Amid a modest drop in the company's stock price this year, Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL) still retains the title of the world's largest company.

But, one other tech giant closed the gap this year.

Market data has Apple with a market cap around $609 billion, while Alphabet (Nasdaq: GOOG) is hovering around $535 billion following a 45 percent gain in the company's shares this year.

Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT) is third at $453 billion.

Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK-A) and ExxonMobil (NYSE: XOM) might be swapping places for a bit, with each company valued around $330 billion.

Amazon.com (Nasdaq: AMZN) is next at $325 billion and General Electric (NYSE: GE) comes in at around $300 billion.

Notably, Amazon is up nearly 120 percent for the year, GE is up around 25 percent, and Microsoft notched a 20 percent gain. ExxonMobil, meanwhile, suffered a 12 percent loss as commodity prices continued to get hit.
