Apple nadmašuje Nvidia i postaje najvrednija tvrtka na svijetu

Apple has surpassed NVIDIA to become the world's most valuable company, according to recent stock market movements. On July 27, 2026, Apple’s shares rose 0.66% to $335.40 on the Nasdaq, pushing its market capitalization to $4.92 billion. This marks a significant shift in the rankings of the world’s top companies, with Apple reclaiming the title from NVIDIA, which had held it since mid-2025. NVIDIA, meanwhile, saw its stock price drop by 4.75%, marking its lowest level since July 8. The decline brought its market value down to $4.76 billion, reflecting growing concerns among investors about the profitability of investments in artificial intelligence and increased competition from Chinese firms in the chip industry. Despite this downturn, NVIDIA remained one of the leading technology companies in terms of valuation. This change in leadership was not entirely unexpected. Apple had briefly overtaken NVIDIA on July 17, 2026, but NVIDIA retained its position until now. The current surge in Apple’s stock comes after the company reached a market cap of $4 billion on October 28, 2025, becoming the third major tech firm to achieve this milestone. It followed NVIDIA, which hit the mark in early July 2025, and Microsoft, which achieved the feat on July 31, 2025. Analysts have pointed to several factors contributing to Apple’s rise. A robust ecosystem, high profit margins, aggressive share buybacks, and accelerating revenue and earnings growth have all played roles. These elements were particularly notable ahead of Apple’s quarterly results announcement on July 30, 2026, which likely bolstered investor confidence. Ignacio Mieres, head of research at XTB, noted that these factors have allowed the market to once again reward Apple with a premium on quality. He emphasized that the combination of financial strength and strategic moves has enabled Apple to regain its position as the most valuable company. The broader implications of this shift highlight ongoing changes in the tech sector. As AI investment trends evolve and new competitors emerge, the landscape of the most valuable companies continues to shift. Investors are increasingly looking for stability and long-term growth, traits that Apple appears to embody more strongly than some of its rivals at this time. Looking forward, the performance of both companies will depend on how they navigate upcoming challenges and opportunities. With Apple poised to release its latest financial figures soon, further movement in their stock prices could provide additional insights into the direction of the tech industry. For now, however, Apple stands firmly at the forefront of global corporate valuation.
