If anyone told me in 2007 that the company behind the first iPhone would become a $2 trillion company, I would have laughed it off. 

Well, colour me embarrassed as Apple blew past $2 trillion and became the first $3 trillion company. 

That’s 3 with 12 zeroes i.e., 3,000,000,000,000.

And the unbelievable part? It just took 16 months to make the jump.

Evidently, the pandemic has resulted in huge demand for tech in general as both Amazon and Netflix saw similar rises in their market valuation. 

Can someone lend me a time machine? I need it for totally legit purposes.
