Nvidia surpassed Microsoft to become the most valuable publicly traded company in the world because of its AI revolution leadership. The market capitalization of Nvidia reached $3.45 trillion after its stock price increased 3% to $141.40 which placed it above Microsoft’s $3.44 trillion value. The remarkable market value increase demonstrates how Nvidia has experienced explosive growth because of rising demand for its AI chips.
The stock price of Nvidia rose by 24% throughout the last month despite worldwide trade issues. The company achieved the number one position in January before reclaiming it this week because of its essential role in transforming the technology industry.
The success of Nvidia stems from its AI accelerator hardware which operates systems used by OpenAI, Meta, Microsoft, Google, Amazon and Elon Musk’s xAI. The major technology companies invest substantial funds in AI infrastructure because they depend on Nvidia’s chips to process large amounts of data.
Nvidia generated $44.06 billion in revenue during its fiscal Q1 earnings period with a 69% annual increase and 96 cents in adjusted EPS. Since its establishment in 1993 Nvidia has undergone a complete transformation from gaming to AI which has established it as the unchallenged leader in silicon technology for AI applications.
