Showcasing America’s continued leadership in global innovation, American tech giant Nvidia has become the first company in world history to reach a staggering $4 trillion market value.
See the tweet below.
The achievement marks a stark contrast to tech competitor Apple’s struggles with AI integration, as Nvidia dominates the critical infrastructure powering the artificial intelligence revolution.
Nvidia’s historic success places it among the world’s most valuable companies, surpassing tech giants such as Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, and Alphabet.
The California-based chipmaker’s market valuation hit the $4 trillion mark when its shares rose 2.5%, reaching over $164 each.
This remarkable milestone represents a tenfold increase in Nvidia’s value since early 2023, when it was worth roughly $400 billion.
What makes this American success story even more impressive is that just two years ago, Nvidia’s market value was below $600 billion.
The company’s explosive growth stems from its dominance of the GPU market, which powers AI applications – a technology initially designed for video games that now forms the backbone of America’s technological edge.
The company’s remarkable performance has directly benefited American investors and retirement accounts, with Nvidia shares surging nearly 20% this year and an astonishing 1,500% over the last five years.
In its most recent quarter, Nvidia reported a $18.8 billion profit and a 69% revenue surge from the previous year, demonstrating that American innovation continues to lead the world.
In addition, Nvidia’s success comes despite challenges from the administration’s restrictive policies on technology exports.
The company faced a substantial $4.5 billion charge due to Trump’s restrictions on chip sales to China, a market CEO Jensen Huang described as effectively “closed to U.S. industry” worth approximately $50 billion.

Tech analyst Dan Ives called this milestone a “huge historical moment for the U.S. tech sector.”
Nvidia’s CEO Jensen Huang, now worth an estimated $142 billion personally, has emerged as a key figure in the AI revolution, often referred to as “the godfather” of artificial intelligence.
Under his leadership, Nvidia has secured its position as the dominant provider of AI infrastructure that powers services from tech giants like OpenAI, Amazon, and Microsoft.
Besides, the company briefly faced setbacks in April due to tariffs announced by President Trump, but quickly recovered with strong quarterly profits.
While Nvidia continues its meteoric rise, Apple appears to be struggling with AI integration in its products, leading to speculation about potential acquisitions to regain momentum.
This contrast underscores the importance of staying ahead in technological innovation rather than resting on past accomplishments.
