Nvidia became the first publicly traded company to achieve a market value of $4 trillion on July 9, 2025. The chipmaker saw a 20% growth this year, enabling the company to surpass Apple and Microsoft in reaching the $4 trillion milestone. Apple saw a drop in stock value after President Trump’s hardware tariffs, while Microsoft and Nvidia continued to trade places throughout the year.
The chip manufacturer makes the majority of its money through data center revenue, which includes its work with AI. According to CNN, Nvidia’s chips power various data centers for companies such as Microsoft, Amazon, and Google, which use the chips to power their AI models and cloud services. Spending on AI infrastructure rose substantially in 2025 and is expected to continue doing so for years to come, according to The International Data Corporation.
Despite being widely known for its gaming hardware, Nvidia’s gaming revenue makes up only a small portion of the company’s total revenue.

The company’s data center revenue makes up more than ten times the company’s gaming revenue, at least in the latest quarter.
AI has begun making its way into gaming hardware as well. Nvidia’s RTX 50 Series uses AI enhancements, wielding Nvidia’s DLSS 4, which supposedly wields AI to boost FPS, reduce latency, and improve image quality.
