Bizarre billionaire side projects
SILICON Valley giants have become a gargantuan force on Wall Street, as demonstrated by Apple recently topping US$1 trillion in stock-market valuation.
But should we fear that a new tech bubble is ready to burst? Here are some questions and answers about the sector:
WHAT DOES THE TECH SECTOR REPRESENT ON WALL STREET?
Apple ended the formal trading week worth a history-making US$1 trillion. Meanwhile, four other tech firms rounded out a list of the five most valuable companies based on share prices.
Amazon was worth US$889 billion; Google-parent Alphabet was valued at US$856 billion; Microsoft weighed in at US$828 billion, and Facebook was valued at US$513 billion.
Together, these companies account for about 20 per cent of US GDP, and more than Germany’s entire GDP.
Combined, the tech stocks account for more than 25 per cent of the value of the Standard & Poor’s 500, the index that includes the 500 largest companies listed in the United States.
