Apple’s stock price hit an all-time high today of $614.48, making it the perfect time for shareholders to sell off some stock. That includes five of Apple’s top executives, who have cashed in a total of $314 million in the last few days that was previously awarded to them in 2008, according to filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. CEO Tim Cook leads the way, selling a total of 200,000 shares — for an impressive $119,715,170 pay out.

But he’s not the only one…



Apple continues to explode on the stock market, retaining its rank as the world’s most valuable company — beating out oil giant Exxon. Apple’s market cap is currently sitting at $572 billion, which is 20 points more than Google and Microsoft’s combined.

CEO Tim Cook cashed out a total of $130 million during the month of March, after gaining $11 million from selling shares earlier this month. Not bad, on top of his yearly salary.

With another earnings call quickly approaching, we expect Apple to report some pretty impressive numbers that will help its continued raid on the stock market. Not only will the company report impressive iPhone sales, but sales of the new iPad should be setting new records.

The Cupertino-based company’s stock price was sitting at roughly $400 per-share at the time of Steve Jobs’ death. Look how fast it’s risen, showing no sign of slowing down.
