Nvidia has become the first company to surpass a $5 trillion market value, following a more than 3% rise in its stock on Wednesday.
This historic achievement highlights the company’s remarkable transformation from a niche graphics chip maker to a global leader in artificial intelligence.
The surge comes after CEO Jensen Huang announced that Nvidia expects $500 billion in AI chip orders and plans to build seven new supercomputers for the U.S. government, strengthening its central role in the AI revolution.
Nvidia’s rise is not just financial—it is symbolic. Once primarily associated with video gaming, the company now powers cutting-edge technologies ranging from autonomous vehicles to generative AI.
Its ascent to the $5 trillion mark marks a new era in which AI infrastructure is as critical as traditional resources like oil pipelines, cementing Nvidia’s position at the forefront of technological innovation.
