Shares of Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) hit an all-time intra-day high of $534.62, likely due to the announcement of next week’s San Francisco event at which an iPad 3 is expected and — perhaps — a new version of Apple TV as well.

The Nasdaq Composite posted a high of 2,988.59 before falling back. Apple accounts for nearly 11% of the index, so it’s no big surprise that Apple is pushing it higher.

With about an hour of trading left today, Apple is up 1.5% at $533.47 in a 52-week range of $310.50-$543.62. The Nasdaq composite has given a little back, now resting at 2,978.25.
