Microsoft overtook Apple as the world's most valuable company on Thursday after the iPhone maker began 2024 with its worst start in years due to growing demand concerns.

Apple took a $6 billion hit to its sales during the fiscal fourth quarter due to persistent global supply chain problems

A surge in Microsoft's shares nearly unseated Apple as the world's most valuable company, a day before the iPhone maker reports its quarterly results.

Microsoft's shares jumped 4.2 per cent to end at a record $323.17, elevating the software maker's market capitalization to $2.426 trillion, just short of Apple's $2.461 trillion valuation

The global video and electronic games market will generate $152.1 billion in 2019, up 9.6 percent over last year, Newzoo reported.

Microsoft surpassed Apple briefly a few times this week, but didn't close on top until Friday, with a market value of $851 billion to Apple's $847 billion.

Shares of Microsoft rose 0.6 per cent to end the week at $110.89, putting its market capitalisation at $851.2 billion.

Apple tops the list at over $1 trillion after crossing that threshold in September.

Even if they can gain a foothold, which is hard enough, there is practically no way they will be able to overtake Chinese companies.

Other wearable devices are also expected to see growth, the report said, including head-mounted displays such as the Oculus Rift or the Microsoft HoloLens.

Android overtook iOS in terms of mobile ad revenues on Opera's platform, though iOS still ranks on top in terms of monetisation potential.

As per the 2015 Harris Poll Reputation Quotient, Samsung's reputation is higher than Apple in US consumers' eyes.

Apple, which dominated the top position for three straight years, saw its brand value fall by 20 percent.

Lenovo Group is on track to overtake Hewlett-Packard as the world's biggest PC maker by sales as soon as this year.
