Apple again loses $2 trillion market valuation

Apple again loses $2 trillion market valuation.

The sub-$2 trillion valuation comes just a few days after Apple recovered from a similar plunge on Sept. 3. During a widespread tech industry sell-off, Apple bled nearly $180 billion in market capitalization — the worst one-day loss for any company ever.

AAPL's closing price of $112.82 results in a market valuation of $1.96 trillion. That's reached by multiplying the share price by the number of outstanding shares.

Apple's stock was down 6.73% on the day after the closing bell Tuesday.

The Cupertino tech giant in August became the first publicly traded U.S. company to hit a $2 trillion valuation. Since that day, Aug. 19, Apple's share prices have dropped 2.5%.

Apple's current share price has been readjusted due to the recently completed four-for-one stock split on Aug. 31. The split gave each shareholder three additional shares for every one held, each at 25% of their original value.
