?庫(kù)克將iPhone銷量下滑歸咎于泄密報(bào)道和有關(guān)今后新款iPhone的傳聞。他說(shuō)消費(fèi)者沒(méi)把手機(jī)升級(jí)到最新款的原因是他們預(yù)計(jì)今后的產(chǎn)品會(huì)更好。

蘋果市值遠(yuǎn)超第二名的情況已經(jīng)持續(xù)了一段時(shí)間。市值位居第二的是谷歌母公司Alphabet。截至本周一，Alphabet的市值為6530億美元，緊隨其后的是微軟，市值5320億美元。（財(cái)富中文網(wǎng)）

Apple's market capitalization briefly crossed the $800 billion threshold for the first time on Monday, marking another major milestone for the world's most valuable company.

Following a positive analyst report, Apple’s shares (aapl) rose over 3% in midday trading to a record high of $153.70. At one point, the company's market value rose above $800 billion before retreating below that barrier.

Apple's shares closed up 2.7% for the day at $153.01, good for a market value of $797.8 billion.

Investors were buoyed by a positive research note early in the day from analyst Brian White of investment firm Drexel Hamilton, in which he raised his price target for Apple shares from $185 to $202, implying a market value of over $1 trillion. White acknowledged the perception that Apple may need another big hit and that it’s “valuation has been depressed for years as investors grew concerned that Apple would fall victim to the missteps of consumer electronic companies of the past.”

However, White remained optimistic, arguing that Apple “has proven its resilience through its unique ability to develop hardware, software and services that work seamlessly together.”

The analyst's comments come after Apple recently reported mixed quarterly earnings in which it said it sold fewer iPhones than expected. The company’s flagship smartphone accounts for the bulk of its overall sales, and analysts have questioned whether the company can create another blockbuster consumer product that rivals the iPhone.

Apple CEO Tim Cook blamed the iPhone’s declining sales on leaked reports and rumors of future iPhone models, suggesting that consumers were not upgrading their phones to the latest model in anticipation that future models would be superior.

As it has for some time, Apple's market value far exceeds that of its closest rivals. Alphabet, the parent company of Google (goog, +0.77%), is the second most valuable company with a market cap of $653 billion as of Monday followed by Microsoft at $532 billion.
