Nvidia nears $6 trillion market cap as AI demand drives semiconductor rally

Nvidia AI chips semiconductor industry market capitalization stock buybacks

Nvidia is approaching a historic $6 trillion market capitalization milestone, driven by sustained demand for artificial intelligence infrastructure. The company's stock has recently hit record highs, supported by a massive $150 billion stock buyback program approved by its board. Analysts remain optimistic, with some price targets suggesting significant further upside.

In the broader semiconductor sector, AMD has joined the $1 trillion market cap club and announced plans to substantially increase its chip supply by 2027 to meet rising AI demand. AMD CEO Lisa Su emphasized the importance of expanding the supply chain in Taiwan to support CPU and GPU production. Meanwhile, TSMC continues to see record demand, with its shares hitting new intraday highs as it remains the primary foundry for major AI players like Nvidia and AMD.

The surge in AI-related technology has also propelled major indices, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite reaching new historical highs. However, some market analysts warn that this growth is highly concentrated in a small group of AI-linked companies, noting a lack of broad market participation.
