This July 9, 2025, Nvidia crossed an unprecedented border: $ 4,000 billion in market capitalization. A historic summit, never reached by any other listed company. This symbolic threshold is not just a stock market record, it devotes a global tilting: that of a digital economy towards a world structured by artificial intelligence. While the markets align with the calculation giants, Nvidia is an engine of a new era, where the algorithmic power redefines global economic balances.
In short
- NVIDIA becomes the first listed company to reach a valuation of $ 4,000 billion.
- The NVDA share price reached a historic summit at $ 164.32 before closing at $ 163.36.
- This historical breakthrough is fueled by the rise of artificial intelligence and market confidence.
- Despite a fall of $ 600 billion at the start of the year, Nvidia has an exceptional financial performance during this year.
NVIDIA enters financial history
Nvidia continues its flight, chaining records with disconcerting regularity. This Wednesday, July 9, the NVIDIA action reached a historic summit of $ 164.32, propelling the valuation of the company beyond the unprecedented threshold of the $ 4,000 billion, according to Data relayed by Google Finance.
In the following hours, the title closed slightly behind at 163.36 dollars, bringing capitalization to 3,980 billion dollars. This unprecedented breakthrough allowed Nvidia to get ahead of two heavyweights of world tech: Microsoft ($ 3,740 billion) and Apple ($ 3,150 billion).
“Companies now direct their expenses to artificial intelligence, it is clearly the future of technology,” said explain Robert Pavlik, portfolio manager at Dakota Wealth in New York.
This symbolic crossing is based on a dynamic both speculative and based on solid fundamentals. In just six months, Nvidia overcome a series of obstacles, including a loss of valuation of $ 600 billion in January, to sign an extraordinary market performance. The key data confirm this trajectory:
- 24.4 billion actions in circulation;
- Intra-day capitalization: $ 4,000 billion, before falling slightly to $ 3,980 billion in post-cloth;
- Income growth (T1 2025): $ 44 billion, up 26 % over one year;
- Quarterly net profit: $ 19 billion;
- The performance of the NVDA action in 2025: +21.3 %, against +6.5 % for the S&P 500.
Beyond this on-chain data, Nvidia embodies the massive repositioning of markets towards artificial intelligence technologies, relegating the classic Big Tech, and even cryptos, to an observer role in the face of this reallocation of unprecedented capital.
When a business exceeds a whole ecosystem
Beyond stock market performance, what attracts attention is direct comparison with the Crypto universe. On the date of the NVIDIA record, the total capitalization of the Crypto market reached $ 3,530 billion, less than the valuation of the company.
In detail, Bitcoin, yet again close to its highest historic, caps at $ 2,200 billion in Market Cap, well below the Californian giant. This imbalance is indicative of a deep readjustment in capital flows. “Nvidia continues to move forward and stands out as an early winner of artificial intelligence”, underlines Art Hogan, strategist at B Riley Wealth.
Formerly star of GPU mining processors for cryptos, Nvidia has reinvented himself with formidable efficiency in IA infrastructure. This tilting is not without effect for the blockchain ecosystem, which is now relegated to the second line in terms of financial traction.
It is not a simple technological duel, but a shock of temporalities: the AI responds to an immediate demand from companies, where the promises of the blockchain, although always promising, still require consolidated and large -scale use cases.
In the short term, this situation could strengthen the attractiveness of AI values to the detriment of cryptos. However, a more nuanced reading invites you to see an opportunity for convergence: the integration of artificial intelligence in blockchain protocols could give a second breath to web3 projects. NVIDIA, with its technological expertise and its precedents in mining, could become a structuring actor in the crypto landscape … but on another land.
