Tim Cook is laughing all the way to the bank.
Apple is now worth more than $700 billion after its stock ticked up in early trading on Tuesday.
The company's value topped the mark thanks to a torrid 2014 run for its stock, which is up more than 49% in 2014, including a 7-for-1 split in June.
[seealso slug=http://sale-online.click/2014/10/31/trent-reznor-apple-project/%5D%3C/p%3E%3Cp%3EWith Apple maintaining its position as one of the most popular hardware-makers in the world, analysts believe it could become the first first trillion-dollar company.
Apple shares were 0.9% higher in mid-morning trading on Tuesday, which technically put its market capitalization -- the value of all its outstanding shares -- just north of $701 billion.
Since Cook took over as CEO of the company in August 2011, Apple shares have more than doubled in value, up more than 135%.
