Nvidia Nears $4 Trillion, Set to Break Records

The market capitalization of Nvidia reached $3.92 trillion on Thursday which positions the company to become the most valuable business in history. The chipmaker experienced a 2.4% share price increase to $160.98 during morning trading which temporarily surpassed Apple's previous record of $3.915 trillion from December 2024.

The company leads high-end AI chip design which positions it as a fundamental supplier for artificial intelligence infrastructure development across the world. The market demand for Nvidia's advanced processors keeps growing because Microsoft Amazon Alphabet and Meta are expanding their data center investments.

Nvidia's market value has increased from $500 billion in 2021 to reach nearly $4 trillion which surpasses the combined value of Canada's and Mexico's stock markets. Microsoft holds the second position with $3.7 trillion while Apple ranks third with $3.19 trillion.

The valuation levels that existed only a few years ago would be impossible to predict according to Joe Saluzzi from Themis Trading. The rapid acceleration of the AI arms race demonstrates itself through this valuation.

The stock market surge has positioned Nvidia as the industry leader among semiconductor companies because investors predict the company will maintain its dominance in AI supply chain operations. The company's shift from leading gaming hardware to becoming a dominant force in AI has established new standards for market leadership within the technology industry.
