It is calculated by multiplying the current stock price by the total number of shares outstanding. For example, if a company has 2.34 billion shares outstanding and its stock price is $66.66 per share, its market cap would be $156 billion (2,340,000,000 x $66.66). Investors often use the market cap as a quick estimate of a company\u2019s overall value and as a factor in determining whether to buy a stock. Stocks are often categorized by market cap: mega-cap ($100 billion-plus), large-cap ($10 billion-$100 billion), mid-cap ($2 billion-$10 billion), small-cap ($300 million-$2 billion), and micro-cap (less than $300 million).<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Have you read?<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/ceoworld.biz\/2023\/12\/25\/these-us-cities-have-households-earning-more-than-90000\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" rel=\"follow\">These US cities have households earning more than $90,000<\/a>.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/ceoworld.biz\/2023\/12\/24\/the-30-best-real-estate-markets-in-america-for-2024\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" rel=\"follow\">The 30 Best Real Estate Markets in America for 2024<\/a>.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/ceoworld.biz\/2023\/12\/24\/these-are-the-weapons-the-us-sold-to-taiwan\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" rel=\"follow\">These Are the Weapons the US Sold to Taiwan<\/a>.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/ceoworld.biz\/2023\/12\/24\/these-are-the-cheapest-places-to-buy-a-home-in-every-state-2024\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" rel=\"follow\">These Are The Cheapest Places To Buy a Home in Every State, 2024<\/a>.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/ceoworld.biz\/2023\/12\/24\/unexpected-tumbles-hollywood-a-listers-unforeseen-box-office-flops\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" rel=\"follow\">Hollywood A-Listers Unforeseen Box Office Flops<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As of February 18, 2025, with a market cap of $3,674 billion, Apple topped the global ranking of the largest companies by market cap.
