Nvidia Hits $4 Trillion as China Ban Lifts

Nvidia has become the world's first $4 trillion company, surpassing Apple amid soaring demand for its AI chips and robust revenue growth, even as most U.S. stocks declined following an unexpected inflation rise to 2.7%. The company continues to dominate the AI chip market, buoyed by heavy investment from tech giants like Microsoft, Meta, Amazon, and Alphabet. The U.S. government has reversed previous export restrictions, now allowing Nvidia to resume shipments of its H20 AI chips to China, potentially unlocking a $50 billion market in the region. This decision is seen as a significant positive for Nvidia and the broader AI semiconductor supply chain. Ongoing trade tensions and tariff threats from President Trump continue to inject uncertainty into global markets. As Nvidia’s meteoric rise shifts the landscape, investors increasingly prioritize rapid growth and AI innovation.
