Tech titan Apple is worth more than all of Britain’s biggest listed companies combined, just two weeks after becoming the first US firm to be valued at $2tn. Investors rushed to buy shares in the maker of iPhones and iPads after it implemented a four-for-one stock split on Monday. In contrast, London’s FTSE 100 — which is light on attractive technology businesses — has lost nearly a quarter of its combined value since the start of the year, partly due to a stronger pound.
