Nvidia becomes first $5 trillion company

SUMMARY

Nvidia’s shares rose 3.4% to approximately $207.85, reaching a new intraday high. This pushed its market cap from $4.89 trillion to $5.06 trillion, making it the first publicly traded company to exceed a $5 trillion valuation. Nvidia now ranks as the world’s largest company, ahead of Microsoft and Apple.

Over the past decade, Nvidia's stock increased by more than 44,000%. A $1,000 investment in 2015 would be worth $441,000 today. The company, once valued at over $10 billion in 2015, has thrived due to AI demand.

Nvidia plans to build seven supercomputers for the U.S. and has taken a $1 billion stake in Nokia for 6G development. CEO Jensen Huang's net worth has surged to an estimated $174.4 billion.
