List of corporations by market capitalization
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The following is a list of publicly traded companies having the greatest market capitalization, as well as government-owned corporations by estimated market value.
Market capitalization is calculated from the share price (as recorded
on selected day) multiplied by the number of shares issued. Figures are
converted into USD millions (using rate from selected day) to allow for comparison.
Some state-owned companies are far larger than even the largest public corporation. For example Saudi Aramco's value is estimated from $781 billion [1] to $7 trillion USD, more than a dozen times the size of any companies on this list making it the world's most valuable company.[2]
On August 22, 2012 Apple Inc. closed at a record high share price of $668.87.[43] With 936,596,000 outstanding shares (as of June 30, 2012),[44] it had a market capitalization of $627.00 billion. The prior record has been held by Microsoft since December 30, 1999 when it reached an intraday high share price of $119.94.[45] With 5,160,024,593 outstanding shares (as of November 30, 1999),[46] it had a market capitalization of $618.9 billion. Adjusting for inflation to 2012, Microsoft's market capitalization would be even $846 billion.[42]
Some state-owned companies are far larger than even the largest public corporation. For example Saudi Aramco's value is estimated from $781 billion [1] to $7 trillion USD, more than a dozen times the size of any companies on this list making it the world's most valuable company.[2]
