Apple was founded in 1976 by Steve Wozniak, Steve Jobs, and Ronald Wayne with the goal of selling a personal computer designed by Wozniak. After promising growth in the 1980s, Apple came under considerable pressure from their arch-rivals Microsoft who dominated the personal computer market of the 1990s and early 2000s. Apple then found a niche by introducing their famous Apple Mac laptop, followed by the 2007 iPhone and 2010 iPad, securing the company a dominant position in the global tech market.
Apple has been listed on NASDAQ since 1980, and company insiders Arthur Levinson and Tim Cook retain significant numbers of shares, alongside Vanguard, Blackrock, and Berkshire Hathaway. The stock is one of the most popular traded shares worldwide and tends to reflect price moves in the overall tech sector, of which Apple is a significant component. The business continues to release new iPhones annually as well as newer products such as the wearable Apple Watch.
