Why would 'All money' not add up here on that second attachment? Am I being thick?
It's a fair question, they're more comparisons then slices of the overall pie. What's not shown are all the debt obligations. For instance the stock market valuation doesn't account for the fact that half the companies in it might actually be in debt.

Realistically you'd show the $150-$200 trillion in true global debt obligations, most of it govt to future govt obligations, in the 'all money supply' category. Actually the current USA's own unfunded welfare state/spending/debt obligations is something ridiculous like $100-150 trillion in the coming decades.

Basically there's an extra £200Tn floating around that's nothing more than IOU's scribbled on beer mats.

Quite a feat for a guy who's been dead for 8 years.

I think Tim Cook deserves a lot of credit for what he has achieved since Steve passed. The business is quite different to what it was when Steve was in charge.

Although Apple is now valued at more than $1T it happened well over a year ago for the first time and has happened for others as well since so isn't really "news".

What this guy has achieved in recent years is very impressive: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satya_Nadella

Couldn't help chuckle seeing Peter post about Apple being worth $1T after he tweeted this just the other day.

Seems even the best are not immune to it :lol:

Point taken :lol:

They passed $1tn a little while ago, this is the landmark in sterling.

I still remember the meeting I had in Houston all those years ago when we were discussing the impending bankruptcy of Apple. A salutary lesson in there.

Sorry I'm not following you … are you suggesting their success is only related to products since his death? So the iPod, iPhone, iPad etc had nothing to do with it!

No, just questioning whether their turnaround has much to do with him. He was a great designer who captured the zeitgeist of the new millennium (and certainly made a few bob) but the share price really took off after he left.

Lotsa cash, huge profit margins.

On the question of Steve, there’s a new book that has just came out: "After Steve: How Apple Became a Trillion-Dollar Company and Lost Its Soul".

See this interview with the author where some of it is discussed :https://twit.tv/shows/triangulation/episodes/430
