nvidia and apple
In the rapidly growing world of Artificial Intelligence (AI), Nvidia, the largest chip maker, has suffered a major setback. After the fall in the US stock market on Friday, Nvidia is no longer the most valuable company in the world. In its place, Apple has once again secured the first position.
Nvidia had remained the world’s largest company continuously since May 2025, but on Friday the company’s shares fell by about 3.7%. After this the company’s market cap decreased to about $ 4.8 trillion. On the other hand, Apple shares saw a slight increase of 0.4%. With this increase, Apple’s market cap exceeded $4.9 trillion and it again won the crown of the world’s most valuable company.
Why did Nvidia shares fall?
Experts say that at present the confidence of investors in companies related to AI infrastructure has weakened a bit. There has been huge investment in the AI sector in the last few years, but now investors are wondering whether this investment has reached its peak. This is the reason why many investors are withdrawing money from AI companies and investing in companies considered safe.
China’s AI startup raises concerns
The news from China is also believed to be a major reason for this decline. According to reports, China’s AI startup Moonshot has created a new and very advanced AI model. It is being claimed that this model can give tough competition to American AI companies like OpenAI and Anthropic. Both these American companies extensively use Nvidia’s AI chips to run their AI systems. In such a situation, investors fear that if new AI models start performing better with less resources, then the demand for Nvidia’s expensive AI chips may reduce in the future.
