Apple and Microsoft Surpassed: Nvidia Achieves Historic Market Value of 4 Trillion Dollars

The boom around artificial intelligence is driving Nvidia to a historic record value.

On July 9, 2025, Nvidia became the first publicly traded company worldwide to surpass the threshold of four trillion US dollars in market capitalization. The stock of the US chip manufacturer rose by 2.5 percent in early trading, reaching a new all-time high.

Nvidia benefits from the AI boom

The company's rise is closely linked to the rapidly increasing demand for artificial intelligence. Nvidia supplies the high-performance chips used in the data centers of major tech companies like Microsoft, Google, and Amazon. In the last quarter alone, Nvidia achieved a revenue of 44.1 billion US dollars – an increase of 69 percent compared to the previous year.

Leaving the competition behind

At the beginning of the year, Apple was considered the most valuable company in the world with around 3.9 trillion dollars. However, trade conflicts under the Trump administration recently led to declines. Microsoft also had to concede to Nvidia in recent months. Analysts like Dan Ives from Wedbush Securities see Nvidia as the central driver of the "AI revolution."

Difficult start to the year, strong recovery

Between January and April 2025, Nvidia's market value temporarily fell by 37 percent. Reasons included export restrictions for AI chips to China and competition from the Chinese start-up DeepSeek. Since April, however, the stock has strongly recovered, gaining almost 74 percent.

Future outlook remains optimistic

According to CEO Jensen Huang, the global demand for AI technology is just beginning. Analysts from Loop Capital even predict a valuation of six trillion dollars for Nvidia by 2028. Currently, Huang is one of the ten richest people in the world, according to Bloomberg.
