Alphabet (Google) has officially surpassed Apple to claim the position of the second-most valuable company in the world, according to the latest market capitalization rankings.
Based on the displayed data, Alphabet now holds a market capitalization of $3.964 trillion, edging ahead of Apple’s $3.801 trillion.
The shift comes as Google shares rose 1.85%, with the stock trading at $328.42, while Apple shares declined 1.61%, trading at $256.16.
The ranking change reflects a single-day divergence in performance between the two technology giants. Google moved up one position in the global market cap leaderboard, while Apple slipped down one spot, placing it third overall.
This marks a notable reshuffle at the very top of global equity markets, highlighting how short-term price movements in mega-cap stocks can quickly alter leadership among the world’s most valuable companies.
