AAPL vs CRM
By Alex · Tickerpine
Apple Inc. vs Salesforce, Inc., side by side — the numbers that matter, in plain English. No “winner” hype; you decide.
| Metric | AAPL | CRM |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $283.78 | $158.37 |
| Market cap | $4.17T | $129.71B |
| P/E ratio | 34.4 | 18.4 |
| ROE | 141.47% | 16.91% |
| Profit margin | 27.15% | 18.73% |
| Revenue growth | 16.60% | 13.30% |
| Dividend yield | 0.38% | 1.11% |
| Beta | 1.09 | 1.15 |
Green = the more favorable figure for that metric (lower P/E, higher ROE, margin, growth and yield). Not a recommendation.
