Apple's stock has reached an all-time high, bringing the company's market value close to $4 trillion following the launch of the iPhone 17 series. The surge is fueled by strong consumer demand, with the new models outperforming the iPhone 16 series by 14% during the first ten days of availability in the US and Chinese markets.

Apple shares jumped 4.5% to $263.7 per share, increasing the company's market value to approximately $3.91 trillion, solidifying its position as the second most valuable company globally after Nvidia.

This performance highlights robust demand for Apple products and investor confidence in the company's ability to sustain growth despite fierce competition in Asian markets, particularly China and India. Analysts anticipate a strong showing in the upcoming financial quarter, with optimistic profit forecasts for December.
