Nvidia became the first company in history to reach a market capitalization of US$4 trillion. Driven by the rise of artificial intelligence, it left Applebehind and consolidated its dominance in the technology sector.
With this milestone, the graphics chip company marked a turning point in the global financial markets, surpassing the market value that Apple had achieved.

An unstoppable surge driven by AI
Nvidia's growth is tied to the development of generative AI, which triggered the demand for high-performance chips. Its products are key to training models like those from OpenAI and other technology startups.
In just four months, it went from US$3 to 4 trillion. At the beginning of 2024, it was worth half that: its valuation doubled in less than a year.
A stock that leads the market
So far in 2025, Nvidia's shares have accumulated a 20% increase. For comparison, the Nasdaq index grew only 6% in the same period.

On the record day, the stock hit a peak of US$164.42 and closed at US$163.30, with a daily gain of 2%.
Leadership that hasn't been free of challenges
Jensen Huang, the company's CEO, warned in May that export restrictions to China were "a failure." According to him, they harm the U.S. more than the Asian ecosystem.

Even so, the market continues to trust Nvidia's key role in global technological advancement.
The competition isn't standing still
At the beginning of 2025, Nvidia suffered a sharp drop due to the progress of the Chinese startup DeepSeek. That company achieved competitive models using fewer resources, even Nvidia chips.
Back then, the U.S. company lost about US$600 billion in capitalization in just a few days.

What analysts think about this historic moment
For Adam Sarhan, from 50 Park Investments, "Nvidia is the strongest stock in the market". He highlighted that the company's growth reflects the strong momentum of technology and artificial intelligence.
Meanwhile, Kim Forrest, from Bokeh Capital Partners, warned that these records "tell us everything about the present and nothing about the future." This is a way to temper the widespread enthusiasm.
