Apple Inc. (US0378331005) held at $319.70 at the latest close, with a market value of $4.665 trillion and a 52-week range of $225.95 to $344.57. The shares also traded with a reported 38.6 million-share volume in the latest snapshot, giving investors a clean read on where the stock stands on August 30, 2026.
July results set the tone
Apple's July 30, 2026 quarter delivered $109.42 billion in revenue and $2.02 in diluted earnings per share, while revenue rose 16.4% year over year from the prior period. Net margin came in at 27.62%, and the quarterly dividend was $0.27 a share.
Those numbers keep the company in a different category from most large-cap tech peers. The combination of $109.42 billion in sales and $2.02 in EPS also gives the stock a fundamental base that can support higher valuations when iPhone and services demand stay firm.
Valuation and trading context
At the current market value of $4.665 trillion, Apple remains one of the largest public companies in the world, and the latest quote sits only 7.23% below the 52-week high of $344.57. That gap matters because the stock is still being priced close to its upper trading band rather than at a deep discount.
For context, the same latest quarter also showed a gross margin of 48.65% in one market snapshot and 50.1% in another report tied to the July results, underscoring how much margin strength is still part of the story. The main comparison is simple: revenue expanded 16.4% year over year, while earnings per share came in at $2.02 versus $1.57 in the prior-year quarter.
iPhone and services
Apple's product mix still matters because iPhone and services drive the widest investor attention. In the latest quarterly commentary, services revenue was highlighted as a major contributor to the quarter, while the hardware base continued to support scale across the franchise.
Price level to watch
The stock closed at $319.70 on August 28, 2026, after trading between $315.45 and $322.37 during the session. That leaves Apple stock firmly inside its recent range as the market weighs the $109.42 billion quarterly print against a valuation that remains above $4.6 trillion.
