The market cap of Nvidia exceeded $330 billion one day due to demand for chips used in artificial intelligence.
Microsoft’s $69 billion AI investment played a huge role in the market boost of Nvidia wherein AI has been a key focus of digitisation.
Despite the impressive gains, Nvidia's stock could face volatility as a result of broader economic and geopolitical challenges.
Nvidia’s stock market value increased by $330 billion within a one-day trading session in late July due to increased demand for its artificial intelligence processors. This record-breaking increase became a new record for the company surpassing its previous one-day gain of $277 billion in February 2024. The spectacular rise in the market capitalisation of Nvidia shows that the interest of investors in such companies remains high at present times because artificial intelligence is one of the promising trends for development.
Microsoft’s Influence on Nvidia’s Gains
Nvidia's recent market surge is emblematic of the broader trends within the AI industry. As companies like Google Cloud offer subsidized access to Nvidia GPUs for startups, the demand for Nvidia’s technology is expected to continue growing. However, with such rapid growth comes the potential for significant fluctuations, making Nvidia a closely watched stock in the months ahead.
The recent increase in the Market value of Nvidia was to a large extent due to activities at Microsoft. Microsoft updated the public on its spending on artificial intelligence by noting that it would invest $69 billion in capital expenditure for fiscal year 2024, which was 60% more capital expenditure in the same area.

This spending is primarily towards growth with the cloud and artificial intelligence being key sources of the increased revenues. Cloud segment , which is its fastest-growing segment, recorded a 21% YoY increase in its quarterly revenues to $36. 8 billion. This positivity sparked across the technology sector and more so, amidst key players in AI hardware manufacturing; hence, Nvidia.
Investor Interest and Potential Risks
Well, one has to remember that the stock of Nvidia has been rapidly growing over the last weeks and it has not fallen below the radar of big investors. Former House Speaker of the United States of America, Nancy Pelosi is among those who have occupied considerable posts. Pelosi built up her stake in Nvidia by acquiring 10,000 shares on 26 July for between $1m and $5m. Notably, on the same day, she also disposed of 5,000 shares of Microsoft.
However, investors ought to be careful since there are risks that the stock price may increase and decrease frequently, which is a concern with Nvidia. The broader technology market has seen its stock valuations rise significantly and investors have cashed in their gains. Furthermore, fluctuating economic instability, geopolitical risks, and its apprehensions over China's dominance in global markets make the future growth volatile for Nvidia.
