Apple is worth more than Greece’s Annual Gross Domestic Product.
Not the entire country’s assets. Duh!

I thought with one of those, holding your breath would be a good thing!

January 25, 2012 at 2:46 pmMerely stating the facts:
CUPERTINO, California—January 24, 2012—Apple® today announced financial results for its fiscal 2012 first quarter which spanned 14 weeks and ended December 31, 2011. The Company posted record quarterly revenue of $46.33 billion and record quarterly net profit of $13.06 billion, or $13.87 per diluted share. These results compare to revenue of $26.74 billion and net quarterly profit of $6 billion, or $6.43 per diluted share, in the year-ago quarter. Gross margin was 44.7 percent compared to 38.5 percent in the year-ago quarter. International sales accounted for 58 percent of the quarter’s revenue.
Fanboy or not, regardless of your thoughts on the company and its products, the fact is that Apple at the moment is hugely successful. From the Tech Crunch article: “At over $400 billion, Apple is now worth more than Greece, CNN Tech says.”

Who’s to say that Apple isn’t a strong growing company? I was responding to a poster joking that Greece wouldn’t last forever. And being the cradle of our west civilization, I guess they will last as long as anybody here.
The thing omitted in your report is that Apple is worth more than Greece’s Annual GDP. That’s a fact.
