Ondrej Holzman Although Apple saw its first year-over-year decline in the last quarter, according to the magazine Forbes is the most valuable brand in the world even this year, the manufacturer of iPhones.
Apple is in the lead ranking found himself for the sixth time in a row when Forbes estimated the value of his brand at 154,1 billion dollars. Google, in second place, is worth almost half that, at $82,5 billion. The top three is rounded off by Microsoft with a value of $75,2 billion.
There were five technology companies in the top ten of the ranking, in addition to the above-mentioned, the fifth Facebook and the seventh IBM. Coca-Cola finished fourth. Apple's big rival, Samsung, ranked eleventh with a value of $36,1 billion.
The Californian giant, which produces iPhones, iPads and Macs, thus remains the undisputed most valuable brand in the world in 2016. This corresponds to the position on the stock exchange, where - although the shares have fallen in recent weeks also due to worse financial results - Apple's market capitalization is still more than 500 billion dollars. However, it has fallen slightly in recent days and is vying for the top spot with Alphabet, the parent of Google.
After all, this is a ranking of brands and not of companies :/
Watches like wellies, right?

Google is now the most valuable company in the world.
Apple still has the most valuable BRAND in the world!
You are right, I subscribed, everything is fixed now. Thanks!
However, even on the stock market, Apple is currently the first again, in any case, there has been a fierce battle with Alphabet in recent days :)
