American chipmaker Nvidia briefly overtook Apple to become the world’s second-most valuable company by market capitalization on June 5 before dipping back into third place.&nbsp;
The movement occurred as Nvidia’s capitalization surged to over $3.01 trillion, pulling it within a stone’s throw of Microsoft’s first-place cap of $3.1 trillion. 
Not to be outdone, Apple retook its position as U.S. markets opened on June 6, climbing back into second place with a valuation of $3.007 trillion as of the time of this article’s publication. In the same time frame, Nvidia remains in third place at a valuation of $2.973.
These numbers represent new all-time highs for both Nvidia and Apple as well as the NASDAQ and S&amp;P 500 with further movement expected in the coming days.

Microsoft has maintained its lead and currently remains the most valuable company of all time by market capitalization. However, a shifting global technology landscape combined with impending product launches, partnerships and potential regulatory action could cause shake-ups throughout the leaderboards.

Ultimately, Nividia could stand to reap the greatest benefits from surging AI stocks in the 2024 market. Its graphical processing unit (GPU) chips have shown steadily increasing demand as the go-to hardware platform for developing AI. 
Not only do Microsoft and Google use Nvidia chips but so do other industry leaders, such as OpenAI, Amazon and Elon Musk’s xAI.
