While becoming the most valuable company, Apple’s stock trajectory showed a 49% increase, lagging behind competitors like Nvidia, whose shares tripled, and Meta, which witnessed a near 200% rise. Amazon, Alphabet, and Microsoft also outpaced Apple with gains of 83%, 59%, and 57%, respectively.
Despite this, Apple reported impressive financial results for fiscal year 2023, with $383 billion in revenue and a substantial $97 billion in profit. However, challenges emerged as global economic slowdown affected hardware sales, leading to a 3.4% decline in iPad revenue to $28.3 billion and a significant 27% drop in Mac division revenue to $10.2 billion.
