Apple doesn't own a CPU manufacturing factory itself (yet?), but it has 
invested large amounts of extra money into other companies that do own 
such factories to improve and enlarge their capabilities, so may well 
be at least a good sized shareholder in those companies.

There have been vague rumours about Apple opening it's own factory to 
produce Apple CPUs, but that could simply be a misundestanding of TSMC 
buidling a factory in Arizona, probably with help from Apple.
