Just how ginormous is Apple Inc. now?

As the iPhone-maker’s shares continue to set fresh record highs, its market cap is now above $765 billion. Combined with Exxon Mobil Corp.'s pullback over the past six months, Apple has pulled off the rare occurrence of being worth at least double any other publicly traded U.S. company. No. 2 Exxon’s market cap has eased to $374 billion.

You would, and do frequently. It's all part of your troll routine. You live for the flame war.

I’m the one who is on the Apple threads because I like Apple products.

You’re the one who comes in here because you HATE Apple products. I think that says all one needs to know about who is the troll!

You love the flame war, and do everything you can to start one, every chance you get.

You love that "hater" label, don't you? What's next "Applephobic"? We've all seen that playbook.

How many times have you started with the name calling and then whined about a thread turning into a flame war?

You made and assigned the labels, and then justified your actions based on it, so you did it all yourself. Pathetic.

The APPLE-HATER CULT members justify their label totally on their own!

So, I post on Apple threads that I love Apple Products, and members of the APPLE-HATER CULT group come in and posts that they hate Apple Products and no one should like them and everyone is an idiot for liking Apple ... and it’s “all on me”? ... LOL ...

You guys are so hilarious!

Yep, it’s all you. You cultivate animosity. “Haters” are your measure of success.

You wouldn’t see it on the chart. You would have to do the math from the underlying data :-)

And actually I just held Texas flat YOY. If I removed Texas alltogether from the data in both years GDP increases by 1.7% versus the 1.8% for all 50 states.

Only in response to the APPLE-HATER CULT members.

Have all your cult members NOT SHOW UP on an Apple thread and see what happens ... :-) ...

If everyone you call an "Apple hater" didn't show up, what would happen is called and "echo chamber".

What you would have would be a normal discussion about Apple Products and what’s going on in the Apple Ecosystem ... something that the APPLE-HATER CULT members are unfamiliar with.

BUT ... THAT ... is definitely not what the APPLE-HATER CULT wants, so they must obsessively jump in ... :-) ...
