Apple dethrones Nvidia as world’s most valuable company, ending the chipmaker’s long run at the top

Apple’s move reflects investor confidence in steadier earnings and lower capital spending as Nvidia’s shares fell 3.5%, Reuters said.

  • Apple has overtaken Nvidia to reclaim the spot as the world’s most valuable publicly traded company, ending the chipmaker’s nearly year-long reign at the top.
  • The shift follows a pullback in Nvidia's stock, which fell over 3.5% as investors grew increasingly cautious about the high capital spending and rapid returns on AI infrastructure.
  • Apple’s market capitalization surged to roughly $4.88 trillion, while Nvidia’s valuation dipped slightly behind to around $4.80–$4.86 trillion during Friday trading.
  • Wall Street sentiment toward Apple has turned bullish as investors view the company as better positioned to monetize AI through ecosystem integration, services, and hardware upgrades rather than heavy data center capital expenditures.
  • The milestone comes ahead of major internal changes for Apple, including CEO Tim Cook preparing to step down in September and hand control to hardware chief John Ternus, alongside positive momentum for its revamped Siri rollout.
