Apple is set to hit a new all-time record high Friday, taking its market value past $1.4 trillion, as data shows surging iPhone sales in China along with easing trade tensions.

Apple shares were marked 0.21% higher in early trading Friday to change hands at $310.40 each, after hitting a record high $311.40 at the opening bell, a move that would take its one-year gain to a staggering 102.5% and value the Cupertino, California-based tech giant at just under $1.4 trillion.
