Apple’s stock has been performing extremely well leading up to what should be a very exciting fall season for the company. New record highs are being achieved at incredible frequency, and the stock price and market cap just keep skyrocketing!

Twitter user @counternotions put the matter into perspective in a very eye opening manner:
As we start the day,
$MSFT +$GOOG +$AMZN +$FB = $627B,$AAPL = $633B.— Kontra (@counternotions) August 28, 2012
As of the market opening this morning, Apple was worth more than four of the leading tech titans combined: Microsoft, Google, Amazon, and Facebook! That’s some serious punch that AAPL is packing! Yowza!
