This third place on the Fortune 500 list means that things are not going bad for Apple. Let us remember that last year and after being close for many years before the Cupertino company achieved for the first time in its history get un valor de mercado de 1 billón de dólares y esto evidentemente ayuda a escalar puestos en esta lista.
The Fortune 500 list is nothing more than a list published year after year by the Fortune media and in which the first and last names are given to the 500 largest US companies open to any investor based on its sales volume, so being in the top three is undoubtedly a real success for Apple.
IPhone sales don't help but Apple is still a multibillion dollar company
It is true that in recent quarters we cannot speak of spectacular iPhone or Mac sales, but it is also true that the company knows how to find those strengths that give it benefits such as the Apple Watch or lately its movements towards streaming content and services usually. Apple is expected to continue growing in the following years In all aspects and obviously the economic one is one of the main ones for investors and the company itself.
Since last year 2013, Apple has not left the top 10 of this Fortune 500 list so we can say that the work done by Tim Cook and the rest of the brand's executive team is being a real success. It has also been in the top 2014 since 5 and with this year in third place it is already the third time, getting the same place on the list in 2016 and 2017. Now Apple has to continue working to get to surpass the two companies in 2020 that you have just above this list are Walmart and ExxonMobil. In any case, the result obtained is good and we are sure that Apple will be happy about it.
