Apple's current market capitalization is as large as the combined market capitalization of all German corporations.

The DAX 40 represents Germany's 40 largest publicly traded companies, but 'all German corporations' would include thousands of smaller listed companies and private corporations. However, the DAX companies represent the vast majority of total German market capitalization.
Currency conversion: Apple's market cap is in USD ($3.755 trillion as of Feb 13, 2026) while German market cap is typically measured in euros. At February 2026 exchange rates, this equates to approximately €3.5-3.6 trillion.
The claim actually understates the comparison - Apple's market cap is approximately 1.6-2 times larger than all major German companies combined, not merely 'as large as'.
The MEP could not have known the February 2026 data published after the session date of February 11, 2026. However, data from late 2025 would have shown a similar ratio.
