Sorry, I was trying to explain why I was providing additional statistics.

It's technically a stock vs flow difference. Not trying to correct, just expand.

The better comp for market cap would be US capital stock I think. The St Louis Fed puts it at around 60 trillion, which also puts Apple at ~1.6 percent of the economy.

It blows my mind that 0.3% of the worlds "effort" goes to apple products.

Thanks!
