Nvidia has once again claimed the title of the world’s most valuable publicly traded company, overtaking Microsoft with a staggering market capitalisation of $3.76 trillion.
This milestone follows a 4% surge in Nvidia’s share price, closing at an all-time high of $154.10.
The rally was fuelled by renewed investor enthusiasm for artificial intelligence. Analysts citing it as a ‘Golden Wave’ of generative AI adoption driving demand for Nvidia’s high-performance chips.
The company’s meteoric rise has been underpinned by its dominance in AI hardware, particularly its GPUs, which power everything from ChatGPT to enterprise-scale AI models.
Since bottoming out in early April 2025, Nvidia’s stock has soared more than 60%, far outpacing the broader tech market.
Founded in 1993 to produce graphics chips for gaming, Nvidia has transformed into the backbone of the AI revolution. Its accelerators are now essential infrastructure for companies like Microsoft, Meta, and Google.
