It has become a volatile week of trading for the maker of iPhones after Monday’s 4-for-1 stock split, the fifth since Apple became a company that is publicly-traded 1980.
Pre-split, Apple was the largest user that is weighted of Dow Jones Industrial Average representing almost 12% of the 30 members. However, the split prompted a shake-up for the Dow, which catapulted United Health, Residence Depot, Salesforce and Amgen towards the largest members being weighted.
That translated to a loss of roughly $180 billion in the iPhone maker’s market capitalization. It’s the biggest loss that is one-day value for any company ever, but nonetheless makes Apple with an industry cap of well over $2 trillion. Big figures are fun.
