Nvidia is the first company in the world to reach a market capitalization of four trillion dollars
Nvidia’s transformation from a company that primarily manufactures gaming hardware to an AI company is taking place at a rapid pace.
This Wednesday, the company achieved something that no other company has managed before: a market capitalization of four trillion dollars.
On Wednesday, the company’s share price temporarily jumped to 164.42 dollars and thus above the four trillion mark. At the end of the trading day, it was up 1.76% to 162.82 dollars, which drove the stock market value back below the mark.
With a market capitalization of 3.97 trillion dollars, Nvidia remains the undisputed leader among the world’s most expensive companies. In April 2025, Nvidia’s share price was still below 87 dollars due to the customs issue.
The list of the world’s most expensive companies is dominated by firms from the United States. In second to sixth place are Microsoft (3.74 trillion dollars), Apple (3.15 trillion dollars), Amazon (2.36 trillion dollars), Alphabet (2.15 trillion dollars) and Meta (1.84 trillion dollars), further companies from the USA. Saudi Arabian Oil Co., a non-US company, only follows in seventh place.
Gaming takes a back seat
The latest Nvidia quarterly figures confirm a trend that has been observed for some time: gaming now only accounts for around ten percent of the group’s total turnover.
In the first quarter of 2025, Nivida earned around 3.8 billion dollars in the gaming segment, while the data center segment contributed 39.1 billion to Group revenue.
Even the record sales in the gaming segment, which increased by 42 percent within a year, could not change this.
Work on new graphics cards continues to progress. Nvidia recently unveiled the smallest RTX 5000 graphics card, the RTX 5050. According to a leak, Nvidia is also working on three new graphics cards: RTX 5080 Super, RTX 5070 Ti Super and RTX 5070 Super.
