Google’s parent company Alphabet is now the most valuable company in the world, passing Apple in market capitalization today in after hours trading.
This is the first time since February of 2010 that Google has passed Apple in value. The Cupertino-based iPhone maker has held the top spot since 2013 when it passed Exxon Mobile, but thanks to a strong earnings report today, Alphabet has rocketed to the top.
