@bangerbangerbro Several have: AAPL, MSFT, AMZN, and GOOG is close. TSLA has a long way to go to that cap.

@bangerbangerbro Sure, I assumed it was self evident and the ticker symbol is more useful as it's what you type in for stock info--Apple, Microsoft, Amazon and Google. ;-)

@bangerbangerbro The stock price largely reflects not only past performance/profits but more so future expectations. "Market Capitalization" is simply the number of shares X the price per share which defines the total value of the Co. It was only a few yr.s ago a common topic of market speculation who would become the very 1st trillion $ company, now that several have breached (at least temporarily) that psychological number it's been sort of forgotten about. Both Amazon and Microsoft make much or most of their money on cloud services. Apple makes most from it's "recurring revenue stream"--monthly fees for services not hardware anymore as one might think. All 4 are worth considering to own long term, I'm in MSFT and will get back into AMZN again. I'd suggest you owe it to yourself to dip your toe in the market, just a few shares perhaps at first, in a company you have confidence and conviction in. It's still the best way for most of us to grow/multiply our hard earned savings over time.

@bangerbangerbro IF that sounds compelling your first response would likely be: "I don't know where to start!" Fortunately it's far easier and cheaper today than a couple decades ago. One simply opens an online broker account, it's free until you buy/sell a stock then you pay a modest transaction fee of maybe 4 to $7 regardless of the size of purchase/sale. Then transfer $X into broker account from your bank account and your on your way. Once you purchase a few shares, maybe just one share in a few different companies--you will automatically begin your self education on the topic as you'll be invested, however small, and become at least a little interested in market news, strategies, etc. (Pardon unsolicited advice from a stranger)
