Alphabet Nears $5 Trillion Market Cap, Closing Gap with Nvidia for Top Valuation

Alphabet's market capitalization is approaching $5 trillion, driven by strong Google Cloud revenue and AI growth, positioning it to potentially overtake Nvidia as the world's most valuable company. Nvidia's valuation has dipped below $4.9 trillion amid concerns over AI growth momentum, with its upcoming earnings on May 20 seen as a key factor. Market indicators suggest a close competition, with Alphabet's stock rising significantly over the past year while Nvidia's gains have been relatively flat recently.
