## Resource

Apple just reclaimed the title of most valuable company on Earth, with a market cap nearing $4.9 trillion, dethroning Nvidia after a stunning 22% stock surge this year. Investors are applauding Apple’s cautious AI strategy, which helped them sidestep costly tech bets while still delivering innovation. Their upcoming earnings report this Thursday will be closely watched to see if they can scale AI features across devices without sacrificing profits. Meanwhile, Microsoft, Amazon, and Meta are all ramping up AI spending, shifting investor focus away from pure infrastructure players like Nvidia — who still holds a strong position despite a more modest 7% gain. On a leadership note, Apple CEO Tim Cook is stepping down on September 1st to become executive chairman, with hardware chief John Ternus taking the reins.
