Apple officially became the most valuable publicly traded company, beating ExxonMobil for the top spot. Yesterday Apple held it's tops spot when trading closed. Apple's value is currently sitting at $341.5 billion with Exxon falling to $341.4 billion.
The gap between the two seems to be slowly but surely widening thanks to the successful launch of the iPad 2 and the continued popularity of the iPhone 4.
It all happened after Apple's record breaking quarter which saw the Cupertino company become the worlds biggest smartphone manufacturer.
There's still more to come in this great Apple success story with the soon to be release iPhone 5.
